Six-year check-up

We took Grayson to the pediatrician today for his annual physical and everything checked out great. He came in at 47.2 lbs. and around 47.5 inches tall which puts him at the 50th percentile in weight and 75th percentile in height. 

The doctor usually asks him a series of questions like, "Do you play sports?" or "What is your favorite food?" I thought he would say strawberries and pizza, but to our surprise Gray told him his favorite foods are broccoli and carrots. I about fell out of my chair. 

The doctor pressed further by asking, "Out of mac and cheese, hamburgers or pizza which do you like the best?" And Gray responded, "I like them all!" That part wasn't a surprise to us. He is good about eating a variety of foods and generally does eat pretty healthy stuff. That said, he doesn't always eat quickly and can be annoyingly slow, but it has gotten better lately thanks to a few growth spurts. 

All-in-all we are very blessed to have such a healthy, happy boy.
