For those wondering, we still haven't made a for sure decision on where we are headed to next, but we hope to do that soon.
And we should be putting our house up for sale like, tonight. Ok maybe not, maybe this weekend. We are beyond what you could call procrastinators, but hey, there was a possibility we would be staying here so we didn't want to sell our house and, "Oops! Sorry, we're gonna need our house back".
So what have we been up to lately? Besides all the packing, cleaning, organizing, and anything else it takes to get your house ready to sell.
Well, for awhile it got really warm like 80 degrees for a few days and then on Tuesday it went from 80 to 30 degrees over night.
Here we are one day enjoying the sun:
As for another random fact in our lives, I've gained five pounds. I hate to say that, but maybe it will motivate me to work out and I know a lot of you have good tips and tricks on how to get fit, lose some weight, and be healthy!
Since having Jacob I had been at a constant weight up {which I was really happy with, I went 11 pounds under my pre-pregnancy weight, don't ask me how, because I really don't know how it happened} until about 3 or so weeks ago, I gained like 5 lbs. I don't know what happened! Ok, maybe I do, it may have something to do with the nightly ritual of a serving of Ben & Jerry's ice cream. But, I've been *trying* to stop that and go running. I hate not having a gym pass. What do you do with out the gym? At-home work out videos just don't do it for me. And I do enjoy running outside, but not as much as the gym. I miss the gym, but I can't start any contracts until after we move. SO... help! I need a running buddy, or a good healthy snack you like, or any other secret tips. Come on, tell me what you got. :)
I've been good though, I mean rain or snow or shine, I try to go out for a run/jog/walk everyday. Ice on the ground yesterday? That didn't stop me. Ok, maybe it didn't stop me for about 10 mins and then I came back in...but still.
When it's warm I have no problem going out to run
It's the freezing, windy, cold days that are the hardest
And let me tell ya, pushin these two is NOT easy!
So what else, what else do you say to do besides running? And of course, the obvious, eating healthy. :)
Well everyone, my next post may or may not be in a new home somewhere else closer west to our families {keeping my fingers crossed :)} until then, We DID IT!..almost.

Yay! Can't believe 4 years is up already! Great job Nick especially, but you and the kiddos too! You guys moving to AZ? Haha just kidding! Hopefully you'll be closer! Oh and let me know what you find out about exercising. I haven't really exercised since Ellie was born. So bad. But we're going to try and buy a treadmill! Then I can be able to run and not have to buy a gym pass.
WHOA! Way to go, you guys!!!!! That has to feel so good to be so close to being done! 2 more years for us... But I'm happy for you! :-) :-) :-)
That's so exciting, I think it'll be bitter sweet when we're done with dental school. :) Good luck selling the house and deciding on where to go! Dana, we're totally in sync! I just put on 5 pounds, too, out of nowhere! (probably junk food) As for exercise, I mainly run, do weight/workout videos, and I'm lucky because a few girls in my ward do aerobics and yoga classes 3 times a week that are SO fun and really good workouts! I think for me, it's all about eating better. It was awesome a few months ago when I had a stomach virus and lost like 10 pounds, haha, but now its all back. :( But you're so tiny, 5 pounds doesn't even make a difference!
Um. HOW did I just find your cute blog? Seriously? And my goodness you are SO SO gorgeous....seriously. As for gaining 5 lbs...psh! You are so skinny and look so good, but I'm all for you working out to FEEL better because you already look SO good. I'm inspired that you run rain or shine, good for you-you'll lose that 5 in no time...putting you on my blog list now!! :)
