1. Brandon and I decided we need to attend the temple more often so our new goal is once a month. On Saturday night, we got a babysitter and went with another couple from our ward. We went out to eat afterwards. Can I just say how nice it is to dine out without a toddler?
2. Watching The Biggest Loser has inspired me to take getting into shape more seriously. Since New Year's, I've been working out religiously 4 times a week, even getting up early to go to the gym. I've even surprised myself! Who knew? Also, we moved our treadmill into our bedroom a while ago and I've used it more in the last month that I did in the previous three years. Maybe I'll finally lose that baby weight after all (never mind that my baby is 15 months old today!).
I wish I looked like this girl.
3. Since starting to teach preschool, I seem to be constantly sick with a cold. It's odd to me because I wash my hands so much they are usually raw. Anyway, the last few days I've been totally stuffed up and miserable. How come I never appreciate breathing through my nose until I can't?
4. Other than the germs, I really love my job. It's so rewarding. I have four year olds who are already reading, which is so exciting. (It's more of a reflection of the curriculum than anything I've done, but still.)

5. I made chicken pot pie from scratch the other day and boy, was it good. Total comfort food. If you want the recipe I used, click
