Rachel is so active. She doesn't believe in walking just running from place to place. Her favorite place to be is outside because she can run around and yell as loud as she wants. Her new word is tickle. She says it over and over while doing many things including tickling her own belly. We think she said thank you, but we are not sure so we aren't claiming it as her next word until she says it again. When John comes home from anywhere (mostly work), she runs over to the sliding door to get onto the patio where John puts his bike. It is always funny when he doesn't have the bike because she still wants out.
Tuesday 16th - Tuesday morning John got up nice and early and went running 5 miles. Rachel and I went to the park and I met a couple other mom's there and they invited Rachel and me to join their playgroup. I went to Brigitta's match and she played really well. On the way home I stopped at Walmart and got a bunch of fabric for carseat covers. That night John and I just had leftovers for dinner.
Wednesday 17th - Rachel and spent the morning playing, relaxing and I worked on carseat covers. That afternoon Gloria came over to teach me to make dishtowel bibs. John didn't get home until late than normal that night because he was tutoring at the Salt Lake Library.
Thursday 18th - John went to work and I worked hard to finish 2 carseat covers. Rachel enjoyed getting to run around and play.
Friday 19th - Friday morning John drove to the trax station instead of riding his bike. I spent most of the day playing with Rachel, working on car seat covers, and making pizza. That evening our friends Kevin and Kindra picked John up from work and brought him home so he didn't have to ride the train. After dinner we all went out to the playground so Rachel could get some of her extra energy out. They stayed until almost 11 playing games before they needed to head home.
Saturday 20th - In the morning John went on a 4 mile run and took Rachel with him so I could get stuff done. After he got home we fed Rachel breakfast and then we went and played a tennis for awhile. Rachel went down for a nap and John went to clean the church after we got back. Once John was home and Rachel was awake we headed over to Tyler and Katie's house. I dropped John off there and picked up Katie. We headed over to the Expo center for the What Women Want Expo and ended up finding a pretty good parking spot. We met Gloria, Chelsi, Brigitta, and Stacie there and spent a couple hours walking around. It was fun to see some of the stuff that they had. Once we were finished we headed back to Tyler and Katie's house so that I could get John. John ran to the store with Rachel for some stuff and I got things ready for dinner. We had our friends Becca and Joe come over for dinner and games. They were here until 11 playing, it was a lot of fun but I was very tired.
Sunday 21st - Rachel woke up before John and I were ready to get up so we just pulled her into bed with us. She mostly just sat on John but she also enjoyed pulling my hair. John went to the 10:00 Temple Dedication session while I stayed home with Rachel. Once he was home we put Rachel down for a nap, ate lunch, and then I laid down for a nap while John played on his computer. That evening we had a couple from our ward over for dinner. It was a lot of fun to get to know new people. Later that evening after our dinner guests had left we had our friends Becca and Joe over for games which was a lot of fun. Rachel had a very odd night and had a hard time going to sleep which is not like her. She then woke up an hour later, but went back down really easily.
