Vinny's 2 year Doctor Appt

We went to Vinny's Dr appt on Friday. The Dr said that everything looked good. His talking is just fine, which is one concern I had.
He was 36 inches and 29.2 lbs. That means that he grew 5 inches and only gained 2 oz since his 18 month appt.
He is in the 64th Percentile for weight, 85th percentile for height and 37th percentile for head circumference.
I talked to the Dr appt the lump behind Vinny's ear. He still said the same thing, that is is just a lymph node. He did say that if I want to have blood drawn to do tests that we can do that, but it would be just for my own sanity, not because he thinks we need it. He has to go back for a shot soon, so, I am going to think more about it, and possibly do it then.
They asked a couple of questions to check his development:
Can he stack 5-6 blocks? Yes.
Can he remove or put on 2 or more items of clothing? Not yet.
Can he say more than 20 words? Yes, he can say nearly 70
Does he regularly sleep through the night? No, but he usually isn't awake, he just comes and crawls into our bed.
He has to go back and get his Hep A shot because they can't do it early, and so it had to be done after the 22nd. Why we didn't schedule his appt for after then, I have no idea, but other than that, he won't go back until he is 3.
