Baby to small?????????

I have a 8 month old almost 9 mo old and he seems to very small for his age. He was born 5 days before my due date. He weighs in at 18lbs. I do not remeber how long he is but he is short I think I will have to check on that but everyone says he is tiny for his age. He did have reflux but seems to be under controll now. he eats solid food but he will only take 6 oz of formula at a time even if I just give him a bottle. Is this normal? I was looking at the growth chart for a boy his age and he only falls in the 10% tile. He is a happy baby and is developing fine( so I think)He is starting to walk and he is happy most of the time. I guess I am just concerned about his hight and weight.send any suggestions thanks
