So we went to Riley's 2 yr old well appointment on Friday.
Height: 37 1/4" 97%
Weight: 33 3/4 lbs 95-97%
Head size: 20" 95%
Basically, the pediatrician said he's the size of an average 39 month old!
Ironically, he also told me (without me even telling him about the aggressive behavior at school), that I am going to have to be cognizant as his parent to remind people that he's only 24 months old. He actually described what I had sort of felt like was happening at school - just because he's BIG, people have unrealistic expectations about how much he should talk, how mature he should be, what he can handle emotionally, and his ability to communicate his needs, etc. So to hear that from my pediatrician, made me feel better about the emotions I was feeling around the school thing! I mean the teacher mentioned moving him up to the 3 yr old class! I was like NO WAY! He's BIG, but he's not ready for that! Like I said in the post before....stay tuned!
