He's HOW old??



That's right everyone this little guy is 2, today. He went to visit his good buddy, Dr Brown, for his 2 year check up. When she came in the room, he said "Doctor Brown! Right here!" and jumped up and down with delight. He is now 34 1/4" tall which is the 50% and is 24# which is the 3rd%. It boils down like this--he's average height and skinny. She quizzed me about his eating habits (little does she know that he eats anything that isn't running away or bolted to the ground). I told her that I think he takes after Aron. She wanted to know his height and weight so I told her. She made note that Aron is very thin (yes, Aron, she did say "very thin") and that she would keep that in mind when she looks at his growth curves. She said I could give him whole milk or otherwise try to boost his calorie intake but that it just may be that he's meant to be thin.
Otherwise, he looks good. He's got all of his age appropriate skills and is doing well. He earned a sticker at the end of the exam and she gave him a book. No shots and we went and had a playdate in the park afterward. Does it get much better than that??
