Katie is a great climber and can go up the stairs with no problem. She climbed all the way up our hill this week. She had to get six shots on Friday and had a tough weekend with sore legs.
Mary and I are learning sign language together. We were watching conference and I said, "Mary, look, that's the prophet" and she said, "Oh yeah, he fixes Woody's arm." (she thinks President Oaks looks like the character in Toy Story 2 who sews up the tear in Woody's arm.)
Mom found a coconut curry recipe that she likes and even got Mary to try it!
Dad had to deal with drama at work this week. They have a deadline in a couple of weeks and mistakes keep being made so Paul and his team are trying to get it together so they have something to send to their customer by the deadline.

Monday we watched the Durocher's. Tuesday Mary had dance class. Wednesday we went to the park with the Gochenour's. That night I went to mutual where we watched the tribute to President Nelson. Thursday we had exercise class. Friday we went to Reno for Katie's 12 month wellness check, she is doing great! Then we went to Scheel's after. We looked at the fishes and the girls played on the playground there. One of the employees gave the girls little plushie dogs with the Scheel's logo on it, it was so nice! Saturday ShaLay and I played tennis in the morning. We watched the Saturday morning session of conference then I taught violin in the afternoon. I had a little video interview at the violin/dance studio that night to promote music classes. Sunday we were able to stay home and watch conference, which was nice after a crazy Saturday. I loved all the talks and music. We also Facetimed with cousins and grandparents in the afternoon.

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...
