[tri-med] Morgan's ped. visit

Well, I got Morgan in for his 4 yr. checkup today.  I
thought he was going to have shots, but he didn't. 
The dr. said they wait until they are 5 yrs. to finish
the series.  Anyway, the best part was how much Morgan
has grown.  He weighs 32 lbs. 10 oz. and is 36 1/4
inches.  The weight thing really pleases me because in
Jan. Morgan weighed just over 25 lbs.  His length
remains under the 5th percentile on the "normal" boys
chart, but his weight in on the chart for the first
time.  He is in the 10th percentile.  And his  weight
for height is in the 75th percentile.  Everything else
was just fine.  As we were leaving the dr. said,
"Morgan you look good.  Keep on amazing me, keep
amazing us all."  (No mention of hypoplastic
genitalia, of course, I didn't ask either.)  Now
tomorrow is our annual visit with the genetics clinic.
 I always enjoy that visit.  They love Morgan so much there.
