Corn Update: Week 5

Hey. A corn update today ... and a report from Owen's three year check-up with Dr. Rosa.

First the corn. It may be another two feet taller than last week. Same with the grass and thistle surrounding it. I carried Owen to his spot and back out so that his legs wouldn't be scratched.

It's the kind of thing a father does after the news of a very healthy three year checkup. Dr. Rosa says Owen looks great! He's 39.5 inches tall and 39.5 lbs. (85th and 90th percentile, respectively). She said a child coming in at the 90th percentile would normally raise some red flags about being overweight, but not Owen. Healthy, lean, full of good energy ... and very smart.

We couldn't agree more.
