here and there

I always love when other bloggers post random lists of things on their mind, but for some reason feel silly when I sit down to do it.  Here's to getting over it and posting a random list.

  1. I'm not sure what's up with Oklahoma weather this winter, but it hasn't really been COLD.  We've had cold days here and there, but overall it's been a fairly warm winter.  I'm not complaining- it's a lot easier to get out and about with a baby when it's not FREEZING.
  2. Speaking of the cold, baby girl has totally messed up my temperature.  I am hot all. the. time.  I've pretty much lived in t-shirts and cardigans this winter, even on the coldest of days.  Which makes me wonder how in the world I survived the heat of summer after I had JM.
  3. I started watching my niece and nephew a couple of weeks ago.  I only have them twice a week, and I absolutely love them to pieces, but man I am exhausted at the end of those days.  You moms of lots of littles who are close in age, I commend you!  You rock!
  4. I'm pretty much obsessed with the website SkinnyTaste.  It's got the best, simple recipes, and they're all healthy.  In my effort to a- lose baby weight and b- be healthier, I've been using at least two of her recipes in my meal plan each week.  So far they've all been awesome!
  5. I joined a gym close to my house last weekend.  It's tiny and doesn't have a ton of the extra stuff, but it's cheap, had treadmills and a few weights.  That's really all I need.  I went for the first time last week and attempted to run.  I've got a long way to go, but it felt so good to get moving again!
  6. JM is home from school today.  He woke up last night with a fever and nasty cough.  I gave him  medicine and put him back to bed in our room.  Of course, he woke up this morning feeling fine and fever free, but I kept him home and am giving him benadryl to try and dry up his snotty nose!
  7. Something about nursing makes me hungry all the time.  I think the last time I went to the grocery store I bought equal parts meal food and snacks.  The snacks are all gone.
  8. A long time ago I started a post about words I hope JM never says right.  I need to finish that, because those words are quickly becoming right, and it makes me sad.  I want him to stay little forever.
  9. I have started watching Gilmore Girls again.  I love everything about that show and have always wanted to live in Stars Hollow.
  10. I started going to a mom's bible study at my church a couple of weeks ago.  We're going through the book "What's It Like to be Married to Me?"  It's such a great group of moms and I always leave feeling so encouraged.  Plus it's nice to have real conversation during the day!
