In order to be successful with resolutions I think it is important to continually assess how well they are being accomplished. At the beginning of the year I shared these goals that I have for this year:
- Have learning time with the children each day. (I will be posting more learning activities on learningactivitiesforchildren.com)
- Exercise 3 times a week (I have 11 pounds left to loose before I am back to my pre-pregnancy weight)
- Have personal scripture study each day.
Of course there are many opportunites through out the day to teach my children throughout the day especially when I use language extension techniques with them but I would like to have more structured learning times with them. Right now I only accomplish this a couple times a week.
I don’t have a scale so I don’t know how much further I need to go to reach my weight loss goal but my husband has asked me a few times this month if I am eating properly because I look like I’m loosing weight and says that I am not allowed to loose my butt 
Our family is doing excellant at reading our scriptures everynight but I have some improvement to do with my personal scripture reading. I should be having personal scripture study each day but so far manage to do this about two times a week.

Yesterday morning I gave my husband a card I made him and a package of Resse’s Peanut Butter Cups, his favourite candy. Sariah also made daddy a card then she wanted to make another one, I thought she was going to make me one but she said it was for Bekah, she sure loves her baby sister! Today she hit Rebekah so after her two minutes in the corner she grabbed a crayon and “wrote” “sorry, sorry” on the card she made for Rebekah.
When my husband came home from work he gave me a valentine monkey.
I decided to make little heart shaped pizzas for dinner. They looked really cute and I even put italian seasoning in the dough as I was making. However when they were in the oven I decided to play with Sariah while they were baking and they ended up burning. I was upset about that but my husband and Sariah both dipped the pizza into a lot of ranch dressing and ate them. My husband also kept saying “how good they were”, I guess he was just trying to be nice.
After dinner we put a movie on for the kids and made a chocolate chip cookie cake, which we made sure not to burn Then my husband went to QFC where they have one of those$1 per night rental vending machines to find a romantic movie. We were hoping to get Enchanted but I guess it’s not out on video yet. Anyways my husband said he couldn’t find any “clean” romantic movies so he got Amazing Grace, I had wanted to see that movie for a while. It’s not romantic but a very good movie anyways.
Tomorrow there is a Family Valentines Dance at church, that should be fun!
