January 29 - February 4 2024

 Mary was still sick at the beginning of the week and unfortunately Paul and I got it too.  The weather was really beautiful though so Mary and I still went outside and did some yard work while Paul was at work.  When Mary disagreed with us she would say "no way!" Then I was climbing up our hill to get to Mary and she said, "That's it! Good job!"  and when she would throw her ball she would say, "I'll get it!" before chasing after it.

Congratulations to Jacob and Brianna on the birth of their third daughter, Violet Ophelia, on Thursday! Saturday we drove down to LA.  Sunday we went to Disneyland.  

We started by Paul taking Mary to the treehouse and the Jungle Cruise while I went on the Indiana Jones ride then we switched.  We met up and did the Pirates of the Caribbean ride, Winnie the Pooh ride and Mary got to meet Pooh and Eeyore.  We went to Toon Town and Mary got to meet Mickey, Donald, and Goofy.  She was the most excited to meet Goofy out of the three but was too shy to say hi.  She said, "I can't do it!" then pushed me and Paul toward Goofy to say hi for her.  Then we went on the Roger Rabbit ride and when it was done Mary said, "Whew! Scary."  

It started to rain in the afternoon and Mary fell asleep in the stroller and Paul and I took turns going on the rides.  It was my first time ever going on the Matterhorn and I got the very front seat!  It was really fun. Paul went on Indiana Jones again and Mary got up from her nap and we did the treehouse again.  Then we did the pirates ride again, the Snow White ride, the Peter Pan ride, which were all fun.  Then we did It's a Small World and that was a bad choice because they had rain water in the bottom of the boats that made our feet soaking wet.  Mary never complained about the rain and loved carrying around the umbrella.  We did get dinner at the Blue Bayou (the restaurant in the Pirates ride) before leaving.  Dinner was very delicious and fun!  We did the trip as an early birthday celebration and it was super fun despite the rain.

Monday I got up and pumped first thing. Paul was feeling like he wanted to go out and do something so we got ready and drove to Fallon to eat breakfast at the Wild Horse Cafe (we got takeout, of course). Mary was sad the whole drive down then Paul was sad because they soaked his whole breakfast in gravy. Everyone was upset there for a minute but we all calmed down and ate breakfast in the Fallon Walmart parking lot. Paul went in to see if they had egg whites, but they did not have them. We drove home and played outside for a bit. After I put Katie down for a nap I pumped again and Mary watched Snow White. She wasn't too scared of it, which surprised me. I cleaned up then Katie was up again. We got some Papa Murphy's pizza for dinner then watched Cinderella, which Mary loved! We ended up watching the three Cinderella movies multiple times throughout the week. She also loves the Three Caballeros with Donald Duck. I taught violin that night then pumped before putting Ma...

Monday we all slept in. When we all were awake we played in Mary's room then made breakfast. I put Katie down for a nap then pumped. Once Katie got up we drove to Fallon and got Little Caesars pizza. It was good but my tooth is still sore from getting a filling last week. We went to the park and played for an hour before heading back home. We went to Walmart for some fig newtons and chocolate milk. I tried to put Katie down for a nap but it didn't take. I pumped then cleaned up a bit. Paul made scones and I used up the rest of our honey and made honey butter. Katie went down for a nap then. We watched The Incredibles then Katie woke up. Paul fed her while I taught violin. I brushed Mary's teeth after the lesson then put Katie to bed and Paul put Mary to bed. I pumped again before going to sleep. Tuesday marked our 8 year anniversary of the day we got engaged. Paul went to work at the normal time. Mary woke me up and I made her waffles then pumped. Katie got ...

Monday morning Katie woke up at 7 and we saw Paul off to work. We played together until Mary got up at 7:45. I got my room cleaned then put Katie down for a nap. I had breakfast then finished writing my paragraph while Mary watched a movie. I watered the grass then cleaned the living room and kitchen before Katie woke up. I cleaned Mary's room and started the laundry then cleaned the playroom and office while the girls played with toys. I played with the girls then put Katie down for her second nap. I put a show on for Mary and I exercised and showered then watched Bluey with Mary. We made dinner together (spaghetti). Paul came home early so he could set up the squat rack that was delivered today. I made up the bed and Mary helped me. Katie woke up then. I brushed Mary's teeth while Paul practiced guitar. He put Mary to bed and I played with Katie before putting her to bed. Mary wandered in and I cuddled with her while cuddling Katie on my other side. Paul came in...
