Hello everyone! Sparrow here. Figured it was time to update everyone on what's going on in Waterloo.
So, Robin (my little sis) had a really bad flu for a few days, so Josephina came to stay with us to help her feel better (Josephina knows cures and stuff like that so she was alot of help). While she was here Brooklyn went to stay with Claudia (Claudia had room for a visitor). Now that Robin is feeling better Jospephina has gone home and Brooklyn is back here. Josephina is taking a very long nap as I type (She didn't get much sleep while she was taking care of Robin)
Felicity is visiting Mia.
Ruthie and Solana are not back from their out-of-town visits. Hopefully soon. I know Heather is getting bored living by herself and that Claudia wants Sugar to go home.
We now have checkbooks here in Waterloo. Which I am very happy about as I will actually be able to make money when customers come to The Sparrow's Nest. They are not very fancy but they'll do for a start :)
And lastly, on the social media side of things, You may (if you fallow us on twitter that is) noticed that we've been posting daily pictures of random things going on it Waterloo. If you don't fallow us on Twitter check it out our user name is WaterStTweets. We use the hashtag #Dailydollphotos when we post each picture. Feel free to join us in doing so and we can all share the daily lives of our doll towns!
Well, I'm gonna sign off here.

more room updates
Hi everyone! Heather McConell here.
Sorry for the lack of updates. We've been busy here. Last week Brooklyn and the Matthew's sisters, The Montoya's and Larsons, and Claudia moved into apartments (when Ruthie returns from Daisy Hallow she'll be living with Claudia. And today I moved into an apartment of my own (Solana will live with me when she gets back from visiting her sister in Star Valley.
Right now Sugar is staying with Claudia, Claudia is much better with animals then I am and Sugar is a bit hard to handel at times.
If you want to see what the newly set up apartments look like (minus mine) I suggest checking out this YouTube video Clara made

New Roomate Rules Version 1
I, Jessica Akiko McConnell, do hereby agree to abide by the rules set forth in....something legallie sounding, in agreement with Mia Vanessa StClair. The purpose of which.....more legal nonsense....to allow Jessica and Mia to peacefully live together (or something like that, Do I REALLY have to type up this mumbo jumbo Mia?)
1) Jessica will only be given permission to use Mia's MP3 player without Mia's permission. This means that Jessica is not allowed to rip said MP3 player off of Mia's ears. No matter how badly she wants to listen to "Sexy and I Know it"
2) Another note about the MP3 Player: Jessica is asked to remember that when she has the headphones on and is singing, that she is singing louder then she can hear. She is asked to keep this in mind when singing. Particularly when Mia is attempting to nap
3) Jessica is reminded that even though her hammock bed makes it difficult for Jessica to jump on her bed, that Mia's bed is not a suitable replacement when she desires to jump on a bed.
4) Jessica is asked to PLEASE refrain from taking pictures of Mia when Mia is sleeping. Particularly considering that Jessica has yet to figure out how to turn the flash on her butterfly camera off.
Also, I, Mia Vanessa StClair do herby agree to abide by the rules set forth in these rules, in agreement with Jessica Akiko McConnell. The purpose of which is to set forth rules that allow Mia and Jessica to peacefully live together.
1) Mia is, under no circumstances, allowed to touch Jessica's monkey and orangatang collection without Jessica's express permission.
2) Mia is asked to remember that Jessica has a severe distaste for classical music, too sleepy, and is asked that when she must listen to classical music for iceskating purposes, to please use her headphones.
3) Mia is asked to understand that yes, Jessica does have more stuffed animals and other figurines then her, but that does not entitle Mia to call Jessica spoiled. Perhaps Mia can work on her cutesy face and ask Jenn for more toys.
4) Persuent to rule 1, Mia is asked to refrain from stealing Toshi off of Jessica's bed and hiding him. No matter how funny Mia thinks it is to watch Jess panic.
(Yes, Jess, you did have to type up your part, I had to mine)
These rules are now put in place by Jenn (who, Jenn would like to remind Mia and Jessica, both legally and physically owns both of their behinds!) and are to be abided by by both Jessica Akiko McConnell and Mia Vanessa StClair
1)Mia and Jessica are asked to immediately refrain from braging about their new room to their sisters who, due to the space available in Jenn's current room) do not yet have rooms. They are FORBIDDEN from saying "It's because Jenn loves us more".
2)Mia and Jessica are asked to learn that handle their own differences and problems rising from misscommunication. If Jenn is asked to moderate many more debates between Mia and Jessica, Jenn will be forced to reconsider their living arrangments. This could possibly include giving their living space to Ruthie and Claudia.
3) All attempted games of "roomate wars" pitting Mia and Jess against Molly and Julie, are hearby forbidden. We do not need a replay of the zipline incident. No matter how much fun Jessica had on the zipline.
(Thank you for typing these up girls. I hope this solves any future problems arising from your new living arrangment and prevents Jenn from having to invoke the punishment in rule two. Jenn is very proud of how well Jessica's hammock bed actually works and would hate to have to take it down).

