Running Club

Last night it snowed again. This weather is crazy! When I went to my car to take Emi to My Gym in the morning Marty had already cleaned it off. Such a nice surprise:) 

Other than My Gym, we spent the rest of the afternoon at home. I finished listening to "The Rosie Project" as Emi and I played together and cleaned. We also got to talk to Grandma and Grandpa Rosen which was nice. I honestly feel like I talk to my parents more now that they're in Jerusalem. When my mom was working I could only call most days in the evenings or early mornings, but now she can talk in the middle of the day which works best for my schedule as a SAHM. 

In the evening, Marty came home and we ate dinner. Then he took care of Emi while I headed to running club (softball was cancelled today). It was windy, a little snowy, and cold but I had a blast. I got to talk to a couple of moms and ask them questions about breastfeeding while training for a race and they gave me some good tips. The workout today was 3 minutes running hard and 3 minutes of recovery (jogging or walking). We did about 5 reps of that. It felt so good to be running and the track is soft which means my knee didn't hurt so bad. 

After running club I had to call Bubs and tell her about the great workout haha. We're still trying to figure out our training schedule for the marathon. When I got home, Marty had Emi all ready for bed and I just had to feed her and stick her in her crib. Then Marty and I hung out and naturally had to watch the Ted Lasso episode that came out today.

Nick's Fish House

We went to the breakfast buffet at the Fairmont in the morning. My favorite part is loading my plate with all the yummy fruit they have. (Papaya and Hawaii just go together.) Emi loves clenching her fists and making a funny, strained face. haha. We took a walk down to the beach before heading to Twin Falls. It was pouring rain when we got out of the car at the start of the hike, and I wondered what the rest of the hike was going to look like, but it ended clearing up at just the right times. I love how Emi has curls in Hawaii. On our way back we stopped at some food trucks and came back to relax before dinner time. For dinner we went to Nick's Fish House. This place is special to Marty and I because it's where we got engaged (and their Macadamia Nut brownies are top notch which adds to the special-ness). In the evening we went back to our hotel room and watched an episode of "The Floor" before heading to bed.

Last day in Paris

We scheduled a tour for St. Chapelle, Conciergerie, and the outside of the Notre Dame for this morning. I mostly just wanted to see St. Chapelle, but because we've been so busy seeing other things, when I went to get tickets on their website they were sold out. Luckily I found a tour through "Get Your Guide" that we could do that would take us through the chapel this morning. Marty and I arrived for our tour this morning and started making our way to St. Chapelle as a tour group when we found out that the employees of St. Chapelle were on strike so nobody would be seeing St. Chapelle for the day. It was a bummer, but strikes are very common in Paris. Really we just lucked out getting to experience an important part of their culture ;) With our tour canceled, we made our way to Sacre Coeur and Montmartre. The basilica reminded me a lot of the pretty churches in Jerusalem. The one thing Marty and I found odd was that there were signs all over inside the chapel asking guests

Marty! Lizzie!

Emi and I went to Chuze in the morning and then went to the park after with friends! Ronny, Jules, Evi, Isla, and Emi (of course!). We tried out a new park, Spearwood, and the kids liked it. Emi and I stayed a bit longer after everyone left and she made a new friend. It was this cute Chinese boy whose name sounded kind of like "Ethan." Anyway, his mom was doing the sort of thing all moms do at the park--cheering on their child as they try to climb up a ladder or try something new--but in Chinese. She was doing this, and then the most interesting thing happened. Emi started imitating what the mom was saying. It was so cute! Even though there was a language barrier between the mom and I, she could also tell what Emi was trying to do. It's amazing what the brain can do--especially children's brains. They are like little sponges! Anyway, I just thought that was really cool. On another note... Emi's started calling Marty and I by our first names half of the time. Today
