Super 36!

We helped cris celebrate his 36th birthday on Super Bowl Sunday! We had a really fun day, and got to spend the whole weekend together since i didn't have to work at all. Cris and our friend Saioa celebrating their birthdays at the SuperBowl Party

We were planning to see a movie that night; however, our plans were slightly disrupted. Remember when i said everyone had recovered from the Chuck E Cheese Ball Pit Virus that had caused lots of vomiting in the stickley house, well, i was just kidding. Nova has been coughing up copious amounts of mucous, and then vomiting from coughing so much. So, going out to the movies didn't work out so well when Nova got herself into hysterics from coughing and vomiting. No one has really be sleeping since Nova has been up much of the night coughing.

I don't think we had mentioned yet that we have moved both of the babies out of our room. They are both in the nursery now, which is overall MUCH better (Especially since cris and i get up at 4:30 a.m. for work, which is not really a good wake up time for babies). However, it means many many middle of the night trips to the nursery, as they have been waking each other up crying.

We have had a couple of cold mornings. Probably at least in the 60's :) Nova and Juneau have been practicing with their cold weather gear in case we end up leaving Hawaii this summer.

Saturday we attended our adoption agency's Lunar New Year Celebration. We forgot the camera! but Juneau had a fun time doing some of the activities. Nova had fun too, until a giant balloon she was playing with popped right in her face. Poor, fragile Nova about jumped out of her skin. Seriously, though, she is toughening up pretty well. She has become more of a dare devil, and her fear of loud noises and elevators seems to have subsided. She is crawling so fast these days she skinned the top of her foot from friction.

She is doing really well lately, so i think we can cross the following previously applicable Birthday Party Themes off our list:
Nova: I'm Afraid of Elevators

Nova: I'm Afraid of Loud Noises

Nova: I'm Fragile

Nova: I Hold My Breath Until I Pass Out

Still in the running is:

Nova: I cough so hard I puke