RoomS update
Mia here, And YES, We said roomS, With an "s", as in plural!
I just got back from an awsome few-week visit in Star Valley (I stayed with Misha, Gabby and Shirley, Thanks for the wonderful hospitality girlies!) and some of my sisters (Molly, Julie, Felicity, and Clara came to visit for the weekend. While we were there Jenn got some doll boxes from Auntie Missy to make bunkbeds for her room so Julie could move in with her. And while Jenn was there she got the idea to empy out the top shelf in her "nook" area and make it into.....drumroll......MINE AND JESS'S ROOM!
Jess has a cool Hamock bed, I right now, have a cot, though that will change when Emily comes to town because Jenn will turn her box into my doll bed (before we get asked, no we do not know when Emily is coming, probibly whenever the next time Jenn, Auntie Missy, and Great Auntie Linda go to Natick provided Jenn has the money). The room already had cool shelves built in so Jess and I havw plenty of storange room. Jess has a small AG box to hold her cloaths (She doesn't have a whole lot of cloaths that are just hers), and I'll be getting a burea (or something to act like it) soonish (ideas as to beareaus are welcome)
well I'm rambeling. Sometime after christmas though we'll post videos showing off the doll rooms!

SWEEEETTTTTTTT
Molly here,
I HAVE A ROOM!
I mean, it's just on top of one of Jenn's dressers (She has too many cloaths, even after getting rid of a TON after she lost weight), I don't have a real bed yet, just my quilt on the floor. But I have a closet. and a table and I can start putting posters up when I find stuff I want to put up.
I'll post pics sometime, probably after the bed is made (Once Jenn can either get her hands on a doll-box or finds a cheap bed or makes one out of something)
In other news. Jenn finished the sweater she's been knitting for Solana (though Clara is wearing it right now because it's part of her inn-keeper costume. I'm playing Joseph) look for the "Show Off" on that sometime late this month of early next (Once Solana gets it back).
Well I gotta go. Mainly posting just to brag about my new room!

I would just like to say.....
....To Auntie Missy's Kaya:
I would like to apologise for not warning you before we watched Doctor Who. I didn't know you would get so afraid watching "The Almost People" and "The Rebel Flesh". (For those of you who don't know: Those episodes feature "Gangers", or people made to look like other people). I did not know you would find the "Gangers" going evil so scary (I've always loved the way Doctor Who can scare me). Please accept my aplogise :(
ANNNDDDD
.......To Our Kaya (Can someone like Sparrow or Solana read this to her, as she is not currently talking to me)
I would like to apologise for scaring Auntie Missy's Kaya with that episode. Particuarly because, in her fear, she thought you were her "Ganger" and were going to hurt her. Should she come out from under Jenn's bed, I will try to explain that you are not a "Ganger" and would not want to hurt her. Please accept my aplogise :(
So yeah, I think I'm going to take Creevey for a walk and hope that I can think of a way to solve this.

Unhappy Jess warning!
UGHHHHHH!
Not only did Jenn make me pose with Sugar for the craft she posted Monday: BUT!!!! about two hours after she finished the blog entree THE POWER WENT OUT AND DIDN'T COME ON FOR OVER TWO DAYS! It went out about 2pm on monday and didn't come back on until about 6pm on Monday. Yes Grandpa Bruce has a generator so the house was warm and the people had food but NOTHING in Jenn's room had power. NOT COOL! I personally was very happy when it came back. It was like a Halloween miracle ;)
In other news: The Matthews (Sparrow and Robin's parents) have taken in a foster kid. Her name is Brooklyn Malone. She's shy, but nice. She likes to cook so she's a perfect fit with Sparrow and Robin. She helps in the kitchen at The Sparrow's Nest.
And finally: look for the Star Valley Block Party album sometime tommorow or Monday.
Byesssie bye!
*Jess*
On a more serious note:
We know that there were people who were not only more inconvenienced then us by Hurricane Sandy but who actually may have been hurt, or worse. Our thoughts and possitive energy go out to those people. Keep strong :)
