Monday 4th - I worked on sewing and Rachel played with toys and watched a movie. John tutored after work and after he got home he had dinner and spent the evening relaxing together.
Tuesday 5th - Rachel and I spent the day at home woking on cleaning the house and sewing. After work John stopped to do some tutoring and then hurried home to eat and change and headed to the church for Elder's Quorum meeting. He got home just in time to tuck Rachel into bed.
Wednesday 6th - During the day I worked on sewing and Rachel worked on making a mess with all her toys. After John got home from work or tutoring and we had dinner and then headed out to do some mother's day shopping for our moms and doing some grocery shopping. Once we got home and Rachel was in bed John and I watched Survivor and CSI: Cyber.
Thursday 7th - I worked on sewing together baby boy's quilt and Rachel had fun playing. John got home from work a little late because of a meeting at work. When he got home we had dinner and then John took apart our bed frame and put together our new bed frame with a headboard. We were super bummed and I felt bad for John because after he had it all set up we realized it was never going to fit. John had to take it back apart and put our old one back together.
Friday 8th - Happy Birthday to Rachel! We started the morning by waking Rachel up by singing happy birthday and giving her presents. My parents FaceTimed with us while Rachel opened her presents and she loved having more people to pay attention to her. John had to leave for work and I made Rachel some muffins for breakfast. She had a super fun day playing with all her new toys and watching a couple new movies. In the morning she even got to FaceTime with my grandma. After John came home we had Rachel's favorite dinner (noodles). I made pink cupcakes with pink frosting for her. John's parents, Brigitta, Grace, and Boston came over to sing to her and watch her blow out candles. Rachel loves having people sing to her so she was very happy to have lots of people paying so much attention to her. Rachel enjoyed eating the frosting off the top of the cupcakes. After we finished celebrating Rachel's birthday and she had gone to bed John and I watched Amazing Race.
Saturday 9th - John went on a run in the morning, he had planned to run 10 miles but it started running pretty hard so he only ran 8 miles. After he got home we all finished getting ready for the day and headed out. We ran a couple errands on our way to John's parents rec. center for some swimming. A couple of John's brothers were also there with their kids, it was so much fun. At the beginning Rachel wasn't so sure what she though and wouldn't leave our laps but she warmed up to the water eventually and had an absolute blast. She loved the whirlpool and running around in the shallow end. When we were done at the pool we went to John's parent's house to shower. We headed back to our apartment with Brigitta and she babysat Rachel while John and I went on a tour of the hospital and then to see the Avengers movie. It was so good and so fun to go on a date. When we got home John took Brigitta home and he ended up taking Rachel with him because she was not going to let him leave without her. It was nice to get a little break while they were gone.
Sunday 10th - We woke up to Rachel calling for us nice and early. We tried to pull her into bed to get some more sleep, but she wasn't having it. So, John got up with her and made me a yummy breakfast in bed. He made me a breakfast burrito with eggs and sausage, with bacon, watermelon, and honeydew melon on the side with orange Julius to drink. It was super yummy. I also got a couple awesome cards and two new books. Rachel was rather cranky, so we put her down for a nap at 10. She slept for about an hour while we finished getting ready for church. At church, she was still a little cranky during sacrament. The priesthood was taking over the third hour, which made sharing time very loud. John took over for me near the end of sharing time so I could join the rest of the women in the cultural hall for a get together with refreshments. It was a bit awkward, and though it was a nice thought, it didn't seem very well planned. I felt so bad for the primary president when the transition was happening. She looked very concerned. John said that one class right by him didn't have any adults in it. After church, we came home and John baked some potatoes and cooked some steak for our delicious dinner. After dinner John put Rachel in the bath and we put her down for bed and hung out. I got to read one of my new books that John got me.
