Last week I spoke in sacrament meeting, so everyone came to church, which meant Winry got to wear a dress!
Monday was Monica's first day with both kids while I was at work. Things went pretty well at home, and Brooke even made a treat for family home evening!
As mentioned, my mom came out on Monday and stayed with us till Thursday night. Brooke was really shy at first, but quickly softened up once the books came out! I think everyone had a great time, and it was nice to have some more help. Brooke even took everyone to the park one day to show them all how high she could swing!
This past week Winry got her first bath at home. She took it much better than expected and didn't cry at all!
But she really liked to get wrapped up in her nice warm towel after.
While my mom was out here she had a flat Stanley for a school project for Jonathan, so we had to go somewhere good for a picture. Brooke and I took her to downtown Parker so we could get a picture on the giant Parker chair, and Brooke and I got a picture while we were there.
Thursday was moving day at work. I packed up my stuff on Wednesday afternoon, and then Thursday waited for everything to arrive. In the move shuffle the desk next to mine had a standing desk that wasn't getting moved with it's previous owner, so I asked them to strap it down to my desk! It's really nice because the desk is really small, and the standing desk gives me a keyboard tray that extends off of the desk so I can put my computer somewhere where I can comfortably sit. And now I can also stand if I want!
Brooke and I ran some errands on Saturday morning. One of which was to drop some stuff off at Salvation Army. Since we were there I told Brooke we'd go in and check if they have any games for her. Today we were lucky enough to find Cooties! I'm not sure this is even a game other than building them... the rules were missing, but that seemed appropriate to mine and Monica's memories of playing it.
Brooke continues to take care of anything stuffed and animal shaped, including the tiny bears that are supposed to hang above the baby swing. I don't know if they came off, or if she pulled them off, but they definitely needed to be buckled in and kept safe!
Today I went to church with Brooke. It was really nice to be back! I missed going to church a bunch the past month, though it was great to be with Winry too. In gospel principles we talked about the creation today. I love going to gospel principles. It's great to talk about the fundamentals of the gospel each week, and I feel like I'm learning so much! Brooke even came in with me for a little before I got her to go to nursery. She eventually left me because I didn't have fruit snacks... oh well, at least she helped me clean up chairs after church ended.
