Water Baby

Sponge bath = lots of yelling and red faced baby.
Watermelon tub bath in the sink = she digs it.
Apparently the girl just likes to be dunked.
This gets a little interesting because though you can't see him in the picture, big brother is a very eager participant in bathing the baby. We have so far narrowly averted all of us getting completely soaked. 






But her favorite part is being all wrapped up tight in the towel. Here she is trying to pull it up over herself.

Two of a Kind

 We have been telling everyone that Bryce and Jocelyn are as alike as two peas in a pod. Here's the proof for those of you who can't remember what Bryceman looked like as a wee one.

And finally, the hospital shots. It's cheating if you use the writing on the shirt to figure out which is which.

Joyful Noise

Jocelyn's name means "joyous" in latin, and while we think it is quite fitting, her mild mannered appearance disguises a noisemaker of epic proportions. Here she is looking all sweet and demure in her little pink sheep outfit, but mommy and daddy know better. When the lights go off, and we make a half-hearted attempt at actually going to sleep, the noisy beast surfaces. We have divided these noises into 4 categories, so here they are for those of you who don't get to experience the symphony of sound that is our baby girl. In order of ascending intensity: 1. Horse noises: grunting, huffing and puffing resembling a large horse standing next to the bed, 2. Loch Ness Monster: an assortment of squawks, and noise like Nessie clearing her throat underwater, 3. Car screeching around a corner: pretty self explanatory, but definitely one you'd have to hear to believe, and finally 4. Atomic: generally reserved for baths and night time diaper changes, sometimes I am sure my ears are still ringing 20 minutes later.
