He is Risen

He is Risen! He is Risen! Tell it out with joyful voice.
He has burst his three days' prison; Let the whole wide earth rejoice.
Death is conquered; man is free. Christ has won the victory.


He lives to grant me rich supply. He lives to guide me with his eye.

He lives to comfort me when faint. He lives to hear my soul's complaint.
He lives to silence all my fears. He lives to wipe away my tears.
He lives to calm my troubled heart. He lives all blessings to impart.

Oh, sweet the joy this sentence gives: "I KNOW that my Redeemer lives!"

Dear Jillian,

We've spent the last 30 days together and although I don't feel totally shredded, I can say that your training has definitely helped me out.

I followed Anita for all of the workouts and modified all of the moves, but I DID make it to Level 3. Wow, you really know how to design a workout!

After 30 days here are my stats:
chest -- lost 1.5 inches
waist -- lost 3 inches
hips -- lost 2.25 inches
weight -- lost 0.5 pounds

These measurements teeter-tottered throughout the month, but I'm glad that the overall change resulted in a loss of inches.

I think I'm going to start back at Level 1 and do another 30 days but see if I can follow Natalie and stick with the harder movements. We'll see what happens.

See ya tomorrow!

Our Super Baby!

In honor of March Madness:

First Baby Food

Today we gave Lucas his first Baby Food.

It went much better than last time.

Is it Spring yet?

Right after Valentine's Day I get the urge to start my Spring Cleaning. Actually, this urge has been a constant nagging since we've moved here. We have too much stuff. And with all the things we've collected for Lucas we have even more. There is absolutely NO storage space in our apartment. So I'm in a purging mood.

Hey Ben, can we please get a house soon? :D
