Never be afraid to try something new. Remember amateurs built the ark; professionals built the titanic.

June 22nd - June 28th

Rachel wants to be able to do everything by herself and to help us whenever she can. This is a sweet gesture, but her help could be classified as less than helpful. She got a new Let it Go (Frozen) poster on her wall and loves to just sit and look at it.

David continues to eat, sleep, and grow. We wish he would sleep a little longer at night, but we are getting there. He is spending a little more time awake during the day which has been another adjustment. 

Monday 22nd - Rachel, David , and I took a little stroll in the morning over to Holiday so I could get a drink, and everyone could get out of the house. We stopped by the park on the way back so Rachel could play. In the afternoon, we all got naps. John came home, and we enjoyed a relaxing evening. A friend of ours from the ward was so nice and brought us dinner. It was very tasty.

Tuesday 23rd - Rachel and I tried to head to John's parent's to hang out with everyone, but it took us a while to get there. Rachel was having a  very hard morning, and didn't want to wear pants. Once we got that sorted out, we headed over, only to have Rachel continue to be ornery, so we had to leave a little early. John came home as soon as he could to help out for the evening. We worked on getting everyone to bed early, so we could go to bed as well.

Wednesday 24th - The main event of Wednesday was a trip to the doctor for David. His belly button wasn't looking great, and when I called the doctor, they wanted to see him, so we took a trip in. Everything is fine, but we are keeping an eye on it. John was supposed to tutor, but his student canceled on him after he got to the place where they were meeting. He was not happy. He did get to come home earlier, and we hung out in the evening.

Thursday 25th - David was starting to get bored of just sitting, so I had to hold him a lot. This didn't make Rachel very happy, so it made for a fun day. After John got home, we got the kids in bed, and tried to get some rest.

Friday 26th - It was the same general story during the day. I did work on cleaning the house while the kids where asleep for the first time all week. After John got home, we went to Zupas for dinner with Jeremy and Heather and their boys. Before we went, Rachel and Logan had a blast playing in our patio, and Heather was so nice to go out with them. Dinner was really tasty. We also went to Baskin Robins for desert. Rachel had a lot of fun eating our ice cream using the sample spoons they give out. They had to leave to get the boys home, so we finished up, headed home, and went to bed.

Saturday 27th - John got up really early to go for a run with his family. Originally he was supposed to run 12 miles, but it turned into 14. It was down a canyon, so he started feeling really sore after. Jeremy came over to shower at our place so he didn't have to go back to Lehi for a short time. In the afternoon, John and Jeremy went with John's other brothers to go throw discs while everyone else took naps. John ran and got a haircut after. Once he got back from that, we went for a short drive to look at some neighborhoods to see if we could find any for rent signs. We found one complex, but are hoping to find something a little better. We went home, and Kevin and Kindra came over for dinner. We made breakfast for them. It was really yummy. After they left, we got ready for bed, and tried to get some sleep.

Sunday 28th - David woke up too early, and Rachel woke up shortly thereafter. John took Rachel out to the front room to keep her happy and get her breakfast while I sat with David and got ready for the day. John worked on our part for family dinner, and got ready. He and Rachel headed out to church, while David and I tried to get naps. Shortly after they left, though, David threw up and I had to clean it up. We both got short naps after that before John and Rachel returned home. After they got back, we packed up and headed over to family dinner. After family dinner, we returned home and while Rachel was in the bath we FaceTimed with my mom. We got Rachel to bed, and our friends Becca and Joe came over to help us break in our new copy of Towers of Babel (which they had given us for our birthdays). Joe destroyed all of us and John and I didn't do very well due to the new aspect of the game. After they went home, we headed to bed.
