Is this normal?

Ok this has been bothering me but not enough to make an appt to the ped and risk bringing home some germs during this cold and flu season!! So I have noticed my sons head shape and it has been bothering me. The bone above his ear protrudes and I dont really notice this on any other child his age. It seems that it protrudes more on his left side. Now granted we buzz cut him so I don't know if I just see more of his head shape but I dont notice this on other kids with a buzz cut. I also feel like it is getting worse but is it that I just am noticing now?!?!? I never noticed until now but it is there in earlier pics. So here is a picture I would love your input, is this normal or should I be concerned??? Here is a pic (sorry about the banana in his mouth =)
