Katie got her strawberry hemangioma looked at, the doctor said it is benign. She scraped her cheek on the t-ball toy, so Mom tossed that out. She loves dancing and singing with her sister and her friends.
Mary says magnet, "nigh-met" She also loves Pokémon. We've watched it a lot this week. She especially loves Jessie from Team Rocket. She said, "I want the real Jessie to come to my house". She was also excited to write a letter to her aunt, Eliza.
Mom had a slow week to start but still fit in 3 runs this week, including her Saturday 10k. She successfully completed a full week of keto, she's completed 12 days in total.
Dad had a good week of exercising hard and eating well, even though the food was not his favorite. He had a fun time hanging out with his friends at BWW for Tami's birthday. Kieran, Boyu, Will, and some other guys also were there.

Our normal activities were canceled this week for spring break, so it was a slower week. Monday I just did the normal weekly clean. I've been wanting to get bean bags for the girls and someone posted that they were giving theirs away so we went to pick them up and cleaned them off. They got pretty dusty from being left outside but we got them pretty clean.
Tuesday we took Katie to the pediatrician. She is growing so well and meeting her milestones. She has a strawberry hemangioma on her eyebrow, so we got a prescription for a topical gel for that but it turned out to be $200. I didn't buy it, so I'll have to call the pediatrician and ask about other options. After the doctor's visit, we went to the library for an hour.
Wednesday I did some yard work. Thursday we went to the new park they built next to the pool. Friday, Dad came home early. We went to Wendy's for dinner then went to Silver Springs to sell some guitar stuff but the buyer stood us up. Saturday I started the day with a solid 10k. We had breakfast together then went for a walk to the park. That night, Dad went to a coworkers birthday dinner at Buffalo Wild Wings and watched UFC fights there.
Sunday I got the girl's dressed, prepared sign-up sheets for the youth fundraiser, and put together an activity for singing time. Then I went to church with the girls. We picked up our sieve from Rine Bake on the way home and she gave us some tallow that she made.

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...
