Jude is called many things right after people meet him, but they almost all tend to be about how large of a baby he is. He is big: somewhere around 16lb. at 3-1/2 months old which puts him above the 90th percentile for his age, so there's no way around that. And he looks quite oversized:
Greg cannot fit his hands around the circumference of that thigh...
But... I think we get it. I think after the 976th time, we realize "OK, he's big". Think about it: parents have absurd guilt complexes about everything, so even if we realize you probably mean he looks healthy and great and I'm trying to compliment you, it still has a little bit of a cringe factor involved when we hear your baby is somehow not normal. Feel free to mention that he's big, but let's not make a long conversation about it, eh?
On the flip side, we are ecstatic that they guy seems so healthy, and thanks for noticing.
