Amy got sass

Lately, Amy has been getting a little sassy sometimes. I should probably write down more of the things she says, but I forget them. This one was today, so I figured I would post it here before I do forget it.

Amy was laying in her bed when I told her it was bath time

Amy: It's not bath time, it's bed time
Me: No, it's bath time
Amy: No, it's bed time
Me: (lays down) Okay, then I'm gonna go night night here with you
Amy: No, you go night night in your room
Me: No, I'm gonna go night night here
Amy: (pointing to the letters on her wall) A-M-Y, that's not your name

I then started laughing and couldn't finish the conversation

Big kids

Both Amy and Cole went to the doctor recently and my how they have grown. Amy is 43 inches tall and weighs 44 pounds, which puts her in the 95th percentile. Cole is 19 pounds, 6 1/2 ounces and 27 1/4 inches tall, which puts him in the 98th percentile for weight and 99th percentile for height. I don't how these kids get so big, but they sure do.
We tried putting Cole in his Bumbo chair to see if he was old enough to use it yet (he turned 4 months old 5 days ago), and he wouldn't fit in it. Already too big.
Cole is also having a strange sleep regression. He was doing really well (6-8 hour stretches), and then suddenly he started doing only 2-3 hours. The doctor said it may be a growth spurt, but it's been going on for over a week now, so I don't know about that. I just hope it gets better!

Amy is doing really well in school. We've already noticed even more improvement in her speech since she started up again. I think being around all of the other kids really makes her want to try harder. She says the funniest things and always keeps us entertained.
She is also really excited for Halloween. She is gonna be Jessie from Toy Story this year, so I will try to post up some pictures once that is over.

Amy's Birthday

Sunday was Amy's birthday and we had a very small party for her. We wanted to do something special though, and she really loves balloons, so we blew up over 350 of them and filled her trampoline and a lot of the basement floor. She had a blast.
