15 Month Old Check Up

We took the boys to their 15 month checkup today. Ok, we were a little late late on this one. Shut up! You try raising twins! Ahem… anyhow.

All anyone wants are the details and photos, so I’ll quit the editorializing and get down to biznatch.

Milo
Weight: 25 lbs (50th percentile)
Length: 313/4 inches (50- 75th percentile)
Head circumference: 47.8 cm (50 – 75th percentile)

Levi
Weight: 23.15 lbs (25- 50th percentile)
Length: 31 inches (25- 50th percentile)
Head circumference: 47 cm (25- 50th percentile)

They were champs even though they got two shots today! They got chicken pox and the DTAP vaccines.

The doc said they were growing really well. He watched them walk and said they were walking just right. Milo’s bow legs will probably straighten out over a few years. And there is even a pretty good chance that their outie belly buttons (caused by small umbilical hernias) will turn into innies.
Other things we might see soon…
- Removes articles of clothing
- Has four to ten words
- Points at objects and names body parts
- Shakes head “no”
- Kicks and throws a ball
- Draws “pictures”
- May sort shapes and colors
- Shy with strangers
- Uses “no” and “mine” to asset independence.
- Hits / bites if excited, frustrated, or having difficulty communicating
