Brandon is pretty much off the growth charts, coming in GREATER than the 97 percentile for both height and weight! Still trending in his growth curve from birth....
ht: 47 in
wt: 57 lbs
BMI:18
Now, I have to say that I was a little concerned that I have such a big five year old however Dr G. said she has no concerns over his weight, especially given his height but....just to make this momma feel better she is going to measure his bone age (by taking an x-ray of his wrist)! She wasn't surprised that he is almost a whole "head" taller than his preschool classmates.
Brandon is right on track developmentally, with good hearing and passed his eye exam today! He was a little unsure of the resident pediatrician (finishing a rotation with our peds office) but opened right up when Dr G finally came in! He couldn't wait to tell her about his Snap Circuits and that he likes to build things with his Legos. He even told the resident ped that he was going to be an electrical engineer when he gets bigger......we'll see!
