The first thing we’ve bought for Dylan! Couldn’t resist the sale rack at Old N*avy the other day :) Size 2T, 27-30lbs.Â
With our update last week, we received current measurements for Dylan. Here are his stats:
24 1/4 lbs.
33.5 inches tall
18.5 inches head circum.
I looked at an online percentile calculator to see how he compares to other kids his age. For his height and weight, Dylan is in the 3rd percentile for both weight and height…so, 97% of other kids his age are bigger than he is.Â
For fun, I checked Lainey’s percentile stats. Right now, she weighs about 38lbs and she’s 39 inches tall. So, she’s at the 75th percentile for weight, and 37% for height. I also looked back to see how old Lainey was, when she weighed what Dylan weighs now (at age 2 years 10 months). She was 1 year 8 months old. :)
I’d love to find some way to predict, based on a normal growth curve, what Dylan might weigh when we travel to get him. Anyone know how to do that?

Oh yeah…basketball & it’s red…PERFECT!! Sounds like our Dylan will be small…that’s ok!! He’s adorable no matter what size he is!! Sounds like a 2T will the best size to buy for him. I’ve been looking at shirts, etc., but didn’t have any idea what size he would wear. Of course, he’ll HAVE to have a swim suit!! And NO, we’re not getting tired of seeing pictures of water…it looks so refreshing now that it’s getting hotter!! I’ll bet right now as I type this, the kids are in their kayaks! Love ya!

It doesn’t matter what size Dylan is because he will fit PERFECTLY into his brand new family and into all of the arms and hearts that are waiting for him to come home.

Yea, just find out what kids in his percentile range measure at the age you will pick him up- you know what I mean??
