Four on Friday

1. Remember how Micah thought he was a koala? :) For Christmas, then, I got him a stuffed koala. He promptly named him "Koalie" and has been loving on him ever since. I wasn't sure how he'd go over since stuffed animals have never been really big hits in our house. But Micah's been crazy attached...asking me to watch Koalie while he does schoolwork or goes to the bathroom...telling folks Koalie's life story (he was orphaned and Micah adopted him and now Noah and Asher are uncles and Nathan is the grandpa/eucalyptus tree...yes, sometimes Koalie snacks off of his grandpa, lol)...styling the mohawks on Koalie's ears...and finding Koalie friends/cousins. Thus, please also meet Bachelor (who's been living on a shelf in my office for decades, having been a college graduation gift) and Gift (a Christmas present from my mom to all three boys, though Asher's become his daddy).
It's so sweet!
2. I think I mentioned that I ordered another word of the year ring for 2013. Well, it came in the mail this week:
I've been wearing them stacked (last year's and this year's rings). Yay! :)
3. Got new running shoes! Though I still have some life left in my Newton's that I bought to start off 2012, I went ahead and used some of my Christmas money on a new pair for 2013:
I LOVE the new color scheme! (I also love that they included the green laces along with the blue ones that came standard!) I'm stoked to wear them as I start my new training plan...gonna run the Colorado half marathon again this May. Wish me luck!
4. Earlier this week, I also got a haircut:
This isn't the best shot, but you get the idea...shorter still, which makes it pretty easy. I'm still getting used to it. What do you think? :)
Well, that's my four for today. Just random little bits to share. How's your 2013 going?
