Six Year Old Stats

We took William in for his six year old well-child check and he continues on his normal growth trajectory.   He is in the 20th percentile for weight at 41 pounds and the 10th percentile for height at 3 feet, 7 inches (43 inches).   He's never been greater than 50th percentile for weight and 25th percentile for height, so he is tracking well according to the pediatrician.  I didn't realize how short he was relative to his peers already until I saw all those really tall boys at the Kindergarten Celebration!   We're going to try to push more milk and more veggies this summer to see if he gets a growth spurt!  :-)  But let's face it, he's going to be a short kid based on genetics.
