Summer Goals!
Maybe I am a glutton for punishment Starting my summer goal so late, But I guess its worth a try. This summer I plan on losing forty pounds by September. As you all know, we are trying to have another baby. While I am at the same weight I was at when I became pregnant with Savannah, I am hopeing for a healthier pregnancy the next time around. While pregnant with Savannah, I became Diabetic(only Gestationaly). I also Lost over 35 Pounds. I am not quite sure how I feel About that however. I stayed off the sugar and didn't add the 500 extra calories you are suppose to eat Because of the baby. Of course the 35 pounds was over the course of 9 months, But I feel that with exercise it should be no problem. Because I was on bed rest, i couldn't work out while pregnant. Although those who really know me know i didn't really listen to the bed rest thing either after we passed the miscarriage stage. So far this summer I have lost ten pounds. I am Eating Healthier-ish, and trying to stay off the sugar. Which is a feat in itself. Sunday Is my Cheat day. I eat what ever I want that day. To an extent. And after I work out on Monday,Wednesday, and Friday, I treat myself to a swim. Most of all, I am trying to stay active.

New Begginings?
So, Juris Lost his job with Platinum Protection. Our Car broke and we had to put in a NEW ENGINE. Anyway, Since they let him go, they felt they needed to let me go also because they didn't want me being bitter to people who still had Jobs. SO were moving Again. This time to Lehi. A friend of ours is helping us with the job Search. We'll keep you posted.

Playing Catch-up
I know its been an While since we have been able to post anything. And of course we couldnt barely get on the site at mom And dads house. So we have finally started getting settled here in Cottonwood Heights. What a georgeous place. It still blows my mind waking up and seeing mountains all around. Both Juris and I are working for Platinum Protection. Juris is a Technician And I am the Office Assistant. Which is great because I get to bring Savannah To work with me. She is really turning into a social Butterfly. She goes up and says Hi and Bye to everyone who comes into the office. SHes Adorable. Anyway ill be uploading some pictures and such to our blog and try to catch up on everything.

I hate moving!
I know it has been a while since we have posted anything of substance. I feel like my life is so boring compared to others. Well, I guess moving isn't boring. In fact, its downright brutal. We are trying to down-size our belongings. Which is a task in itself. With Savannah's help it took Alot longer than I hoped it would, but she just loves helping Mom and Dad. I cant believe how much Crap we've accumulated over the years. Like bins and bins of baby clothes. For both boys and girls. When I was pregnant with Savannah, I was positive she was a boy. So I Started buying crap loads of stuff for boys. I didn't mind having to start again when we found out she was a girl. However, I'm not going to get rid of the boy clothes I do have. Down-sizing is one thing, but wasting money is ridiculous. Juris Says" well, this way you' ll get to go shopping again." And I replied" My shopping is inevitable, But I would rather just pick up where I left off. I don't want to make Shopping a Chore. Then it loses all its fun." I know Amber(the Resident family shopaholic) is feeling me. Right?
Anyway, Trying to down-size, while packing is a chore in itself. Throw in a two year old "Supervisor" and you've really got your work cut out for you. Especially when she pulling items out you've just packed("quality control Checks") and running around the house with them. I found some of my spatulas in the toilet. I'M not mad at her though. Just gives me an excuse to visit Williams-Sonoma. Maybe I should give her my old cake pans too and see where they end up.

Our Baby's all Growd up
So our family resolution this year was to get Savannah Sleeping in her own crib. Yes, till the first of the month she has been sleeping in between Juris and I. Luckily we have a king sized bed, so It wasn't that bad. Im sure Juris Disagrees. As of last night, she is now sleeping in her own crib, and thru the night. Just under two weeks. Not bad if I do say so myself. Now all we need to do is Just move her crib out of our room. Baby Steps.

Oh, Happy Day!
Juris And I Started our Temple prep Classes last night! It is so amazing what we both learned. When Brother Peterson tols us we were going to be learning about the Plan Of Salvation, I think Both Juris And I were Like"Piece of cake". We both learned so much. Its kinda funny too, because we are the only two in the class, so we kinda feel like its being tailor made for us. Plus its a little easier on us, because we wont feel like dorks asking questions. Anyway, our calsses wont end till probably the end of February, and were getting so antsy to be sealed in the Temple Forever. Were shooting for the end of March. Probably Around Savannah's birthday. I found the cuteset Temple dress for her. Please keep you schedules open for us. We would love for you all to atend and be a part of our Big day.

Happy Holidaze From Chicago!
Were glad to see everyone had a great hiliday season. We are so sorry that we missed seeing all of you this year. ON Christmas we woke around Nine. We tried to take as much advantage as we could with Savannah not knowing about presents. We put togeather Savannah's Kitchen the night before(I painted it pink, black and white) and had it set up in our great room, near our kitchen. We played with her for a while then Juris made a wonderful Christmas Breakfast.
D.J. got up around eleven and we ate. We didn't get to the presents till about noon. Juris was a little peeved with me since I spent all the christmas money buying presents for Him and Savannah, That he could only buy me one thing. I think I was more happy watching them open thier gifts and seeing thier faces. It was well worth it. Not that I didn't love my bread Machine. We played a game or two and then we started work on dinner. The Elders came for dinner and the roast wasn't cooked. It just wasnt cooking for some reason. So I had to microwave the roast to completion. Real Ghetto! I know. But at least the potatoes were good.
MMMM! Cantalope!
Juris Says" Wow! She looks Just like you in this Picture!" Whatever that Means
Givin' Baby Doll Loves!
Thanks Again D.J. For the Tickle me Elmo. She Cries And Screams Everytime she shes him. You've ruined Seasame Street for her. J/K Shes leaning to be in the same room as him. She'll just stay as far away from him as she can .
