A Little About Nothing

Painting Together

CHEESE!! Silly Smile

Ready for Church

Playing Together

Well it is the end of January and I can say that there hasn't been much going on this month worth blogging about. I am tired of the cold, yucky winter with hardly any snow and so I am anxiously waiting for Spring to get here. I think the kids and I are especially tired of being inside all day every day! I have still been faithful at going to the gym each morning. Although I am not really seeing the results I was hoping for. I have got the working out part down and I feel good about that, but I guess I just can't get the diet thing together. I have been trying really hard to eat smaller portions, but it isn't working and I just am getting frustrated with the whole weight thing. At least I feel a little healthier!

Church has been SOOOOOO Chaotic the last month, so much so that I really have to force myself to go each week. We have about 5 new sunbeams that are so young and out of control!! 2 little girls that are in that class are like perfect little angels and sit and listen and try and sing and if all the kids were like that Primary would be so great!! But it isn't, we have a couple of kids that just want to run around and be noisy and get into things, so we are all like referees trying to get them and all the other kids under control. It makes is very hard to feel the spirit and to teach a sharing time. I hope it gets better soon, I don't know if I can handle it much longer!

Paige is beginning to talk a lot more. Her most favorite word to say it "No" and she says it with this nasally voice like "Nnnnooooo" and she says it to almost anyone that talks to her with this furrowed brow too. She has developed an attitude and I think I am in trouble!! Other words that she says are:
Mommy
Daddy
Bapa = Grandpa
Mama = Grandma
ink = Drink
dank u = Thank You
peees = Please
Kaka = Parker
I yu you = I love you
Bye Bye
Hi
Those are pretty much the majority of what she is saying. Everyday she surprises me and does something or says something and I think "Where did you learn that?" She is purely girl and I love it!!!

Coleton HATES sunbeams. He tells me he hates sister green (his teacher) I feel bad sending him becasue he just runs around and gets into stuff. He wants to go to nursery like Gage.
I love deciphering little baby language it hard but so fun when you finaly get what they are saying. gage says alot of the same things as paige. She looks a lot like you by the way!

Church....Rich works every other weekend, so that means I'm left alone to take the kids by myself. I consider it a success if I can make it though sac. meeting without crying. I'm looking for a church buddy because after the baby comes there is no way I can do it by myself...at least not at first. We have 5 nursery's and a gazillon sunbeams, Richards class was the worse last year, but they made it. If it doesn't get better soon maybe the parents should come sit with them...at least part of the time...and suggest they "practice" church at home...just an idea. Don't give up on them, they might surprise you.

Hey Erika, I know the feeling with the whole exercise and not losing anything, I finally got so frustrated that I went to see DR Willey at the Idaho Physicians clinic he is the one one who created the walk in weight loss program. I just started this week but have heard tons of good things about it. Just an idea, he charges just like a normal DR visit so you just have to pay a normal copay. If you want to know any more about it just let me know.
