So I had a thought today. Once I have Carmen I think I am going to start walking everyday at the mall. It opens at 7 a.m. and one lap around is 1 mile. I can put both kids in the stroller and not have to worry about crowds. Most important it's FREE, CLIMATE CONTROLLED, and SAFE.
I think this along with other activities and a good clean diet will help me get results I want.

Tired
I had two good days full of things getting done and feeling good. I woke up this morning and I just want to go back to bed all day, but I can't. I have some of the youth from church coming over tonight to hang out and play games. I need to do some light cleaning and get things ready for tonight, but I have no energy. I don't know how fun I am going to be like this either.

Numerology Fun
I enjoy this kind of stuff. Don't look to much into it, but like to read about it. I am in Year 6.
Where are you in that nine-year cycle, and what does that mean for your career in 2010? Your current personal year is determined by the single digit numbers of your birth month and day, added to the current calendar year and then reduced to a single digit (or master number, 11 or 22).
For example, if your birthday is September 15 -- during the year of 2010 –- you would be experiencing a 9 Personal Year. This is obtained by the following method:
Birth Month: September = 9
Birth Date: 15 = 6 (1 + 5 = 6)
New Year: 2010 = 3 (2 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 3)
Add 9 (birth month) + 6 (birth date) + 3 (new year) to get your Personal Year (9 + 6 + 3 = 18 = 9 [1 + 8 = 9])
Personal Year = 9
Now, compute your own personal year!

This is your personal year:
What does this mean for your career? Here’s a broad overview of the energetic influences affecting your life each year.
Personal Year 1:
This year is an important new beginning for you! Launch your own business, get a new job or title, start a graduate program or move to a new location. Everything you do this year will influence the events of your life for the next nine years. There’s lots of new energy helping you change directions. There’s never been a better time for reinvention. This is also a year of intense self-focus, personal development and cultivation of talents. You are like the Sun, a self-sustaining center of your universe. Everything evolves around you and is dependent upon you. Have courage to make important decisions and move forward bravely -- like a pioneer. At times you may feel alone, but this year demands that you work mostly alone. Avoid starting trivial relationships now, because they will linger with you for the rest of your nine-year cycle.
Personal Year 2:
This is the year for cooperating with others to develop the vision you started last year. This is a slower, more gestative year which will see you nurturing what you’ve already started rather than launching new things. Collect and assimilate data, and organize details. Your success hinges on working with -- and cooperating with -- others. Be receptive. Soften the forceful energy you thrived on last year. You might feel highly sensitive this year and develop warm friendships ... even romances.
Personal Year 11/2:
In this highly charged year of personal illumination, your intellect is capable of achieving its greatest capacity -- as well as intense psychic perception and artistic creation. Inspiration and revelation are yours! The spiritual, psychic and artistic realms are your focus, and meditation or prayer will enhance all your gifts. Refine your tastes, collect art, and associate with creative people. This is not your best year for commercial success, but rather for inner evolution of your spiritual, intuitive and artistic gifts.
Personal Year 3:
This is a joyful, playful year, full of social contacts and new interests. Express yourself, get into the center of things and entertain socially. Forget long-term planning and just enjoy life; don’t make important decisions about your future. The performing arts will call you, and it’s time to look your best. Develop your skills with words -- written or spoken. Life is your stage, so enjoy it! Whatever you started in your personal year 1 is now reaping enjoyment for you. It’s your year to blossom.
Personal Year 4:
It’s time to get to work in this serious and responsible year. Get practical, establish organizational and efficiency systems, build the foundation for future growth, set a budget and do the physical work. Focus on the physical details of getting your home in order, whether that means moving, remodeling or cleaning. Engage in fitness and sports activities. Dependability and responsibility are your keys to success this year.
Personal Year 22/4:
This year, your greatest aspirations and inspirations will be put into practical reality. You’ll be bringing your most advanced ideas to a realistic and workable form. Humanity and society as a whole will benefit from your work if you choose to step up to the plate. It’s a year of putting petty personal concerns aside and doing your best for the world at large. Make big plans and introduce enormous changes. By focusing on the positive vibrations of this number, you’ll have the opportunity to ascend to your greatest career achievements and acquire abundant financial rewards. You’ll also feel the sting of criticism that greatness attracts; in response, simply focus on your work and keep moving forward.

