Six Year Check Up

Charlie had his six year well visit today. He measured in at 49 1/2 inches tall (97th percentile) and 61 lbs (96th percentile.) His doctor said that if he continues as he has been, she expects him to be about 6'4". She also said that while his BMI classifies him as overweight, that it is not accurate for children who are extremely tall and that his weight is fine. Otherwise, since Charle has been doing fine in school and has been pretty healthy this year, it was a fairly uneventful well visit. He didn't even need a shot, which he actually complained bitterly about, since he had been hoping to get a toy ;)
