Crackbook has me by the throat

I may have to set a timer for myself when I'm on FB. I have decided Crackbook is a more appropriate name. I check up on people I haven't talked to in years and I don't actually have to talk to anyone...I just snoop around their pictures and beat their scores on the games they play. Its pretty bad. Hopefully the novelty will wear off soon.
So here are a few shots taken recently:
Poor Miss Fabulous got sick over Fall Break. This is the first time she's been sick and throwing up. Thankfully it was only a 24 hour bug and she slept pretty much the whole time. I love that she still sleeps with her bum in the air...reminds me of the tiny girl I had years ago.

Little Star loves her baths! I sure missed having a tiny girl to bundle up in a towel! Miss Fabulous is too big for that now so Star gets all the snuggling!

This picture and the next were taken by Miss Fabulous. She seems the most able to get Star smiling and talking. I sure hope the girls are close as they get older!

I like this picture because not only is she smiling (not a big smile, but a smile nonetheless) but it looks like a self portrait! A few stats on Star at 2 months: 13 lbs. (above the 95th percentile), 25.5" long (75th-90th percentile), and her head is 15.3" around (25th-50th percentile). She is hungry pretty much all the time she's awake, but sometimes we can get her to smile and coo. She LOVES her tummy and has started scooting herself around the room. No more rolling...guess it was a one time fluke. She sure can scoot herself quickly...no more laying on the couch for her!

I cannot believe your baby has so much hair! Lucky!
Did you get your box yet? I don't know how long it takes things to get to Hawaii.

The List

This is an incomplete list of the things I'm trying to do before December 15. I know I'm missing a few things but you get the idea. I wish I had more time, but at the same time, I know I would just waste it and end up doing everything at the last minute anyway. So here's at least a partial list of things I need to do or make: 1. matching pajama pants for my girls and their cousins. 2. 4 more bags and 2 more purses. 3. smallish blankets and pillows for my girls' baby dolls and/or stuffed animals. 4. turn 2 sweaters into Christmas dresses for my girls 5. Christmas shop for John 6. gifts/goodies for neighbors and friends 7. decorate for Christmas 8. 2 tutus 9. Christmas cards? or wait until after the baby is born and send an update with an announcement? 10. finish getting the girls' room in order and looking cute 11. organize the basement and purge the STUFF #10 doesn't necessarily have to be done before the 15 th but I'd like to just get it DONE already. ...

I've been told I need to update the blog so here are several pictures of little Star. She is now just over 11 lbs. and just shy of 23" long. She is just a bit big. Miss Fabulous was nearly 4 months old before she got as big as our Star! She is fun and really cuddly. She really loves to eat (thus the big size!) and sleep but seems to be wanting to be on the move. John has dubbed her "Scooter" because she is never where we put her. She rolled over from her back to her tummy the other day! Still not great at night...sometime she just wants to be awake, but last night she slept 7 hours straight and I'm hoping its the beginning of a trend! Miss Fabulous just LOVES her little sister and is always trying to help. MF is doing a little better in school with a lot of help from her teacher and some from us at home. We are starting her in a program at school where they help children deal with transition, which seems to be the biggest part of her problem. The progr...