Personal Year 5:
Get ready for change, adventure and the unexpected in this turning-point year. During this fast-moving, action-packed time, you’ll be happiest -- and doing your best work -- when everything is changing around you. Take trips, investigate opportunities and get rid of anything that is monotonous or has outlived its usefulness. Eliminate conditions and people that are holding you back. Make room for the new. Focus on freedom and adapting to change. Enjoy this sensual year with many opportunities for physical indulgences. You’ll be super-charged, attractive and sexual. Revive your stagnant relationships or work circumstances with new energy.
Personal Year 6:
In this more responsible year, you’ll develop conscientiousness toward the important people in your life and career, while focusing on social order and balance. To be successful this year, you’ll adjust to the needs of others and enjoy group activities, both at home and work. Team efforts will be your focus as you shift away from the sensual and passionate excesses of your personal year 5. Marriage and close relationships will blossom due to your efforts to understand the people in your life. Let go of superficiality and take responsibility for yourself and others. At the same time, don’t take on more than you can carry, or you’ll fall into depression and overwhelm yourself. This is a year when general harmony is more important than your own needs.
Personal Year 7:
Enjoy this sabbatical from the physical aspects of life, instead focusing your attention on studying abstract ideas, science, mysticism, spirituality and artistic endeavors. Withdraw from the center of things and write books, go to school, meditate and do research. Refine what you began in this nine-year cycle by analyzing and perfecting projects, relationships and goals. In this quiet, introspective year, you’ll do best spending lots of time alone and allowing change to occur naturally rather than forcing it. Your intuition will be at its most powerful, so rely on it for all decisions. Pursue nothing. You’ll naturally attract what is meant to be in your life.
Personal Year 8:
The serenity and reflection of your personal year 7 is over as you jump headfirst into the world of career, power and money. If you wrote a book last year, this is the year to promote it; if you researched and developed your new business last year, now is the time to get it funded. Physical accomplishment and material success are your focus, as you reap the seeds of success you planted eight years ago. During this powerful year, claim recognition and take command to get concrete results. Think big while moving forward and managing and directing others, yet beware of abusing your power or becoming greedy. Be patient and generous to others, even if it feels tedious.
Personal Year 9:
This year, you will wrap up what you started nine years ago. Lingering relationships will need to be examined -- then kept or discarded for the next cycle. Your career will conclude the focus it has enjoyed for the past nine years, even though you won’t see your next step just yet. Rather, open your hands and let go, with faith that something new and better will arrive next year. You may be fired or laid off, or simply come to the end of a project you’ve worked on for years. Relationships will fall away or be transformed, and you’ll grieve for your losses over the past nine years. Peace will come from finding your wisdom and developing a greater connection to spirituality. The larger lessons of life will call to you, and your insights will be heightened. Use this awareness to benefit the people around you. Give back to the universe, focus on artistic and spiritual disciplines, and wait for the new inspiration that begins soon in your approaching personal year 1.

Does this Help the Building Up of Zion?
Yesterday in church, Sunday school to be exact, we were asked a very good question, What top 5 things do we want to achieve in our lifetime? Then once we had written the items down we were asked 'do your goals help the building up of Zion?'
I was surprised and shocked that all 5 of mine did in fact. I am in a place spiritually where I think about my actions, thoughts, and goals and try hard to keep them in line with Heavenly Father. It has taken me a long time to get there and I truly believe that becoming a mother has helped me get here. I hope I can stay on this current path and continue to grow.
So, the question will remain for 2010 and the rest of my life, are the actions, thoughts, and goals building up Zion?
Zion being-pure of heart; city of holiness; one heart/one mind; doing the Lord's will no matter the cost/challenge.
Recognizing that God gives us everything and being able to understand this and give everything back to God is going to be part of my growth for 2010. I want to commit to myself that I will give when asked and search out ways to be a better disciple of Christ.

