The Stats

Gavin grew so much this summer.  He was our little-big boy before we left for Colorado, and then school started and he was this giant kid!  His 2nd grade teacher is a tad on the small side, if he grows like he did this summer he may be as tall as her before the school year is up (see photo). As it is he already comes up to Barb's armpit - YIKES!  And as always his character remains the same: kindhearted, funny, sincere, a wonderful leader, and a very caring and loving boy to all who know him.  He has a 6th sense for those in need of a hug, a smile, or a joke - as his parents we're always learning from him!  He makes us all better people.

Height 51.5" = 77%

Weight 65 lbs = 69%

The stats

As a family we were recently discussing the topic of nicknames.  When Liam was born we called him "peanut" because he was significantly smaller at birth weight than Gavin, and because with a 2 1/2 year old as our only gauge of size, Liam did look like a peanut.  He thinks it's cute and he doesn't mind it, when he's 15 it may not be the same story, but for now I'll take it and continue to call him peanut.

His recent doctors visit solidified the nickname as well.  The pediatrician was a bit worried, but we aren't.  If he's anything like Jason he'll grow several inches between high school and college and probably be taller than all of us.  OR...he'll just live up to his nickname and the other ones that have followed:  surfer dude, Gavin's brother with the good hair, perfect hair, etc.

Did you know, the optimal height for a surfer is 5'9"...you do now!  If we have to travel to Hawaii often to visit Liam in his surfing competitions, we can live with that!

And here is our feisty little Lola, who isn't so little.  She stacks up quite well to her brothers.  And the best part was she didn't have to get any shots :)

Lola age 3 ~ 30 lbs ~ 37.4"
Gavin age 3 ~ 38 lbs ~ 38.25"
Liam age 3 ~ 30 lbs ~ 38.9"

The stats!

Little man isn't so little anymore.  So handsome, so funny, and the biggest heart of any human I've ever met.  Love watching him grow and becoming an even better human every day.  He makes us all better people by being in our lives.

STATS
Weight 58 pounds
Height 48.4 inches
Head - really big, because he's really smart :)

He's most excited that he doesn't have to get another shot until he's 11 years old.  It's the simple things in life.

The stats

Liam turned 4 in December.  

He may not be the biggest kid in size in the family, but his personality is often the biggest.  And we love him to pieces for it.

	Height	Weight
Liam	41” - 59%	36 lbs - 50%
Gavin	42” - 74%	42 lbs - 90%

The Stats

Lola seems so much more grown-up as a 2 year old than her brothers were; but I supposed that's what you get with the third child.  She's always trying to keep up with her two big brothers.  She is by far the best eater in the house (ok, Jason is really #1, but Lola is a close second) but you would never know it based on her weight stats.

Here are the comparisons:

2 YEARS OLD

	Height	%	Weight	%
Lola	35.43”	85%	24	25%
Liam	35.04”	65%	28	50%
Gavin	35.75”	83%	32	95%

She's still running for first place in height in this family.  She is SO girly loving to play tea party, color, and play with mommy's jewelry.  But she is also SO tough running, climbing, getting bruises & cuts trying to hang with her brothers.  We say it all the time, but she was and still is the perfect addition to our family!!!

Gavin has been waiting for an eternity to turn 6.  He could hardly stand the excitement leading up to his LEGO birthday party.  He starts Kindergarten in the fall and is more than ready!

The Stats

Little miss Lola is 19 months old and growing up way faster that we anticipated.  She's still our little petite thing, but tall like daddy.  She can count from 1-10, she has about 60% of the alphabet figured out, can recognize colors, animals, letters and all kinds of other things.  She's a Tom Boy when she wants to be, but also love to play dress up with mommy's jewelry and wear pretty dresses.

notice the boys are wearing the same shirt - just 2 1/2 years later - ha ha.

The Stats

Lola is now 15 months and definitely the leader of the pack when it comes to height!  She's so advance with her vocabulary too.  She will attempt to repeat just about anything you ask her to.  About 40% of the repeats sound familiar, the remainder are Lola Language, which we are trying to learn ourselves.  She has embraced sign language as the boys did and that definitely helps with the language frustrations.  Liam  and Lola are the best of buds because Gavin is at school 3 days a week.  Someone actually asked me if these two were twins.  She is so loving and sweet but definitely has a rough and tough side to her - all good things in a Hendricks girl :)

The twins

Lola's 1 year stats

The family princess turned 1!!  And this giant is FAR from a princess.  She's rough and tough and tries every day to keep up with her rambunctios brothers.  If you ask us she does a really good job.  We're beginning to think she may be the athlete of the family...we'll see.  Either way we're so, so, so happy Miss Lola was added to the family, she has been the perfect addition!!!

Weight = 18 lbs (17%...had to question if she was a Hendricks)
