Newport Beach


I think we have found our home away from home. Yep, Newport Beach. We spent the weekend there again and loved it! It is a pretty quick drive, the weather is amazing and we feel like we are able to "get away" without having to go to far. Check out the website for more pictures!

Slacker!

Ok, so I know I have been a slacker poster the last few weeks. However, I do have a few excuses, whether or not they are good ones...I'll let you be the judge! First and for most it is potty training time at the Poulsens. Megan has done a great job and I can now say that (I think) she is pretty much done (watch for up-coming posts on her having too many accidents:-). She hasn't had a accident in a few days and just came running in to tell me she had to go potty (while she was watching Dora!!) I can't believe that my "baby" is potty trained! Now we just have to work on getting rid of the binky!
Excuse #2- Our stake has decided that each month 3 people from each ward will be called on "mini-missions" where you are asked to attend the temple 10 times in a month. They call you from the pulpit and as they were getting ready to call the 3 people for February I sat there thinking how awful it would be to get called in February because it is a short month....we'll I got the call and I am now attend the temple 2 to 3 times per week depending on the week. A HUGE thanks to all of my friends for taking my kids while I go:-)
#3- Jeremy is studying for oral boards! Enough said.
#4- We have been house shopping. It is super fun but VERY time consuming! I will let you know if we find one we like.
#5- We are getting ready to take our product (colenz.com) to a health spa convention in LA at the end of the month! It takes a lot of time to put it all together!
I could probably think of a few more but in the interest of time and it is time to put the kids in bed...Jer is on OB call and we have "muffins with mom" early tomorrow morning at school! I promise to do better. Hopefully I will have another post before my ultrasound in a few weeks...yes, we are going to find out if it is a girl or boy!!! One surprise was enough for me.

Hinckley Challenge

I just got an email from a friend in Michigan. Someone has started the "Hinckley Challenge" to read the Book of Mormon in 97 days. I thought it was such a great idea. Check out the link if you are interested... hinckleychallenge.com. Check soon because it starts tomorrow (2/4/08). I thought it was a great way to pay tribute to such an amazing man. Good Luck!
