It's been a great week. Tim and I are actually getting to spend some time together. Wednesday right when I got home I packed up the kids and went to the gym. After the gym I took them to Old Navy. There were lots of sale items, so I was able to get a lot of Christmas presents out of the way. Amy and Angela were nice enough to watch the boys while Jackie and I went back to the mall to shop. On Thanksgiving we first went to my moms to pig out. The boys were very good, they even took a long nap. I always forget to take pictures until the very end and by that time almost everyone is gone and I missed the good pictures of everyone holding Matt and Mike. After my mom's we went over to Tim's mom to visit for a while. The boys were really good over there too. We didn't get home until 8:30. I met up with everyone at Ameristar. I was losing $10 and I was ready to leave. Me, mom, Jane, Ken and Janie decided to pitch in $1 for the exist routine. We started with $5 and cashed out at $305. ($61 a piece) We all went home winners.

Dr.'s Appointments all week.

Michael and Matthew are getting really big. Finally Matthew passed Michael up in weight. The boys had a check up on Tuesday. They are both were they are supposed to be.

Matthew is 14lbs 15oz 24 in long
Michael is 14lbs 11oz 24.5 in long

They both received 4 shots and they screamed so hard and loud. They are both doing really good sleeping through the night. The hard part this week was getting them to sleep. They kept fighting, one night I had to sleep on the couch with Michael.
Today we had an appointment with the helmet doctor. They said that both boys can use a helmet but to try repositioning them first. Our insurance will not cover any part of it so we are going to try and do what we can to correct it without helmets. Most likely in a month they will still need one but we will see.
I have plenty of pictures, but they are just random shots. Here are a few of them.

Friday Tim and I took the boys out trick or treating with Chrissy and their cousins. It was great weather, I think it was the first year I can remember that it wasn't really cold or raining. All the kids were very good. The boys got some candy but Allison really got a lot. We did trade her for some of the chocolate so she could have more things she could eat. (That wasn't the only reason).
