Isaac had his 2 year check up today. The pediatrician was super psyched about his development (physical, cognitive, behavior...) And I was pleased that all of the things he told us we should be doing at this age, we have been doing for some time! Score one for the Valas! Yes!
Weight: 23.75 lbs. 6th percentile
Height: 33 inches. 15th percentile
Although those numbers sound small, they have stayed consistent since he was about 9 months. I don't know why he started out so long and hefty, but as the dr. said a year ago "I think genetics are just catching up!" ha...
The doc also said that at 2 you can pretty well predict their adult height from their 2 yr appointment with a high level of confidence. I was expecting him to say 5 '4 or 5 '5. I am 5'3 and Dave is 5'5. Isaac is only 15th percent so??? But he said 5'8! That's good. I was just hoping he wouldn't inherit my vertically challenged height as an adult! We'll see what ACTUALLY happens, either way, he's adorable enough to pull it off (tall or short!)

He's just like my kids. Start out big and slowly get smaller. It's all genetics though. It's good the doctor isn't worried about it too much. Brooklyn's dr was trying to get me to see a nutritionist when she was a small 2 year old, but I managed to get her to gain just enough weight that they let me off the hook. Glad Issac is consistent in his growth! :)
The charts once predicted I would grow to be 6 feet tall! Ha! I am still waiting for that growth spurt!
Hooray for small-ish yet healthy kids!
