 Happy Birthday to Lizzy on Monday! It was Labor Day, so Paul got the day off from work. We cleaned the house then went to do some yard work. While we were putting an edger in, the top of the nail broke off and flew up and hit Paul right in the eye.  It obviously hurt a lot and we took him to urgent care right away.  He was losing vision in his eye, I think from blood pooling in the eye.  The doctor said that there were no fractures and he would give him a referral to see an eye doctor to check out the tissue.  Paul saw that doctor a different day and the tissue was healing well and his vision came back after a day.

Happy anniversary to Mom and Dad on Tuesday! Wednesday, we went to the park with the Gochenours, and there is a farm right next to the park, and ShaLay saw a goat on the other side of the fence, so the little girls ran over to take a look and pretend to feed it. Happy birthday to Sierra on Thursday. We went to the exercise class on Thursday and for the kid dance Mary actually got on the stage and participated! School has started, so it was only the little kids there, and I think that made it more fun for them. 

Friday, Mary and I went outside and worked in the shade to rearrange the rocks on the side of our house. In the afternoon I took her to the park again, and she played with another little girl there, and of course loved being on the swings. She hadn't wanted to nap earlier, so it looked like she was falling asleep on the swings. That night I went out with the sister missionaries. We knocked doors together and dropped by to visit some part member families, but no one was available to talk, hopefully next time we'll get a lesson in.

Mary has also had a hard time sleeping this week. She's cried in her sleep but not woken up all the way, I think she might be having nightmares. I think she's going through a growth spurt too because her naps and bedtimes have been more of a struggle, but she's not quite ready to give up her daytime nap.

Sunday was a busy day. We went to the ward council and church. Matt, Hannah, and Addie facetimed us after church. They are getting excited to welcome their baby Miles in December. Then Paul had to go to work for a couple of hours. Then I cleaned up the house before we had a relief society presidency meeting at the house. Mary was well behaved for the first hour, but then needed more attention, so that helped keep the meeting from going too late haha.

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...
