We went down to AZ on the weekend of the 8th and I ran my half marathon with Brenda. We ran the first 10 miles together and then she fell back. I ran it in 1:49:33. Brenda was a couple minutes behind me. I didn't beat my previous time, but I still did pretty good. I had an average pace of 8:40. My last race I did 1:42 with a 7:50 pace. Once I realized I wouldn't beat my time, I just wanted to try and go under 1:50 and I barely did it!
Brenda and I got sick with food poisoning 4ight after our race. It was miserable! Reagan's baptism was that afternoon, so I felt so bad for Brenda! On the Sunday evening after there was a special devotional for the Phoenix valley with President Nelson and President Oaks with their wives. It was neat to be there for it! We watched it through broadcast. They had it live in the Glendale Stadium.
William is growing up so fast! He says a few words if we ask him to say them. Sometimes he'll say them on his own. He says cheese on his own, which is so cute! He also says juice and apple. He also will sometimes make an elephant noise while lifting up his arm like a trunk, which is so cute! He's been waking up in the middle of the night lately, and it's been so rough! Last night I was up with him until 3:00 am! I got 4 hours of sleep.
I've been spending a lot of time with friends and cousins in Utah. On Saturday night, Austin hung out with his cousin Mike, so I went and hung out with my friend Sydney. I've been watching The Bachelor with my cousins Kamakea and Rachel, which has been fun!
Today I helped Sharon learn how to do some things on her iPad and then helped her post a blanket for sale on KSL. She wants me to teach her how to do it and let her do it. It's kind of hard because it would be easier for me to just post it online for her. But she wants to learn how to do it. Since she has a hard time with speaking and moving, it makes it pretty slow. But I'm gonna try to be patient. It will take time and lots of patience. It will definitely try me and help me learn to slow down.
Austin and I have been talking about when we'll start trying to have another baby. We decided that I'll just use the rest of the birth control I have (5 more weeks) and then I will just stop using it and we'll go from there. It seems so soon but I do want to have more kids and have them not too far apart. William is almost 15 months now. The thought of being pregnant again is daunting but also exciting. It's hard to plan a pregnancy around life since so much is going on this summer. Summer is a hard time to be pregnant because that's when all the fun stuff happens! But with how we timed things with William, it looks like I'll be pregnant during the summer a lot haha. I may end up being sick during both the Hayden and King reunions, which sounds awful. But I don't want to put of trying too long because it could take awhile and there really is no ideal time to get pregnant.
