Elias Update

-We had Elias' 2 year checkup, and of course he is a happy and healthy boy! He is only 26 pounds (which is in the 23 percentile) but is 36 inches tall (which is the 90th percentile).
-He has become rather obsessed with pumpkins after our visit to the pumpkin farm. He points them out everywhere we go.
-His speech has just exploded in the last few weeks. He has really began to use full sentences all the time, rather than just occasionally. He is growing so fast! I think I am finally ready for another baby, but we still plan to wait another year.

There are so many other things that have happened lately, but this happens to be a very busy time of year for us, so it's all I can do!

so wait...about percentiles, which is better? big or small?

Percentiles are related to averages. His height is in the 90th percentile so he is taller than 90% of kids his age, but 75% of kids his age weigh more than he does. There is not really a better, but Gus is pretty proud that Elias is tall like him!
