We did a lot of stuff today! We didn't document a whole lot of it with the camera either, but thats ok. You all probably wanted to see photos of Brooke anyways.
2. I went for a run outside in the snow and ice. I said it before and I'll say it again - Rexburg doesn't know how to plow their streets and side walks! Most of the side walks weren't plowed at all, so I had to run on the roads which were still snowy and slushy! It got my feet wet, but was a really challenging workout because of all that resistance, especially going up hill!
3.
I went into the bathroom and closed the door and Brooke came crawling after me and waited for me to be done! She even stuck her fingers under the door and made a few banging sounds with her hands that sounded like knocking! Isn't that so sweet?! Gordon was smart enough to take a picture!
4. I finally got back onto WIC! AND, we get fruits and vegetables too! When we left, they hadn't changed it, but now that we're back, its all new! I love it!
5. I went to the store and did some grocery shopping! Thank you WIC! I love free groceries!
6. I did dishes, organized some shelves, unpacked some boxes, cleaned the main living areas and made dinner all while Brooke was taking her afternoon nap!
7. Brooke took a 2 1/2 hour nap this afternoon! She must be in a growth spurt because that is so unlike her! BUT, I was able to get A LOT done while she was down and while Gordon was at class.
My all time favorite picture of the day! Haha! What a funny girl!
9. Gordon applied to lots of jobs! A different job for now while we're still here and other finance jobs when he's done in April. I think he applied to 5 or 6 today and they were all in different states! I don't remember them all, but I know there was one in Chicago and another in Boston...maybe another one somewhere in Texas?! I dunno, but we're excited to see where we end up!
10. I folded all the laundry in the same day it was washed! Usually I let it sit in the baskets for days. For those of you who know me, thats BIG!

That is so exciting Lauren! I will be moving somewhere in the US in about a year, too. Jay will be getting a fellowship in either Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle or Nashville. Wouldn't it be fun if we were in the same city! We could become close like we were when we were kids :)

I remember the first time Brent stuck his fingers under the doorway--same situation as yours. Dan and I got a good laugh out of it and it became a game. Kids are soo fun!
You go girl! Good job on the laundry-mine sits in the basket until its empty again.
Keep applying for those jobs in Chicago! It's the best place eva!
I love that Brooke waited for you in the bathroom! hahahahaha too funny.
