I took Ethan for his 2-year-old checkup today. He weighs 26 lbs, 10 oz and is 33 ¼ inches tall. I guess the CDC has recently updated the growth charts and now Ethan is in the 15th percentile in height instead of the 10th! That's a pretty big deal when you come from a family of shorties! He's also in the 50th percentile for weight now, so I guess that's why the pediatrician didn't seem too concerned that he lost a little weight. We talked about his terrible eating habits and the doctor said it all seems typical for his age. After the exam, Ethan was sitting on the doctor's lap and reached for me and said "I want Mama." The doctor seemed very impressed by that and commented that he wasn't supposed to do that yet (sentences, I guess). I am always a proud mommy when the pediatricians say things like that. I know I'm not perfect as a mom, but I guess I am doing something right!
It's been a while since I've taken pictures of Ethan with his lion and zebra stuffed animals, so I thought I'd better do it on his birthday. I'm not sure how much longer we will have the yellow chair (sniff, sniff). So far, he still likes to be rocked before bed and hasn't started climbing out of his crib, so we will keep it...for now.
