Ob-la-di, Ob-la-da

What a week! I am so glad today is the first day of a new week. Darren had many work meetings this week as well as exams, and it felt like all week it was just me and Lila. I was called to the Enrichment Board in R.S. two weeks ago and also had one meeting of my own this week, which Lila joined me for since Darren wasn't available for babysitting. Also, I missed all of my yoga classes this week  because I didn't have a babysitter. Yesterday Darren had an all day manager meeting from 9-6, and afterward his regional manager took him out to dinner (and I had actually made him dinner yesterday--now he gets to have it today!). After he finally got home, he met at our house with my cousin Meghan's husband and they worked out the details of their iPhone app they're creating for a contest at school. Meghan came over too, which was nice, although I'm afraid I bored her to death because I was so dead tired! That is how my week left me feeling, dead tired. And maybe I shouldn't be too excited for a new week just yet...I was asked to speak to the Young Women at activity night this week, I have two midterms next week, I have to speak at enrichment in two and a half weeks, and I'm singing in sacrament in three weeks. Well, as the Beatles sing it, "Ob-la-di, ob-la-da, life goes on"!

You most definitely did NOT bore me :) It was so fun to just talk and hang out for awhile! Sometimes the computer stuff goes a bit over my head, so it was nice to talk about other things :) I hope you have a good week! PS, I have a hit and miss schedule, but if you're ever in need of a babysitter, feel free to call me. I'm super close to campus. Oh, and I love the new header on your blog.

All the emotions

By
Moving of course brings up all sorts of thoughts and feelings. As I declutter and go through all of our stuff I get distracted with the memories that items bring up. I've had moments of sadness and feeling like time flies far too quickly. But of all the feelings, the most overwhelming one has been joyful gratitude. All my reflections on these years here in Austin, and most especially this last year have made me realize how far I've come in my life. This year I have achieved just about all I could ever hope for in life. I've come to love life with all it's ups and downs. I've learned how to roll with the punches and keep my chin up when things get tough. I've truly learned to put myself at the top of the priority list. I have more of myself to give than ever before. I've learned how to give and receive friendship. I've come to love and accept myself as I am. I know I am stronger than ever (and not just my muscles, but truly I think I am physically at my...

Well, I've found out that a middle aged man has been coming on my blog and looking at pictures of my children.  I am obviously very uncomfortable with this, so it's time to go private. I'm happy to let any of you continue reading, as long as I know you and know you're not creepy! Just post your e-mail address and I'll add it to the list :o)

Lila is 2!!

By
Where did the time go? My baby is two and not really a baby at all. We love her to pieces and can't imagine life without her. She continues to learn things quickly and is already starting to read. Just kidding!! Just wanted to see if you were reading my post. Lila loves to learn, but she's not a genius (sorry sweetie--your genes aren't that good!). Lately she's been learning the sounds the letters make (she learned the alphabet at 16 mos.) and by sight she recognizes the words "cat", "dog", "Mom", "Dad", and "Lila." She knows all the colors (although her colorblindness sometimes gets her mixed up on red and green...those darn genes again!), shapes, and numbers 1-15. She enjoys singing, playing the "I Spy" game, running, climbing, going to nursery on Sunday, bike rides, looking at books, and going to the library. Oh yeah, and did I mention that she likes chocolate just as much as I do?? Maybe I shouldn't ha...
