Goals

Today is October 1st and I have met my goal.  Back in May I decided to try using cloth diapers on Lily. They are pricey at first but pay for them self over time.  I had to use them for 3 months to not spend more than I would have on disposables.

Well I did and it hasn’t been hard at all.  I enjoy how pretty, cute and how soft they are.  So for now we are going to keep going green and saving some green too.

A new goal that I have, has been to run.  I have now ran 3 or more times a week for 3 weeks!  This is big for me a non runner.  So far it has been pretty enjoyable.  I really like the energy I get after I run and I feel much better around.  My friends and I have a goal of running a half marathon in Febuary.  So we will see how that goal goes.  Right now I am proud of myself for every day I go out and run. (Thank you Bobby and Nana and Mimi and Gramps for watching the kids so I can go!)  I hope to be saying “goodbye", to the rest of the baby weight soon.

Another interesting thing about me is that I have been in a book club since January and I have been reading a lot this summer.  My list includes:  The Help, Jesus for President, Husband Coached Childbirth, Christ Lead Childbirth, My Name is Mary Sutter, Tattoos on My Heart, A Prayer for Owen Meany, Heaven is for Real, Loving the Little Years, and I am currently reading Too Small to Ignore (it is about ministering to children).

I hope you enjoyed a little update about me!
