Nick
- Finishing his last semester at Indiana University. He is just 2 classes away from getting is MBA and we all could not be more excited! He has managed school very well and has always made time to be with me and the girls. He does most of his school work in the evenings after the girls are asleep and then all day Saturday.
-He is still working at Main Streen Capital and loves everything except the hour daily commute. He works in Summerlin so it is quite the drive every day. We are hoping to move soon and cut that time in half. He leaves at 630 and is home by 5ish. It is so nice to have him home to help with dinner and the girls that time of night.
- Then he became a seminary teacher and it through us all for a loop!! He just started 3 weeks ago and we are still trying to figure out how this will all work. He leaves every morning at 540am and the week that he teaches (he team teaches luckily) gets home around 8pm. He has been staying late at work to plan his lessons and do school work. He comes home worn out and I must say I am pretty burnt out too! I love weekends and having his help in the mornings and bed time...oh I just love it! But he loves teaching, the kids he works with, and planning his lessons. I know that we will get into a rhythm and this new schedule will become normal. I knew that marrying such a wonderful man would have a price. Everybody just wants a piece of Nick's goodness:)
- Taking kids to the library, joyschool, park dates, grocery store, and everywhere else. They are my buddies and go everywhere with me. Just the other day I hauled them into Lowes to get some parts for our stroller and I found myself in a crowd of men in the hardware department. I didn't really fit in:) My girls have learned to sit very well in a cart and be pretty patient!
-In February my sister Emily and I became certified health coaches. We work for a company called Take Shape for Life. It has been such an eye-opening and fantastic experience. I have became more out going and expanded my knowledge on all things business. 2 weeks ago I was sitting with our accountant chattin' it up about a series LLC and S corps and it dawned on me "this is totally awesome." Still working on understanding it all! We sure love working together and watching this program change lives. It has been one of the best decisions for me. I feel that it has pushed my knowledge, made me more productive, and made me see that I can go out of my comfort zone and be successful!
-Scarlett is in joyschool not preschool which means that I have to teach...yikes! Talk about going out of my comfort zone. Luckily, there are 6 kids in the class so I only teach 1 out of 6 weeks. I can totally handle that. Scarlett is so excited to have school at our house and show all her friends her toys. We do it with ward members so I really like how close all the houses are and that she knows the kids very well. I hear her talking/singing to herself about all her new friends. I teach in 2 weeks so wish me luck!!
That about sums us up. We love date nights...enough said!
