really? a 5 yr old should just be learning this???

We went to Kaitlyn and Kaylee's well child visit/ health assesments appointment today and here are some question the doctor asked the girls that surprised me, (because I can't believe this is all that is expected and because it seems like this stuff is really... I don't know...too easy for even their ages?? Am I wrong??"

Kaitlyn (5 yrs old, going into kindergarten)
"Do you know your colors?"
"do you know your numbers?"
"do you know the alphabet?"
"do you know your body parts?"

Kaylee (soon to be 3yrs old)
"do you know your colors?"
"can you count to 3"
"do you know where your heart is?"
to me "does she speak in 3-4 word phrases?"  <---- this one seemed the most silly to me! Anyone that knows Kaylee know that she will carry on a regular conversation with most any adult!

Kaitlyn is in the 87th percentile for her height
Kaylee is in the 95th!!! percentile for her height
We have either some supermodels or WMBA stars on our hands!
The best news of all was that neither of them needed any shots, Kaitlyn is good until age 10 (besides flu shots of course), and Kaylee until age 4. woo hoo!

Alos, the instructor posted our first workout for todays crossfit class... doesn't look all that bad, but we shall see... (and it says 'for time' , I'm not sure what that means...)
Run 400m

then 21-15-9 Reps of:
Squat
Pushup
Deadlift
Finish with 400 meter run
