March 2nd - March 8th

Rachel is starting to talk a lot more. Most of the time this is incredibly cute, but it is really hard to be upset at her when she says "no" back to us in such a cute way. When she gets too upset, we tell her to go to her room, and she will go and calm herself down, and then come back out. We have started the potty training process this last week and she enjoys being told what a "big girl" she is as she sits on her potty. 

Monday 2nd - In the morning Rachel and I headed to Joanns, while we were there we saw Katie which was fun.  After we got home and Rachel had some lunch I worked on some sewing. During nap time Rachel and I both took naps which is always nice.  When John got home he very nicely made us dinner. We spent a relaxing evening together.

Tuesday 3rd - There was a huge snowstorm but Rachel and I braved the weather so that I could go to Joanns.  I had to go to a different one then the day before because they didn't have all the fabric I needed. After Joanns we headed home for lunch and nap time.  We both took much needed naps and then I worked a bit on my sewing.  That night John had presidency meeting so I gave Rachel her bath and put her to bed.

Wednesday 4th - Rachel and I spent the morning at home. I worked on sewing and Rachel had fun playing. A maintaince guy came over to check out the vent in the master bath since it sounded like there were critters in it.  For lunch we met our playgroup at Chick-Fil-A. It was nice for the adults to visit and the kids to play at the play place. As soon as we got home Rachel went down for a nap and I worked on sewing some more.  John spent the evening tutoring so he didn't get home until after 7:00.  After he got home he spent a while fixing our satellite box. 

Thursday 5th - I worked on sewing for pretty much the whole day and Rachel had fun spreading her toys all over the house. John was supposed to tutor that evening but part way through the day the kid canceled on him so he just came home after work. After Rachel went to bed we watched Survivor on his laptop since our satellite didn't record it on Wednesday. 

Friday 6th - I spent most of the day sewing again. John was getting off work early so that he could tutor but that kid canceled as well so he just got to come home early. We spent the evening together, I worked on Bridal shower invites and we watched Amazing Race. 

Saturday 7th - The day started early for John when he went on a 9 mile run. After he got home he hurried to shower and then went to play disc golf with his dad and brother. While he was gone I finished the bridal shower invites and got clothes ready for the rest of the day. When John got home we headed for Hooper for my cousin's wedding reception. After the nice and beautiful reception we headed over to Ogden to pick up a box for my grandma. Once we had the box we continued on to Logan where we made a quick stop at Locker 42 (a USU clothing store) and then we met our friends Chet, Morgan, and their two daughters for dinner at Center Street Grill. It was a lot of fun to catch up with them and see how much their girls have grown. After dinner we headed to the game but stopped at Carols and Cathy's house to say hello to them. The game was close for most of it but at the end the refs started doing Colorado a lot of favors so we ended up losing by 5 points. It is always sad when USU loses but it was especially sad because it was the head coach's last home game as he is retiring. We stopped at a gas station on our way out of town for a potty stop and so we could change Rachel into her pajamas. She slept almost the entire way home, just waking up from a nightmare and spent the last 10 minutes crying. When we got home John carried Rachel up and laid her right down in bed and she was out. 

Sunday 8th - We all got to sleep in a little since we went to bed so late and it was day-light savings. For breakfast we actually got to sit down at the same time but Rachel finished first and wanted to sit on John's lap while he finished. There was a hot chocolate mug to close yet to far away from where Rachel was and she managed to dump almost the whole thing onto the table and my lap. It was still hot so I hurried to change while John cleaned it all up. We spent the rest of the morning getting ready for church. We all went to Sacrament meeting but John took Rachel home after that because she had a very runny nose.  After I came home from church we all relaxed until our friends Becca and Joe came over for dinner and games.  We played 4 games of 7 Wonders John won 1 of them. We won't talk about my scores.
