15 Month Checkup!

My babies are little kids now and it's so sad. Today we went to the doctor's appointment for their 15 month visit and everything went well. The had their MMR shot today which is the shot that supposedly causes autism so I'm a little on edge hoping that there aren't any noticeable side effects over the next couple of days. I found myself trying a little harder to teach them how to count today. I'm not sure the logic behind it... maybe if they can count this young, then they don't have autism?!?!? I don't know. I'm a nut job but at least I own it. Here are their stats according to the growth chart:

Cal Bear
Weight - 23 lbs. (50th percentile)
Length - 32 inches (90th percentile)
Head - 46 cm (50th percentile)

Wyatt
Weight - 20.5 lbs. (5th percentile)
Length - 30.5 inches (30th percentile)
Head - 47 cm (45th percentile)

Yeah... my monkey is a shrimp and girlfriend is a giant. But, they do pass out the best shrimpy and giant-sized kisses that you could imagine!
This weekend we spent a lot of time shopping and deep cleaning the house. It needed to be done like you wouldn't believe. I feel like we made a dent, but only a dent. We have tons more to do around here.
On Saturday, I was trying on a dress that I bought for vacation that I wasn't sure whether I was going to keep or not because I was afraid it might make me look pregnant. Anyway, it's a really cute black and white print but I just wasn't sure if the cut of the dress was right. So, I walked out of the bedroom with it on to show Brent and when Callie saw me, she pointed her little finger at me and said, "Moooooooo!"
She thought I was a freaking cow! Hahaha! I mean, it was semi-mortifying and semi-cute because I guess she identifies cows as being black and white! (Actually, I think it was more mortifying than cute.) I'm sure it's only the first of many times she will let me know that I am fashionably challenged!
