Rachel loves Frozen. Really, that feels like that is all that needs to be said. She would watch it 10 times a day if we let her, and she has figured out how to pull it up on our phones and iPad. It is getting a little bit ridiculous. She manages to push her boundaries as far as she can, but she always comes back for loves when she gets in trouble.
David continues to grow. At his 2 week appointment he weighed 8 pounds 2 ounces which is 30th percentile, his height is now 21 inches which is 60th percentile, and his head is 30th percentile. He eats, sleeps, and eats some more. John says he sure is squirmy. He likes being swaddled in a blanket as long as you don't trap his arms.
Monday 15th - John and my mom got up early for a six mile run. After they got back, they each got ready and had to leave. My mom headed out to her conference in Provo later in the morning, but it was sad to see her go. Rachel had a bit of a hard day, so I had to spend a lot of time comforting her and David. John hurried home from work so that he could help me out, and we got to bed as quickly as we could. My mom stayed down in Provo for the night because her conference went so late and started early the next morning.
Tuesday 16th - Rachel, David, and I hung out at home while John was at work. Frozen is starting to get a little old. John thought he was going to tutor after work, but his student texted him 40 minutes before they were supposed to meet to cancel. He wasn't very happy. He did get to come home, though, which was really nice. My mom had to take another teacher from the conference to the airport, so she got back to our place a little late. We had dinner and put Rachel down to bed, and then my mom offered to stay with the kids so that we could go get a treat together. So, we ran over to Arctic Circle a quick treat, and then headed home to go to bed.
Wednesday 17th - My mom was super nice and kept David in her room with her through the night so we could sleep a little better. Unfortunately this made for a long night for her, so she and John didn't go running. David and I each had doctor's appointments during the day, so we were away from home for a while. David is doing well, but the doctor's want to do an ultra-sound on his hips just in case since he was breech. He weighs 8 lbs, 2 oz, and is 21 inches tall. He is a lot smaller on the charts than Rachel was, which is weird to us. My appointment went well, and I found out that I can do a few more things than I was originally told. So, now I can carry David in his carseat, and pick up Rachel if I need to. After we finished with appointments, we headed home so Rachel could get her nap, and we all ended up getting a nap. John tutored after work, and grabbed some dinner for us on his way home since I had had a craving for KFC. After we ate, my mom, Rachel, and I had to go back out to run a few quick errands. Once we got back from that, my mom gave Rachel a bath, and we watched McFarland, which was great. It was a lot longer than we thought, so we got to bed really late.
Thursday 18th - Happy Anniversary to us! My mom had to leave early in the morning. It was sad to see her go. I am so grateful that she was able to come and help so much. Before she left we made a quick run to the gas station for a drink hoping that the trip out of the house would make Rachel happier. Later, John's mom was able to come to help me out. I got to take a shower and get ready for the day which is always really nice. It was fun chatting with her. After John got home we went out with the kids for our anniversary. We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner and it was really yummy.
Friday 19th - The morning was pretty simple. Rachel, David, and I hung out at home. John was able to come home a little early. After he got home, he watched the kids so I could go and run some errands. After I got home, we put Rachel to bed and got things as ready as we could for Saturday.
Saturday 20th - John woke up really early and went for a 10 mile run. I got up really early and got ready so we could leave for the Kidd family reunion once John got back. We got away a bit later than we hoped, but managed to get to the reunion before too late. Rachel had a blast running around and playing in the playground. Later when the water slide arrived, she had a blast playing in the water. All the ladies enjoyed holding David. I left for a little bit in the middle so I could go and get some books signed by my mom's favorite author. John spent a bit of the time I was gone helping grill up the chicken with his brothers. We hung out for a bit and had the family auction (I got a nice new quad) and then it ended. We packed up the car and drove around Logan a little bit to see how things had changed and also so Rachel could get a bit of a nap. We then met up with Scott and Ashley, two of our good friends from Logan for dinner. We went to Beehive grill, and it was a lot of fun. After dinner we drove home. I fell asleep part way home, Rachel fell asleep shortly after me, and David was asleep from the start. John didn't fall asleep ;) After we got home, we moved Rachel to her bed and unpacked some stuff.
Sunday 21st - Happy Father's Day! I got up early to make John some breakfast and keep track of the kids so he could sleep. John and Rachel got ready and headed out to Stake Conference, where they met up with Brandon and Stacie. David and I stayed home and got some rest. After John got back, Rachel crashed from all of the activity the day before. She slept for three and a half hours. David and I slept as well, and John played on his computer for a bit. During Rachel's nap, the missionaries came by. They weren't able to give us a message last week, so they came by to do it today. Interestingly, it was two completely new missionaries. They seemed really nice and shared a short message with us. After They left and Rachel woke up, we headed to John's parents to visit and wish John's dad a Happy Father's Day. We had fun reading a book about personalities. We then headed home to eat dinner. After dinner we FaceTimed with my parents for a little bit, and relaxed for the rest of the evening.
