I don't know about anyone else

but I'm already stressing about the Christmas season. I made a list of everything I need to get done and would like to get done and I don't feel like doing any of it right now. I'm fighting a headache and I'd really like to just put a movie on and go to sleep. The only problem with that is that John's outside working hard and Miss Fabulous is outside "helping" him and Star, although she needs a nap, is not looking like she is off to La La Land any time soon. Besides, I'm supposed to be putting on FHE (Family Home Evening) tonight and just the thought of that and making dinner just makes me even more tired. Why is it that on the days I have nothing (except housework and projects) to do, something always comes up and I never get ANYTHING done? I doubt there are many people who live nearby that actually read this, but I've decided that in spite of the busy-ness of the season, I'm going to go do something fun...on the 15th (that's a Tuesday). Morning or evening, I don't care...or if it works out better for everyone, we can do it on the night of Friday the 18th. I will plan something and whoever would like to join me, please do. Spread the word and let me know. I will make it my celebration of being done with all projects. So my goal is to be done with all projects and presents in two weeks. Make it your goal too and come celebrate with me.

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...

In case you're like my mom, who can "never see anything in these pictures", it is baby #2 due at the beginning of August. Hopefully we get to keep this one...all signs say yes. Please keep us in your prayers!
