Healthy: By using cdc.gov to estimate his BMI, his BMI is 20, putting him towards the upper limits of healthy weight. The best to comment further would be his pediatrician who can place him on a growth chart comparing him with children his age. Growth spurts are common and may influence significantly calculations through height specifically.
