Katie has a new molar on the top right of her mouth! She is climbing all over the place and is so good at getting around.
Mary got sick last weekend. She had a fever and threw up.
Dad has been home this week, it has been fun to have him around more. He took Mary to dance on Tuesday.

Monday I babysat the Durocher's while Lindsay taught a fitness class. Dad left early that morning to go on a 20+ mile walk to Lake Lahontan. He made it to the end of Farmer's District where it joins the highway to Fallon when his feet started hurting. After Lindsay picked up her kids I loaded Mary and Katie up and we picked him up.
Tuesday Dad took Mary to dance for me. That night we got on carvana and bought a new car, a Toyota Corolla Cross. Our Honda Civic has been having issues lately and we were planning on replacing it later this year anyways.
Wednesday I took the girls to the park for our regular playdate. Paul stayed home and built Legos to sell them on Facebook Marketplace. We were devastated when we heard about the shooting at UVU and to hear of Charlie Kirk's passing. Dad watched his videos every now and then and I have watched them before as well. I watched more since the news broke of his assassination and admire how he was courageous in his message to promote faith and freedom.
Thursday we went to the church for exercise class, April taught Zumba. I should have left Katie home to sleep while Dad was working on the legos but I brought her and she slept/relaxed in her car seat while we danced. We got home and I deep cleaned the Honda so it would be ready to be picked up the next day.
Friday the new car came and they took the Honda away. We took it for a drive to Fallon and got dinner there then came home. We really like it!
Saturday we went to Lowe's and got the plants we needed and some garden soil so our backyard will look how we want it to again. I taught violin in the afternoon.
Sunday I planted all our new plants then Dad watered them in so I could get ready for church. Mary was feeling really sick all day Saturday and slept in our bed last night. Dad cuddled her while I was planting and her fever broke. She stayed home with Dad and Katie. I went to young women's for the first time and Rylie Johnson taught. It was just her, Arielle, Reese Johnson, Joy Seamons, and me. It was a small group but a good lesson.

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...
