A Growth Spurt, without gaining any weight

This is not such a good thing. Lon got to go to his 5th year well child check up and kindergarten shots visit today. He is 43.5 inches tall. He only weighs 34.5 pounds.  That is almost, if you squint and tilt your head to the side, the 10%.  Which means 90% of the kids in this country weigh more than he does. Height, only 25% of kids in this country are taller.  We need to try to get more food in him. 
He also has 20/20+ vision and his hearing is perfect. 
The most horrible part was when he got his shots. The poor little guy moved his leg at the last minute and the needle ripped across his leg.  The shots did not hurt near as bad as that scratch.
Now he is ready for kindergarten.
