... is 19 months and a week. I finally took him in for his 18 month check up. I was waiting to get an extra months worth of fat on him. What did they tell me? He is skinny. This I know. He is also highly energetic, active, and doesn't sit still. He weighs 20lbs, 12oz, which puts him right back down in the 3 percentile. Yes 3. Not 30, not 13, it is 03%. I'm not worried; this time my pediatrician wasn't even worried. He is gaining weight while staying right on that 3% curve. His height however has always stayed between 50 and 75%.
Today for lunch all he would eat was ketchup and sour cream, some grapes and a pickle. That is why he is such a big boy:). He definitely didn't get my appetite genes. I tried to succumb to the foods normal kids like, chicken nuggets and french fries; he hates them, won't even touch them. Oh well. There are foods that he will eat, and he usually eats better than he did today at lunch. How did I end up with such a picky eater?
Here are some cute pictures of my boy:
"RAAR!" As soon as I pull this towel out he starts growling like a lion.
Maybe his artwork didn't show up very well in the picture, but our wall has a very nice display.
