First trip to the park

Here is Lily's first park adventure! She seemed to enjoy it!

Journal Thoughts for Today

Haven't written in your journal for a while? Try this...

For February 20, 2009

Outside my window...is the Arizona sunshine. It is a bit cold (for here) and a bit windy. The high today is in the 70's I think.

I am thinking about....moving to Utah and hoping that we can find a job when Rob is done.....about how to get Lily to sleep better (she is still waking up a million times in the night--she is not a good sleeper!)......how tired I am and wish I could sleep better when I do get the chance to sleep.

I am thankful for...my husband and his dedication to school.....my husband and my opportunity to stay home full-time with my kiddo....the gospel and how much peace it brings.

From the kitchen...Lily's booster seat/high chair is on the counter from my attempt to feed her this morning....no sweets since I am trying to lose weight!

I am wearing...my favorite jeans from Marshalls that I wear everyday and a black shirt. I am thinking I need to go put on socks though because my toes are numb.

I am going...to try and get a nap today and then go run some grocery errands and get all the good deals at all the different stores.

I am hoping...that I can be content with being here for another six months. I have my husband and baby but this week I am just feeling extra lonely and am looking forward to being closer to family and to make new friends......that Lily can start to sleep better!

I am hearing...the sweet sound of Lily sleeping and the hum of this computer.

Around the house...Pretty clean...but could use a few things picked up.

One of my favorite things...Bajio---I really have been craving that today......the internet!

A few plans for the rest of the week...Finish my lesson for Sunday on Homemaking....try to clean up our room since I am trying to reorganize our stuff....catch up on some sleep.

Valentine's Day & Cute Lily

So, for Valentine's Day we went out to Chili's for lunch with the Lil-ster. If you are going to go out to eat on Valentine's, I am pretty sure lunch is better! It was very fun.




Here is Lily all tuckered out from going to the mall and going out to eat!

I made dinner for Valentine's Day. I made garlic cheese rolls, and chicken Parmesan with heart shaped noodles.

I even made heart-shaped ice cubes!
It was a very good Valentine's Day--low key but good.


Here is Lily's adventure with a new toy she got for Christmas.

You can all surmise what happened here!

To answer some questions about my last post---we are moving at the end of August...six months away. This week, it seems like that can't come soon enough! I just need to learn to not care so much about some things and be happy with who I am...regardless of other things beyond my control.

Lily is very mobile! She can get anywhere she sets her mind to! She is sort of crawling...but can definitely get where she wants to go.

Rob is done with this quarter on Monday and then has a little time off. Then, he has his rotation starting March 9. I am going home to Idaho Falls on March 13 for 2 weeks to spend some time with my family.

Okay, that is all. I hope everybody had a great week!

Reasons I am Looking Forward to Moving to Utah

1. Seasons
2. Summers that don't have 120 degree weather
3. Less people who smoke (I am sick of smelling smoke everywhere I go!)
4. Closer to my family
5. Lily to be closer to some cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents
6. Make some new friends
7. Stop feeling left out here
   
8. Closer to a temple
9. For Rob to be closer to having a real job
10. Closer to the mountains

What are you looking forward to?
