Such wonderful news.
10-month-old conjoined twins Maria Paz and Maria Jose are recovering in an intensive care unit after doctors successful separated them during an operation.
Parents Jessica Navarrete and Roberto Parades were anxiously waiting for the results at Luis Calvo Mackenna Hospital in Santiago, Cile, while doctors separated the twins at the thorax, abdomen, and pelvis.
This was their seventh operation!
Their doctor described it as the moment "the girls finished the process of being born," adding:
"Before, they had two souls and one body.
"We're very happy because we think they've had the best evolution we could have hoped for. The next 48 hours will be the most critical in terms of the … risk they face of dying."
We know the girls can pull through. At less than a year old, they're already such strong fighters. Our prayers are with them and their parents.

Holidays = Traveling!
Packing for yourself is a stressful, but packing for the you AND a little a huge headache!
JoggerMom.com's Kelly is here to Perezitos.com reader's question about which toting their tots!
One inquisitive perezicous mommy needs a little help finding the perfect plane-friendly stroller. She asks:
"I am traveling to see my family out West soon and I do not want to bring my big clunky stroller on the plane what stroller should I use?
Jogger mom says:
Traveling with a little one is stressful enough without having to worry about what stroller you should bring. Most parents want the comforts of their full service stroller in a light weight frame. I am not saying go with an umbrella stroller. If you go with an umbrella stroller both your back and your wallet will be hurting. Your wallet will be because as soon as you land you will be looking to purchase another stroller! Here is the answer….purchase the lightweight, full function Baby Jogger City Mini.
Weighing in at a slim 16.8 lbs the City Mini will make it easy for you to catch the subway while holding onto baby and stroller. The fold is one quick step and the recline is near flat making it perfect for baby to get a quick nap in. I hope that you have a successful tripwith your baby!
And if you're ready to make a purchase visit her site where all of these fine strollers are sold at: JoggerMom.com!

Wonderful news.
Two-year-old conjoined twin girls Angelica and Angelina Sabuco were successfully separated at the Lucile Packard Children's Hospital at Stanford.
The two girls shared a liver, diaphragm, and sternum, but thankfully, had two separate hearts, which made the surgery easier for doctors.
Dr. Gary Hartman said:
"We are very pleased. It could not have gone better."
Their chests and abdominal walls had to be reconstructed, which went smoother than expected.
The girls are said to be doing well and even slept in two separate beds, the first time in their lives, the night after the surgery.
Such wonderful news. We are so happy that the surgery was a success and the girls are doing so well. They seem to have a wonderful spirit.
Watch above to see their life at home before the surgery.

This is such wonderful news.
Conjoined twins Joshua and Jacob Spates, who were attached at the base of their spines, have been separated after a successful operation that took over 13 hours to complete.
The boys, who had never been able to see each other, finally got a chance to say hi to each other face-to-face.
Wow. Tears swelling up…
The twins aren't out of the woods yet, but with a lot of hope and prayer, they will soon be out of the hospital and will begin their lives as separate twins.
To see more about Jacob and Joshua and their surgery, check out the video above.

Really? These are the reasons she ditched Hef? Not that she might have been cheating?
Doesn't make a ton of sense to us, but here we go…
Crystal Harris was tired of living on an allowance of a "few hundred dollars" a week, and didn't think her music career would succeed in a marriage:
Sources involved in planning the massive wedding say Crystal felt like she, "couldn't be married to Hef and have a successful music career."
Yep, those are the reported reasons.
Oh wait! Maybe she means! … no… hmm! We're stumped on this one!
Let us know the real reasons, Crystal!
