He did it! He did it!

It only took 18 months. Nolan is finally on the growth chart for weight AND height! Dr. Conner took one look at him today and commented, "Well, I see he has discovered food, huh?" Nolan was stripped down to his diaper and his chunky legs (probably inherited from his Mama) and his chubby tummy were very visible.

Fully clothed, Nolan weighs 23.8 pounds, which is the 23rd percentile (I think...it's hard to remember all these numbers!) He is 30.7 inches, which is the 7th percentile. He is definitely still a short little guy. I don't think he is ever going to be tall...I think he is built a lot like TJ.

Nolan is learning new words all the time...new ones for this week include "Shishies" (fishies) and "Suzy". He calls both Maggie and Suzy "Suzy", so apparently we need to work on saying Maggie's name next. He still won't say Sam's name, though, which is odd since Sam is his most frequent playmate. He rarely plays with TJ, but has a whole song made up for TJ ("TJ! TeeJay! TEEEEEEE JAAAAYYYYY"). It's very creative.
