Alright, I took a series of photos to illustrate his weight.

I am sooo relieved to hear that he probably doesn't have any weird hormonal issues.

Now I'm curious to know if he is in fact overweight, and whether I should cut down on his protein/overall caloric intake after all. I realize he is still quite young, but my impression was that he's overweight.

If he has 6 months worth of growing left to do, I'm excited to see just how big he gets!

Here are the photos - he didn't feel like laying his belly flat on the floor (he kept running around), so I had him cling onto my chest to show how big his belly is when flattened.
