Quick overview from WV

Jason just had his white coat ceremony on Saturday. Zoey and I are so proud of him! He is doing such a good job adjusting to med school! It is a lot more studying than Jason is used to. He passed his first exam and has his second one friday. Jason just got called to be an Elders Quorum teacher in our ward. He is such a good teacher, he'll do great!

Zoey just turned 8 months old... time goes by so fast! She is getting so big! She is into everything and so curious. She says mama (i love it) I can't quite tell if she is actually making the connection or just saying it because its the only thing she knows how to say! She has also been making some new funny faces! She scrunches her little forehead and nose and then makes spitting noises! I love her!

I am keeping myself busy trying to keep the house clean, making meals, playing with Zoey and training for the Richmond 1/2 marathon in November. I have been getting up at 5am to go running because it's the only time that works! Its either that or go late at night after Zoey goes to bed and Jason comes home from school. It is hard not having Jason around more, but I have met some amazing people who are so fun and are in my same situation. I actually try really hard not to be a distraction to Jason. I figure I can make it a little easier on him by keeping the house clean and having meals ready for him. I am also serving as a primary teacher in our ward. I have 4 really cute kids in my class. I always seem to get called to the primary... I must have a lot to learn about kids (or patience). I have also been trying to be more creative so I will have to post a few of my projects on soon!