Preparing for Christmas
I can't believe that Christmas 2009 is here already! Where does the time go?
We are all ready the presents are wraped under the tree and now I am trying to sell or give away the extra things in our house. So far I have been able to get rid of most of it. Jeff and I decided to sell our cherry wood table that I love, but it is just too big and I think I want a different table now anyway. I have a good table that my Mom gave me when we got married and I am keeping it because it can be super small or very large.
I am so excited for 2010. I know I have said that before, but I am.
Our library is so cool! They have an old NSCA text book and so I checked it out and am making a study plan for myself. I am pretty sure that I want to get my personal training certificate this year. I am adding it to the list. I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to personal train while I am going to school for my nutrition degree. Once I graduate (2 more yrs of school) then I will focus on nutrition with the addition of my personal training knowledge. I would love to get two degrees, one in nutrition and the other in exercise science. I will have to see what kind of time and money we have for that.
I finally feel like I am on a path that I am needing to be on. I have been praying for direction and guidance for my life path to help me feel fulfilled and I feel like Heavenly Father has given me my answer. It just makes me happy and excited.
Jeff gets 4 days off for Christmas which is AMAZING. It will be nice to have extra time with him. We need it. 2009 Has been a hard year, I am just glad that it is ending on a good note and I can move forward. 2009 can suck it. I am so glad it is over. I don't have much to say about it. There was good in this year, but mostly alot of trials and pain and growth.

Christmas Music
I have to say that I love Christmas music. I will listen to it year round. I finally put all of it on itunes and I have 8.3 hours of Christmas music. I thought it would have been more, but I still think that is alot. Especially thinking I can go 8 hours without hearing the same song twice. I wish that I had a great singing voice so I could belt out the wonderful melodies. My voice is better blended in a choir. Anyhow, enjoy the season and the beautiful music that helps us remember our Savior.

Craigslist
So, I really love craigslist. I am on it everyday to see what kinds of things people are getting rid of. I was able to get a life fitness stair stepper for free, plus other small things. The stair stepper is absolutely the best thing I have gotten so far. I have also been able to get things out of my house quickly and without a hassle because of craigslist. I have sold things and bought things off the site usually without any hiccups BUT it seems that the closer we are getting to Christmas, the crazier people are getting. Wanting things for unreasonable amounts or for free. No-shows, or just dumb emails with dumb questions.
Craigslist is very busy this time of year too it seems and I will be so excited when it goes back to normal after the holidays and all the freeloaders, gimme gimme types are gone. It may sound hypocritical because I love the free stuff, but I'm talking about the people that post things like 'I can't afford a Nintendo for my kid, need one for free.' This is actually happening!!!
I guess I just get annoyed with the people that struggle and don't want anyone to know and they try to keep up with the Jones' and they don't even teach their kids how to be frugal and that you don't need everything you want. Where did those days go???? I didn't grow up privileged with everything I wanted and many Christmas' I was happy to get socks and underwear because I really needed them and I knew that was a hard thing for us to afford.
How are kids suppose to grow up and understand how the world works and become hard workers if they are always given everything they want no matter if they can afford it or not. No wonder our America is going down the tube faster than we can keep afloat.
CHRISTMAS is NOT about the THINGS. IT'S about the SPIRIT, FAMILY, FRIENDS, and MOST important CHRIST!!
Had to get that off my chest. Thanks. I wish I could get rid of presents at our house, but my husband really likes buying things for each other. I would love to spend the season serving others and doing things to show how much we care for each other, not put a price tag on it. I feel like we live in such a backwards world. Always focusing on the wrong thing.

Slow but Productive
Today, I have actually been able to clean the house and do all the laundry. All I have left is to put the laundry away. I even deep cleaned the kitchen, minus the floors. Oven, micro, sinks all are clean and pretty. I didn't feel like leaving the house today so my goal was to clean out Micah's toys (done), clean his bedding (done), put his bedding back on (done), vacuum the floors (done), get all laundry done (just need to put away), detail clean the kitchen (done).
Tomorrow I plan on getting some groceries and then we have the ward Christmas party in the evening.
This year is almost over and I'm kind of glad. It has been a long hard year. I am looking forward to 2010 with so much in store for us. The baby, my weight loss for good, and moving. It will be a busy year for sure. I know you can start over each day, but it is fun to think about what a new year will bring.
So, have you been thinking about your goals for the new year yet? What are some of them?

