Yep! He's Grown
Phillip is 40.5 inches tall, or at the 53rd percentile. He was born in this percentile and pretty much has stayed there height wise. He weighs in at 40 pounds, tipping the growth chart at 80 percent. Makes sense! He is a compact little boy. Per Dr Shaw his ears, mouth, throat, heart, lungs, and abdomen appear normal.
Developmentally he is pretty average! He say more than 250 words, can talk in sentences, struggles with speaking clearly, and can tell a simple story. He can name all the shapes and colors like a champ. Is learning the alphabet and numbers slowly but surely. He can put together 24+ piece puzzles alone. Physically he tops the charts with climbing, running, jumping, biking, hopping, etc. He does pretty well with fine finger skills too like getting dressed (he is actually better than Amelia at this one), can cut with scissors, build towers, open bottles, and rotate handles. He is just starting to make art work that resembles real life items. He drew me a chicken the other day. It looked like a dino but hey, it was a good attempt.
Phillip is one amazing little boy. His brown eyes are continually sparkling with adventure. He can be kind one moment and kick your bum the next. He gets into trouble but with no mal-intent. He is very curious! Out of the three kids Phillip is a champ at sharing and comforting. I cannot wait to watch and help this amazing little boy grow up. I think he will accomplish much with his sense of humor and Joie de Vivre. A very happy birthday to Phillip Big Boy (Call).
