fat kid

kaiya (like a lot of t18 kiddos) has always struggled with her weight. she is really good at losing it, not so hot at gaining tho. at least that used to be the case. this school year the teacher has had to add another snack time into the day b/c of another student's particular needs. she asked if i would like her to try and give kaiya an extra snack at that time and i said sure, why not? well apparently that's all it took for kaiya to start putting on tons of weight! she has been feeling really heavy lately and i was thinking that it's because i'm coming home so tired. everyone else that picks her up was saying that she is really heavy as well tho...so i finally gave in and got out the scale. the lil girl weighs between 37 & 38 pounds. she wouldn't keep her feet up in the air so i couldn't get an accurate reading, but when she moved them up a little bit the scale would fluctuate between those two. my munchkin is turning into a lil fatty! well, maybe not quite...but she is packing on the pounds pretty quickly for herself.
