Kittens from the same litter can all vary in size, be bigger or smaller than their parents. If the vet had said he is healthy and he's eating, playing and being normal, I shouldnt worry. He could be growing faster than the other two and they will catch up later.

Healthy weight for cats, just like it is for humans, is a range. The other two might be on the skinnier side while the third is on the heavier side of the range. Reasons might be more genetical composition from different parents, one is more or less active (read: burn more calories) than the others, etc Also male cats' healthy weight range is higher than females'.
