Kolby.
At his two year appointment, he is 35 inches tall, and weighs 35 lbs. That put him in the 50 - 75th percentile for height and off the charts for weight. As in, not chartable. As in, weighs more than 100 percent of other two year olds. And do you know what his pediatrician said?! "He is so trim now!" That was before he knocked her over while giving her a hug.
I noticed it was getting increasingly difficult to shove his foot into his size 6 Extra Wide shoe. Finally, today we made it to the mall with the sole purpose of getting Kolby shoes. Size 8.5 Wide. Sole purpose, get it!
Notice a difference? The gray one is the new shoe. Why yes, that is black sharpie marker on my table and no, magic eraser didn't work.
And because Stride Rite had a buy one get one half off sale, the cutest green crocs complete with a football thingy. (What do you call those?) Actually, I fully intended to buy him the crocs too, I just settled on green because of the sale.
He doesn't even look chunky anymore...maybe those other 2 year olds are just scrawny...
ReplyDeleteSo cute. He's built like my Sam.
ReplyDeleteThe Crocs things are called Jibbitz. I wish I'd invented them, cause I'd be rich! I mean, what is the markup on those things?I'm guessing 500%
He is cute! At Lillian's last check up, she weighed in at a whole 21 lbs. She will be 2 May 6. I totally classify her in the "scrawny" category. :)
ReplyDelete"More than 100% of other 2-year-olds"-- that cracks me up. :) Percentiles aren't so useful at the tails of the distribution, are they? He is such a cutie!
ReplyDeleteEven his feet are getting skinnier down from an ExtraWide to a Wide. Kolby - tell your mommy to feed you :)
ReplyDeleteI always laugh at the dr. when he tells me the stats - Drew is "off the charts" for his height! He is about Ally's weight - my 5 yr old! She is also skin and bones!
ReplyDeleteIf it won't harm the finish on your table, try alcohol (as in rubbing alcohol) on the Sharpie marker spot. It's worked for me on laminate tile flooring.
ReplyDeleteTry toothpaste with baking soda to get the sharpie off. It works on walls.
