6 Months

Colin is 6 months old! The first two pictures of him are his 5 month ones. When I first saw his pictures they immediately reminded me of the ones of me. So I posted them together we are such cute babies! Colin's family is so lucky he's cute haha even if he doesn't sleep at night.

We are all smiles

baby blue eyes
Baby grins

Sucking on our lips

This is what his family gets to look forward to this Christmas. This is my "what? I wasn't going to take the ornamant off the tree, I just want to touch it a little".

Luck? I think not

I managed to drag out my job at the retail store almost 3 months before I started hitting the streets for hair jobs again. As you all know I have been attending my family ward, most of this year. Occasionally I will go to YSA for FHE, activities and of corse institute. But this last Sunday I met up with a gal I had gone to school with and the rest is History. I got another job! Hah I couldn't even believe it once again it just fell into my lap, and I was hired on the spot. I went in all dressed nice with a resume and she didn't even interview me. At first I was thinking "wow how lucky am I?!" and then I was like that is NOT luck. I almost NEVER go to the singles branch for church and the one Sunday (since August?) I decide to go with David, 3 other branches meet with our branch and it just so happens that my friend is in one of those branches. Once again blessed beyond belief.

Also I am going to start a blog with the hair that I do/ have done on it so I can let everyone see

my skills. Hopefully that will help me obtain a much needed clientele. This job is booth rent I'm super nervous because I have to buy all my supplies before I can do any hair. If any of you want to come and see me the info is on facebook and I would LOVE to have you come in and say hi! The salon is a bit of a spa as well so they offer pedicures, tanning, facials the whole deal and it's soooo cute! Here's a doll head I did in school. I called it the Emo-Cruella Devil haha the picture sucks because I took it with my cell phone but it was some AwEsOmE hair!

Shoot

The other day I was talking with a friend at work, we were discussing jeans. I needed a new pair and I'm too small for several pairs I used to wear! I weigh 118 I haven't weighed that in 2 years, almost what I was in high school (exciting!). She convinced me to look at a certain store and try to buy a pair of (brace yourself) skinny jeans. But in my defense I don't think they are really "skinny" jeans but they are MUCH tighter on the shin then my others, and they taper in at the bottom. You can tell me what you think....

Itouch

Remeber when I said I'd been making new friends? Well I have been! And can I just say they are awesome. I describe the neighborhood I live in "well off" and that would be a modest but appropriate way to put it. Now because of this I have benifited on several occassions (which means they must actually like me beacause my "toys" aren't nearly as cool). One of my friends recently got an iphone and he told me he would sell me his ipod touch, for half of what I paid for my nano. So I got it! This thing is sooo cool! It's like a mini laptop and minus being able to make phone calls it's just as cool as the iphone! And when I play bejeweled it's not microscopic like my cell phone :) That's all I just had to brag a little. All this time I thought I wanted an apple laptop and all I needed was this. Oh and I made this blogpost on it.

Dam

This year I've been trying my best to do things I wouldn't have been able to do because I wasn't single and that I would have normally not done because I was afraid, lazy, etc. I wasn't going to post this until January because it's a goal but I've been thinking about it so much lately that I can't help myself. This summer I want to run the Teton Dam marathon. Haha here are my disclaimers, no I'm not going to try to place, and no I am NOT an amazing runner. I've been working on it at the gym and so far my best is 6.1 miles in an hour and about 10 min.

 Normally I would NEVER want to run a marathon but I have decided I really want to do this one, just to say I have. Everyone I have talked about it with immediatly says "oh that one is really hard!" which usually would defer me but this time it's made me want to do it more ( I think I've grown to like challenges, weird). I know Kira has talked about running recently but I would just like to let anyone who wants to try it with me know that I would love company.
