Hiking in the hills of Novato

Jeremy and I decided to take Doodle Bug on a hike today in the hills of Novato. She had lots of fun running on the trails, through the creek, and sniffing (basically, trying to eat) special "cookies" (horse droppings) every chance she got.

A big THANK YOU to youtube.com

One of Jeremy's favorite things about his clinical rotations is dressing up in his new clothes, although he's never been able to tie a tie... Before we came up to Novato, Travis tied all his ties so that Jeremy could just slip them over his head and tighten them. Well, that's not much help to the new ties we bought from Marshall's...Jeremy tried to figure it out on his own many times, then finally we decided to youtube it...

Thank goodness for the internet!

Our new home gym!

So lately I have been chaperoning multiple football, basketball, and wrestling events at the high school...well once we got my paycheck, over some delicious Henry's burgers, we made the decision to drive over to Sports Chalet to purchase a treadmill! It has a fitness journal (which keeps track of your daily exercise), an iPod hookup, and cup holders (every treadmill comes with cup holders, but it's still awesome). Jeremy has been the only one to use it so far because I have been sick for the past week. We attempted to get Doodle Bug to try it out, but she was more concentrated on sniffing the lettering on the track instead of walking, which resulted in her falling off the end of the track...haha.

A little pre-Valentines Day excitement...

So every year when Valentines Day rolls around Jeremy always does something super cute/romantic to surprise me. Last night we got into a heated discussion over the ridiculousness of buying flowers for Valentines day, that the day is/isn't just for single people, flowers are a waste of money, different options for Valentines day, and did I mention flowers??? haha. So I was very surprised when I walked into my classroom to find this...

2 giant balloons, a chocolate fish, a beautiful bouquet of flowers, a musical dog that dances in his boxers, and "I Love U" spelled out in candy hearts (using only the yellow and orange ones, because those are my favorites)...
I have the BEST husband in the whole world...not to offend anyone...but you must admit, he's pretty awesome! Love you Jeremy!

Family bonding time...

We sure do enjoy being pre-parents with little Doodle Bug. Her favorite cuddle spot is with daddy on the couch. They LOVE to watch anything on ESPN or movies that daddy rents from Blockbuster.
