Donovan is still very healthy! He is up to date on his immunizations and won't have to get anymore shots until Kindergarten! Hooray! Here are his stats:
Weight: 27.15 lbs (75th percentile)
Height: 34" (90th)-just to give you a feel for how tall he is, the average 27 month old would be about this height.
Head Circumference: 18 3/4" (40th)
So he is still tall, slimming down a bit, and has a tiny head. We hadn't seen Dr. Jones' nurse in a while, I think she had a baby, so when she saw Donovan she was shocked. She couldn't believe how tall and slender he is getting. The last time she saw him he was still a chubby 9 month old. Someone commented to me the other day that he looks like he is 2 1/2. He seems to be ahead of a lot of kids his age physically, but that is just in nursery. I always worry that he is behind cognitively because he still has a short attention span and doesn't say a lot of words, but he is still normal. It's always nice to hear that my child isn't behind, it makes me feel like I'm an okay mom. I can't find our camera, so I will have to post pictures later, this will have to do for now!

Yay for a healthy kid! I agree that it's nice to know that they're doing okay and you're doing okay. I knew that you and Brad couldn't produce a real chub. He's going to be long and lean just like his parents.
I'd tell you if your child was behind! Glad he's on track!
Don't all small children have a short attention sp... hey, look at those ducks!
Hey, you've seen Brad's baby pictures and video, I think all kids slim down when they can walk/run. He is doing great!( I could be ornery and remind you that Bradley still has a short attention span when it comes to many things.)
