Medical Check-up

Tyler received a clean bill of health at his 2-year well-child visit today. The latest measurements:

• Weight: 29 lb 10.5 oz (68th percentile)
• Length: 35-1/2 in (74th percentile)
• Head Circumference: 19 in (38th percentile)

Statistics show that your height at 2 years old is typically half the height you will be as an adult. Based on these measurements that means Tyler will be 5'-11" as an adult. We find that hard to believe (I'm 5'-3" and Michael is 5'-6") but it is possible Tyler got some recessive height genes from my side of the family. Only time will tell!
