Growth Spurt

Remember back when Mikey had his 5 year check up and he had gained a little more than 1.5 lbs. over the past year?  Our doctor suggested that we needed to fatten him up as kids typically gain between 2 and 5 lbs. a year.  Well we went back for our follow up a few months later and he got some stellar reviews.

Essentially, if I had just waited two more weeks for his check up all would have been fine.  Literally the week following his annual check up he hit a growth spurt and was eating round the clock and sleeping great.  I swear this growth spurt caused him to gain 2.5 lbs. and grow another 2 inches!  We were checking his weight regularly and I know he hasn't really gained any new weight between his growth spurt and when we went back to see the doctor 2 months later.

So his new stats are as follows - 37.5 lbs and 42 inches tall.  Putting him in the 25% for both categories.
