Welcome all to 2007! Is it just me, or is this decade flying by? Speaking of time flying by, Ayden is already past the 18 month mark… He’s closer to 2 than 1! 
I know you hear it all the time (accompanied by an eye roll), but they really do grow up so fast! I took Ayden to his 18 month checkup yesterday (the first one daddy ever had to miss). No shots needed which was a huge relief for me being there alone with him (since his daddy is the one that has held him still and then comforted him after every shot he’s ever had). He checked out just fine and is progressing nicely. Here are the pertinent numbers:
Weight: 24lb 4oz (25th percentile)
Height: 32in. (40th percentile)
Head: 50cm (95th percentile)
So after a year and a half of life, wouldn’t you think he’d at least begin to grow into his consistently-in-the-90th-percentile head??? I would! But he’s stayed very true to his own growth pattern from the get go - below average weight and height, above average cranium. The pediatrician just keeps assuring us that there must be lots of brains in there! Let’s hope he’s right!
You would never guess his head was so big (or is his body just small?) by looking at him. He is just too cute!!
