off the charts

We’re back from Kai’s checkup, and he is officially the most perfect baby ever. He weighs in at 16 pounds, 10 ounces, and 27 inches tall. That places him in the 90th percentile for his weight, and he is off the charts for his height. He is a linebacker in the making.

We spent this weekend in Fort Lauderdale. Isaac was in the Landmark Forum for Teens this weekend, and Erin and I took Kai around South Florida and had a great time. The Water Taxi and the Anne Kolb Nature Center were a couple of our fun excursions. Kai loved being on the boat and walking around the nature center with me. He also got to feel the sand between his toes for the first time, and took a nice nap on the beach.

On Sunday night, we made an excursion to Le Tub, the winner of GQ Magazine’s Best Hamburger in America award. This place was even featured on Oprah. Isaac and I are burger aficionados, and let me tell you this was a phenomenal burger. First off, the ground sirloin patty was as big around as my head, and over an inch thick. It had a wonderful charred flavor and was perfectly juicy. Did I mention it was gi-normous? It was delicious. It’s almost worth the three-and-a-half hour drive just for the burger. Google it for yourself and see.
