18th Month Stats:Height: 34 inches (91%)
Weight: 26.25 lbs (56%)
Head: 18.7 inches (42%)
In the last four months, his weight has gone from the 83rd percentile down to the 56th. We were a little worried about that, but the doctor says it's totally normal. He's just getting tall and skinny. He grew nearly two inches in the last two months. I understand where he gets the "tall" from, but not sure how the boy wound up with "skinny!"
All in all a good visit with a very well behaved 18 month-old, although he is still fighting a sinus/ear thing he's had for a month now. The doctor finally decided she thinks allergies could be the culprit, so in addition to starting the THIRD antibiotic he's been on this month, Baby Zog is now also taking Zyrtec daily. We hope this will help. Poor boy.

wow! he and addie weigh the same! maybe addie will start to slow down in the next 5 months! have i mentioned that i'm digging the curls on top haircut? gorgeous! i mean handsome! :) is he "all boy" or what, pushing that dump truck around with such focus! hug him for us when he slows down!
Turner finally had his three-year exam today and is 75th% at 38 1/4" and 35.5 lbs. Clearly, the growth will shift and slow in some ways over the next 18 mos. So fun!
