In spite of a rainy muddy day, we all had a blast at the University of Hawaii football game! Both girls are big fans of tailgating (or at least they are fans of the constant doting and attention from our friends!). Juneau loved the football game. Well, she loved the first quarter before she fell asleep. Nova, on the other hand, isn't really a big fan of sporting events quite yet. She kept trying to fall asleep, and then as soon as the fans started cheering she would totally jump out of her skin and get terrified. This happened at least 30 times before we finally descided her little nerves had had enough and we left in the last quarter. poor little sweet nova. she wants to be tough, but she is just a sweetie at heart. We always joke that while Juneau's 1st birthday theme was "Juneau Rocks", Nova's first birthday theme will be "Nova: I'm afraid of loud noises".
seriously, everyone is really going to die when i post their halloween photos. i broke out in uncontrollable fits of laughter yesterday at nova, and she was only partially costumed.
and here are cute pictures of our cute girls.

Aunt Betsy's favorite thing to do when she watches the girls is dress them up in pretty dresses and take their pictures. 
I finally got a picture of our room arrangement. We decided this weekend to move Juneau to her own room because she has been waking up when we wake up at the ridiculous hour of four-thirty a.m. That wasn't really working out, so we moved her over to the nursery. I had to take a picture of what our room has looked like for these last few crazy months. 
The first night of our new sleeping arrangement was somewhat of a catastrophe when cris checked on Juneau (who is being treated for swimmer's ear) and she was burning hot. He took her temperature and it was 104! he repeated it at least 10 times, and it kept reading around 103.7 and other scary numbers. We gave her some tylenol (which brought her temp down to 101) and kept her in our bed for the night. She is now on topical ear antibiotics, as well as amoxil for a presumed external as well as middle ear infection. poor baby! She is already acting so much better, and is nearly back to her usual self. Today she really started trying to stand on her own, and is even trying to take a few very wobbly steps. Nova on the other hand is looking like she wants to crawl at any second. we may soon have 2 mobile babies on the loose. sounds like major trouble is headed our way soon!

they are so cute! i can't wait to give them big kisses in december!!! where did you get the bath seats? ava has now decided she hates baths and i'm trying anything and everything i can to get the screaming to stop!
One of our older girls was like that with noise. Even little things like a can of soda being opened? TO this day at age 6 she does not like fireworks, plugs her ears at amusement parks or any other "loud" place (movies is a big one too), and thankfully doesn't cry any more when people clap for her or sing "happy birthday"
She really isn't as odd as that all makes her sound and the clapping/singing thing she was done with before age four. She is my all around sensative (and snuggly) one though :)
Two on the move - I know from experience you will have your hands full but it will be so much fun!
