Lots of changes for our New Year!

So, I finally took the time to download a more recent picture of myself. Jacob took it yesterday, in fact, Jan 11. I like it because Josiah is in it too. He is 3 months old now!

I have decided to cut out sugar. I thought I would just stop eating desserts, etc., but with the way I am I had to go out and buy a book about it. Turns out that our food supply in America is just overflowing with sugar and it's STILL not good for us. So over the next month or two I hope to have sugar out of our house. Fortunately, Mike agrees with me and is supportive of this decision. In fact, he is happy about it too. He has always wanted to limit sugar anyway. I am so glad that we agree on this. I already feel better from just not eating dessert type sweets. The kids haven't complained a bit and don't seem to notice the difference.

We are having a family conference at church later this week, followed by a teen conference. I am so excited about it (www.the-war.com). I have been able to go to church much more regularly now with all the kids and hope to be back to our regular every service schedule by the end of this month. After having Josiah I did slow down a bit, but am getting stronger and more organized daily.
