Since When Did Skinny Kids Become Underweight?
Parker is skinny-skinny! He doesn't look too thin, I don't think, but he's quite slender (he can even still wear some 3T clothes). I think he's about 37.5 lbs and about 44.5"?? According to this BMI site, though:
A 5 year old (male) child who is 37.5 pounds and 3 feet and 8.5 inches tall, has a body mass index of 13.3, which is below the 5th percentile and is considered to be underweight.
WTF??
Here he is back in June (he is sick, so he looks a little off in color ...) -- does he look underweight??!??:
