Updates

I'm trying to introduce some better habits in my life, and I would like to make blogging a habit. It's a good way to journal, and I also want our families to know what we're up to.

Here's just some random facts about our life right now.

1. I work at Bright Horizons in Salt Lake. I am a toddler teacher and my kids are between 1 and 2. They're seriously the cutest things ever. Most of their parents work at the University Hospital.

2. Jonathan is still working on his master's degree at the U in Computer Graphics.

3. Jonathan is looking for a job right now. So far he hasn't had luck, but we're praying and keeping our fingers crossed that something will happen.

4. We love our apartment, but if Jonathan gets a job we'll have to move out because this is low income housing. My job=low income....Jonathan with a job=above the limit. Oh how I wish my job paid more.

5. After some convincing we finally started watching The Office and we love it. We've watched the whole series all the way through and are going through them again. We like to have a show to watch together.

6. My co-teacher Elisa convinced me to join the Institute Choir and we have so much fun going every week. The music this semester hasn't been the best, but we still have fun. We also go to a Book of Mormon class every week while J is in a night class.

7. Everyone asks how the dogs have adjusted to Utah. We kind of think this is a funny question :) They're just dogs. It's not like they won't sleep well in a new place. As long as they're in the bed with us, they're fine :) But really they've had a great time here. We take them on more walks and we have a nice hallway that they like to run back and forth in.

8. There's a Costco about 2 minutes away from our apartment and we love it! We go on a date there at least once a month and buy some stuff, but usually just wander around and look at the fun new things.

9. I have gotten sick so much since I started my job. I know it comes with the territory, but I want to hurry up and build up my immune system so I'm not sick all the time. Knock on wood, but I haven't been sick in a little while now. Back in September I even threw up for the first time in 18 years! It was quite the experience, let me tell you. Jonathan actually gets sick a lot too. I think I carry it to him a lot without actually getting sick myself.

10. I feel like I need 10 things, but I can't really think of anything else, so I'll just say that I cut my hair recently and show a picture. It looks much better in person. I'm really not good at taking pictures of myself.