11 weeks to go
I have 11 weeks to go and I am already HUGE. I just hope that I don't get to much bigger. Micah is noticing the change and realizing that something big is happening. He is getting very clingy, which is very uncommon for him, and he is not sleeping well. I know it is just a phase, but I am tired and getting up multiple times in the night is hard on this HUGE body of mine.
I hurt all the time. Most times it is tolerable and I go about my business as if nothing is wrong. Other times I just can't hide it. The doc said take some Tylenol and see that helps. Other than that it's just about sucking it up and dealing with it. People ask how I am all the time and I often wonder 'do they really want to know?'. Also, 'do I really want to tell?'. There is nothing anyone can do to help, so it is hard for me to tell people because then I am just complaining, like I am doing now. :)
Onto other topics
I have made out a meal plan that I am going to follow once the baby comes. I am going to start incorporating it now, so I am already to go once she is here. I am really determined to shed this weight off as fast as I can. I am hoping 6 months, but the reality is I don't know how long it will take. Especially juggling 2 kids, life, responsibilities, and other chaos that enters our life. BUT I do have the stair stepper now and even if it is midnight, I will be using it often. It will help to keep my legs strong.
I find my thoughts wondering now, so it must be time to end this post.

Long time, no post
I know it has been a long time. This pregnancy is really putting me through the ringer. I am still around and am super busy. All of my blogging has been put on hold. I just don't have time or the will power to update often.
We put the Christmas decorations up and the outside is all decorated too. Micah is almost 2 1/2 and he is very much a crazy little boy. Interested in every little thing. We got a cat, he is pshyco kitty is what I call him. He likes to jump out and scare us all the time. It is pretty funny now that he doesn't feel the need to claw us each time. Jeff is crazy busy at work. I am tired and big bellied and most the time I hurt, ALOT.
My pulled groin injury has seemed to flair up really bad this pregnancy. My joints are in pain all the time and Carmen likes to stretch out often. It is hard to imagine that I still have 11 weeks to go. I am going to take a friends advice and take one day at a time because they aren't all bad. Some days I do have energy and can get things done.
I am trying to keep up on past goals and such, but really I have just put everything on hold.
I am excited to have a girl. I have started shopping and looking at all the fun blogs out there for girly things like bows and such. The clothes are much cuter for girls than boys. Some friends are throwing a baby shower for me. I am looking forward to gathering with friends. I don't feel like I get enough me time and once Carmen comes the me time will go down even more. I don't know what to do about that.
I don't like to complain, and that seems to be all I do lately. I need to change my mindset I guess.
I am very grateful for my husband and his extremely hard working personality. I am grateful for Micah's wonderful personality that makes me smile when he isn't being a 2 yr old. I am grateful for all the blessings that are sent to me. I have so much compared to many others. Especially because Jeff has a job and we have food in our fridge and money in the bank. That right there is more than most.
I am looking forward to the new year! Starting to make my list of what I want to accomplish this next year already.
We put the Christmas decorations up and the outside is all decorated too. Micah is almost 2 1/2 and he is very much a crazy little boy. Interested in every little thing. We got a cat, he is pshyco kitty is what I call him. He likes to jump out and scare us all the time. It is pretty funny now that he doesn't feel the need to claw us each time. Jeff is crazy busy at work. I am tired and big bellied and most the time I hurt, ALOT.
My pulled groin injury has seemed to flair up really bad this pregnancy. My joints are in pain all the time and Carmen likes to stretch out often. It is hard to imagine that I still have 11 weeks to go. I am going to take a friends advice and take one day at a time because they aren't all bad. Some days I do have energy and can get things done.
I am trying to keep up on past goals and such, but really I have just put everything on hold.
I am excited to have a girl. I have started shopping and looking at all the fun blogs out there for girly things like bows and such. The clothes are much cuter for girls than boys. Some friends are throwing a baby shower for me. I am looking forward to gathering with friends. I don't feel like I get enough me time and once Carmen comes the me time will go down even more. I don't know what to do about that.
