This is Nate's. He did OK until he was 9 months old and then he "fell off" in medical lingo.
Now, at 2 years old, he is firmly back on. He's 5th percentile for weight (above) and height (not shown but equally impressive).
23 pounds 12 ounces. 32 1/2 inches. Head - large and full of brains.

He has been on the budesonide-Splenda slurry (his "sweet medicine") for about 2 1/2 weeks now and the change is marked. I think he must have actually been uncomfortable a lot of the time. Because suddenly, it's like having Nate in high-def with Dolby digital surround sound.
When we bring him home from school at night he doesn't want to whimper and cling to me. He wants to run around, giggle, make up games, and do a truly hysterical penguin impression. I think it's been 2 days since he burped and told me he had a "yellow spill" in his mouth. We have had a few very fun family evenings just playing. It's nice. It's nice to have a baby who is well.
Yaaaaaaaaay! So glad that he's had such a great response.
