Wednesday morning I babysat Charlie and Clara, cleaned up Halloween decorations, and went with Anna to her preschool "be there" activity. Camille, Jordan, and the Alexander's came over to play in the afternoon. Anna had a little bit of an upset stomach that evening and I worked on my UEN class.
Thursday I volunteered in McKenna's class for the 3rd grade Native American culminating activity. I spent most of the time cutting brown paper sacks into vests, which they actually ended up using on another day. Her classroom station was all about teepees and they made a little one out of a brown paper sack. She also made a totem pole out of food items, did some clay molding, and made a rain stick. For lunch, the whole 3rd grade had a feast (soup, veggies, and pita bread). While I was gone that morning, Dan was able to stay home with the little girls. He even took them to the park for a bit.
In the evening I finished putting up Thanksgiving decorations, McKenna had Activity Days and dance and Ban has music.
Friday I worked on grocery stuff in the morning. In the evening, I babysat cousin Ellie and Dan was able to take McKenna and Ben to the Utah football game. I worked more on my UEN class and made a soup for Russell's baptism lunch the next day.
Saturday was cousin Russell's baptism! All the cousins sang Holding Hands Around the World. Russell was very serious and tender that day and shared a very sweet testimony.
Lara and I finally got a pregnancy picture together. Our babies will be about 2.5 months apart.
When we got home, Dan and Ben got on the roof to clean out gutters and they shared a nice Reese's snack. Then my parents arrived in town! My dad had work meetings as well as them coming to be with Grandpa Paul who was still not doing well.
We went to Zupas for dinner then headed to a corn maze! It was their last day open and we had lots of fun making it through just before it started to get dark and rain. The cut outs are always fun too!
Sunday- just over 5 months pregnant!
2, 3, 4, and 5 months.
Sunday was also baby Hazel's baby blessing. McKenna was able to feel the baby kick that day for the first time! At the lunch afterwards, at Grandma and Grandpa's house, Anna got quite the goose egg on her head by falling somehow and hitting the corner of the fireplace. I got this cute picture of some of the girl cousins playing on a "boat" while Anna iced her head. :( My parents and Mickelle came over for dinner that night. I also went to Prelude choir practice.
Monday was a normal day of Anna's gymnastics, preschool. me working on my class, laundry, and then my dad and Mickelle coming over for sloppy joes for dinner. That night we did 3 topical guide topics for FHE, had our Thompson family conference call while Dan worked on his Ward Conference talk.
Tuesday I took Anna and Bethany and went with my mom to visit the Condies. The sheep came right up to the fence probably thinking we had food for them. My grandpa's voice sounded different to me and his health was clearly declining. Though he had fun showing the girls some fidget spinners he had received. Also, my car hit a fun mileage milestone.
We ate lunch there then took Anna straight to preschool. Bethany decided not to take a nap that day. Ben had gymnastics and my parents were over in the evening for dinner and watching Slow Mo Guys videos with the kids before bed. Dan had a late night at the church.
Wednesday Bethany had speech in the morning, and after school I took all three big kids for a dentist check up. Anna was quite scared at first, but pushed through and was quite brave in the end...and no cavities for any of them! My mom made gummy candies with the kids in the afternoon. My parents and Mickelle were over for dinner again and I worked on my class while Dan had more church meetings.
