Cousins

For Christmas Grandma made matching dresses for the girls. Here are Alison (Joe's sister's daughter) and Cora having a discussion how best to consume the ribbon. They were very cute together. They are only a month and a half apart in age. Alison is actually lighter in weight and moving around everywhere. Cora, the younger, is heavier and still, thank goodness, not crawling. That doesn't mean she stays in one place. Frequently, I lay her down and come back to find that Catherine has carried her off somewhere. I guess Cora doesn't feel the need to crawl.
Grandma made Catherine a dress too.
This was the best picture I could get of the three of them together. Most of the others look like Catherine is trying to hold two greased pigs.
Notice the ribbon in Cora's hair!
