After Hunter's steady growth for the first 3 1/2 years of his life, I was somewhat surprised to find the, in the past 6 months, his height had only grown a scant half-inch.

However, during the same time period, his shoe size went from a 9 to a 10 1/2.

Last night, for dinner, he ate a burrito, half a cup each of cooked broccoli and carrots, and a huge bowl of oatmeal that included strawberries and half a banana.

I'm glad we're getting into warmer weather, because, with shorts, I won't have to worry about whether or not his ankles are sticking out of the bottom of a new pair of pants each week!
