weighty issues


Ok. So I know that kids are supposed to be cute and chunky and that they eventually work it off...BUT is there a limit? So we were at a friends house for dinner and we thought it would be fun to weigh Norah to see how big she was compared to my friends kids. She weigh 32 lbs!!! That was 5 lbs. more than her 2 1/2 year old and only 2 lbs. less than her almost 4 year old! I looked this up on a growth chart and she is 60% for height and well over 100% for weight...maybe even 110%. Ah! Does Norah have a problem? Should I be concerned? Should I do something? And if so, what? I've thought about limiting her milk intake or maybe watering down her whole milk but I don't know. Help.
On the other hand, I am a professional worry-wart and tend to over-dramatize situations, so maybe I just need to chill out and see what happens.
Thoughts???
