Time is flying so fast. Tanaya is 8 weeks old now and getting so big (or at least to me). We just got her weighed Monday and she is 10 lbs 13 oz., 22 1/4 inches long and her head is 40.2 cm. We are now starting to outgrown the odd clothing item and have pulled out all the 3 month outfits (although most of them are still quite big on her). She is colic according to the doctor but since finding that out I have switched back to decaf coffee (except the first pot let's be real people!) and we pretty much burp her 24/7 and it seems to help alot (colic is a build up of gas they can't expel). I still have to hold her pretty much all the time or she cries but the non stop screaming some have to deal with rarely happens, Thank goodness! Otherwise a really smiley baby,
Jasmine is getting excited about grad. Had fun trying on gowns on the weekend and has been ogling them on the websites ever since. We are putting off buying one just yet because a: it's bloody Christmas people! & b: she is doing awesome on her diet and has dropped 30 lbs already! We have great hopes that she will drop at least another 30 lbs before graduation so we need to wait on the dress (they tell us they can't be altered down whole sizes).
Damian is still working and loves the money, although lately has been spending most of his checks so his savings is at a standstill, lol. Got his first report card and did OK, but he still got the "You can do better, you're smarter than this
" lecture LOL! He could though, there were still a few uncompleted assignments that affected his grade, little bugger. So he has until next report to complete ALL assignments to the relative best of his abilities or he may not be allowed to keep his job. He definitely wont be allowed to work as many hours.
Sean & I aren't as exciting. When you get old there is just less of that, LMAO! Sean is on holidays this week and is enjoying hunting when weather permits. I am trying to work on some scrapbooking recipes for a swap I joined (tough at time s with only one arm, lol). I applied & got on the PIT DT, so I am super pumped about that! Stacey tells me I will get my first kit on Friday but she is a wee bit slow at the nailing so I may have to kick her ass, ROFL! I am wanting to play man!! BTW, the pic included her is one Sean took. He claims that is "quality" time with us, watching us sleep when we are supposed to be awake visiting, lol! Poor guy. OK, that's all my excitement that I can share for now.

She is such a cutie pie! Good to hear Damian is doing not bad. Hope it works out with cutting his hours back at work. So proud of Jasmine for doing so well on her diet! You go girl!! Yes, your friend is a tad slow with the whole post office thing but I will get there today for sure!
Hey Michelle....love the new photos you posted. Your daughter is so darn cute and she sure is growing fast. Congrats to Jasmine on her weight loss. You will have to let me know her secret. Great that Damian is working and happy to hear Sean got his deer (poor Bambi...whaaa).
In answer to your comment on my blog, I seriously did socialize. I have been in a funk with scrapbooking and the last layout I did was mid July. Yikes!! I am having a hard time getting my Christmas cards ready.
Take care and hope the sweet little one gets over her colic.
Hugs
