Jacob's eye doctor appointment went well, very quickly actually. The doctor said that his eye is definitely turning in, and even turns in when wearing his glasses, but not as much so. So he's to wear his glasses for 2 months, then will be going back in for another appointment at which his eyes will be dilated and they'll do a more thorough exam. I don't know much more than that, to be continued... He's doing well wearing his glasses again, we're back to going in fairly regularly to get them adjusted over and over, argh...

Juliana is doing SO well in dance class! She sure has come a long ways since she started back in September! It's been so fun watching her have fun in dance class, and even moreso, watching her dance at home!!! She closes her eyes and practically floats around the room! The funny thing is watching JACOB practice with her. If she isn't quite getting something right, then he goes "No no, I'll show you, it's like this..." and off he goes :-)

I'm also happy to report that my weightloss is going well. Lost another 3.4 lbs last week, for a grand total of 17 lbs in the first 5 weeks. My goal is to hit my half-way point by my birthday (23 lbs to go to get there, in 4 months). I'm working very hard on this, I am SO motivated and SO excited!!! I've been working out every day, watching every little thing I put in my mouth, have been trying to be more active in general, and it's really paying off! I'm starting to notice the changes, both in my body in general, and also in how I feel, and I love that!!! I have so much more energy, feeling "tighter", and am finally getting back into some of my old clothes. Anywho, I'm getting there, still at least 63 lbs to go over all, but I'm getting there!!! YAY!

Also, as for my bible reading, I'm definitely reading more often, but need to keep working towards making it a daily thing. I'm finally done with Mark and have started Luke. It's been really neat reading these books of the bible during the months between Christmas and Easter, it makes the "holidays" much more meaningful, brings them to life and helps me keep in mind the REAL "reason for the season".

Let's see...anything else?!? Jenna finally learned how to roll over, at 9 months of age! She's also learned to wave Hi and Bye, and just started clapping this week :-) Big month of development for her!

I hope this blog finds you well and that you have a great February! Who else has been enjoying this WONDERFUL WEATHER?!?!? We've walked to the park twice this week already and the kids have been playing outside a lot! LOVE IT!!!

Great job on your weight loss Denise! That's great! I'm having a very difficult time finding time to ANYTHING remotely close to working out. Between work and two under two, it's really tough. We at least made the effort of putting our eliptical machine in the living room. It's a start, right? Take care!
I love that picture of Jenna. I hadn't really had a chance to see her smile much and it's so sweet! Congrats on the weight loss, that is so awesome! It's hard work and you're sticking with it. I'm proud of you. From everything I've heard, long term weight loss success depends on making permanent lifestyle changes and commitment to exercise and eating right. You're going to do awesome! See you at the next MOPS :-)
I am so happy you updated! Yes I do see you on facebook but I still don't understand how to navigate it and don't see many of those updates. Jacob looks great in his glasses and I am glad that he is not upset about going back to them. It is wonderful to watch Juliana at dance and great to spend time with Jenna while we are there!
I am so happy for your weigh in!!!! You are doing great! You will have to give me pointers when I am ready to join you...
Loves, Jen
Way to go Idaho!!
