-I have a little boy laying next to me right now who is having a hard time sleeping. He has a bit of a runny nose and of course he is my little neat freak so it's hard on him when snot is involved. Poor little guy.
-I have decided to go off of Coffee and sugar for the next 2 months at least. I've gone off of coffee before and i felt GREAT! I just love the taste and warmness of it, so I'll just have to drink some tea when i want that warm feeling and call it good. As for the sugar, I've just had way to much lately and i can feel it in my body and the way it's functioning.
-I've been training for a 10K. I never thought I would actually run more then 2 miles at a time, but I'm doing it! I've mostly done everything on my treadmill, but today i went to our local "lake" (i say lake because really coming from Minnesota where we have lakes you can't even see across, it's more like a pond)and i ran around it in 40 minutes! I was super excited because i was hoping i could do it in an hour, but it only took 40 minutes! It is 3.5 miles around, so i was going about 11 minutes a mile... so i'm pretty excited! My goal is to be able to run it twice by 6 weeks in less then an hour and a half.
- All this running has my circulation so happy! I've struggled with circulation issues and blood clots since Daniel was in utero, but now my circulation and clotting are next to none! It;s so nice to be able to drive for more then an hour at a time without feeling like my legs are going to fall off. Yippee
-I just recently reconnected with a good friend from my prairie days! It's so fun to see where old friends have moved to and how many kids they have. Her and her husband were on the 5 year plan so they just had their first little boy last year. It was fun to catch up.
-Speaking of babies, i have baby fever BAD. We had friends over last night who have a sweet little 5 month old boy. Matt asked to hold him and he said that it was making him want more kids :) hehehehehe i like to see God working on him like that and i hope to someday add more children to our family possibly through adoption. We'll see what the Lord has in store.

Wow, good for you for getting healthy!!
Kristin!? I cannot believe how fast you are able to get in shape! That's the same amount of time it takes me...by the time it's April, you and Sandi are gonna have to be waiting for me at the finish line. That is awesome. I just keep adding poundage to myself. I've come to the conclusion that I was fat both times I got pregnant. Call me crazy but I think it had something to do with it. I've had baby fever as well. We watched the superbowl at Jimmy's dad's, and they had a friend over who had a 4 week old...AMAZING!!! I loved holding her and didn't want to share! You guys are awesome parents, I sure hope the Lord gives you lots more. :)
