Do you ever feel like your kids are teaming up against you? I feel this way quite a bit. Ally and Cosette have found that they are good at throwing up/spitting up and pooping (very big ones) at the same time. If I notice one has pooped, the other has as well. If Ally throws up on me, Cosette does just as soon as I get Ally cleaned up. After being home only 5 minutes after church, Matt and I had changed 3 poopy diapers. We only have 2 diapered bums! I am hoping to start potty training after Christmas, I might make that a little sooner if they keep this up.

Cosette's 1 week pictures

I know they are a few weeks late in coming, but at least you get to see them, right?

I just put a few on here because I don't have a lot of time right now.

Homecoming Parade

The homecoming parade goes right past our house. We couldn't have had a better spot. Being able to walk out the front door and sit in front of our house to watch the parade and get candy, perfect! Ally didn't know what to think when mommy and grandma told her she needed to wave to everyone going by. She quickly caught on, once they started throwing candy to her. She was loving it, especially once it was over and she was able to see how much candy she got. Most of the candy was going to the high schoolers, so we were excited with how much candy we did get. Ally got so excited about her candy that she took a tootsie roll and tried to eat the whole thing, wrapper and all. Grandma started giving her some of her candy and boy oh boy was she excited. Suckers, tootsie rolls, flavored tootsie rolls, and candy bars!

Cosette slept the entire parade.
Grandma's Birthday!
Ally just had to help open presents. I'm excited for Christmas now. Last year she wasn't too into opening Christmas presents (she was only 6 months old) so this year will be fun.
Last weekend we went to Warsaw and the Great Grandparents got to meet Cosette. This is Great Grandpa Horn, Cosette, Almendra, and Matt.

Ally has a new word. She can say "Jesus". In the picture she is pointing to Jesus. Yesterday I was sitting on the couch with Cosette and Ally was playing and all of a sudden, walked over to the wall and pointed to the picture and said "Jesus". It was so cute.

One of her favorite things is still sink baths.
I thought I'd take the opportunity to see if her hair was long enough for a pony tail. It is, almost.

Cosette had her 1 week check up and is now weighing in at 8lbs 2oz. She is growing fast. It is amazing that at 2 weeks old I already see so many differences between the 2 girls. Cosette is incredibly patient with Ally wanting to constantly touch her.

I thought this was a funny picture of Ally.

Daddy's Girls

I thought this picture turned out cute since all 3 of them are smiling. Cosette is smiling in her sleep.

Happy Cosette!

Sisters
Ally is still not quite sure what to think of Cosette. She loves to check on her and talk to her, but holding her is another story. She wants to hold her, but as soon as Cosette sits in her lap, she pushes her away.
