15mo checkup |

Height: 32¼ in (90th percentile)
Weight: 23 lb 12 oz (50th percentile)
No surprises. Healthy boy. Two shots.
Doctor W says Benjamin has a 2-year-old's vocabulary but not yet a 2-year-old's linguistic development, because he's only starting to combine words. He said a 15-month-old usually has a vocabulary of 5–10 words, so he was impressed that Benjamin has 60-something words and 20-something signs. He said linguistic development was the only sort of early development that correlated to intelligence. He seemed somewhat surprised that the bilingual household wasn't slowing him down. We, of course, think it's speeding him up.
