Running in Circles

:: hazel ::

1. is eating so much these days- every hour she is asking for a snack. We are out of food two days before I can grocery shop again.

2. is loving eating her lunch sandwiches in cookie cutter shapes. I put some fruit on a kabob stick for a snack and she thought I was the greatest.

3. has started wanting to take showers instead of baths.

4. is learning the days of the week- but Tuesday is always "Taco Tuesday"

5. has woken up so early since daylight savings- I hope she adjusts sooner than later.

:: henry ::

1. is teething again.

2. is standing alone for a few seconds at a time all by himself.

3. he bites my shoulders daily. and pinches me so hard. 

4. Up until this point I'd say 80% of nap times/bedtimes I nurse Henry to sleep, but for the last two weeks I've put him in his crib mostly awake and he plays for a minute and then has fallen asleep on his own.

5. Henry just loves personal attention from anyone. If I sing him a song, or do peekaboo he gives the best giggles and smiles. 

6. he is starting to get hard at church. He usually is good during sacrament and then naps during Sunday school, but Relief Society is hard. There's too many people to let him crawl around, but sitting on my lap for an hour is out of the picture.

:: breann ::

1. really loving this whole "being a mom" thing right now. 

2. wishing i could have $30 and an hour to myself for a manicure and pedicure.

3. I've been reading "Eat & Run" about a vegan marathoner- neither one of those thing is too appealing to me (a little too extreme) but it has really gotten me thinking about what foods we really should limit even more. I'm sure Brice will be thrilled :)

4. getting nervous to race in a few weeks. I've set a time goal but really we will just see how it goes.

5. I need some new clothes- I feel like I'm wearing the same few outfits over and over.

6. I've been loving this "ponderize" addition to our scripture study. Its amazing how quickly I can memorize a verse when I look at it every time I walk into the kitchen.

:: brice ::

1. Is working hard and still really likes his job.

2.  Has saved the day at church several times in the last few weeks when it comes to technology issues.

3. played basketball last week and flag football this week. 

4. will tell you he's not a runner, but he's still getting up at 6:20 four times a week, follows a training plan, prepares his Gatorade and water bottles the night before, and I constantly catch him looking at running gear online,

5. Told me he needs a project so I'm trying to figure out a few things he can maybe make. I just want to be out of an apartment before we have more furniture- I'm starting to feel claustrophobic.

6. needs a haircut but every time I bring it up he says he's not "mentally prepared"- whatever that means ;)
