Conference Weekend

General Conference

It was a wonderful weekend listening to the messages and trying to help the girls practice sitting and listening. Their primary leadership dropped off a huge coloring page that distracted them for the first session, but they were rushing and trying to finish as fast as possible, so I helped so they would take their time and fill in the scribbling. It turned out really pretty at the end, and we put it up on the wall, which made Adrian start growling at the poster that is now just in his reach. Adrian really enjoyed the music during conference and would stare at the TV when there was a choir song and he wasn't in the middle of a nap. After sitting and watching TV for so long on both days, we went to the park to get some sun because the weather was really beautiful. 

Kids

We have a new friend in our neighborhood who they met at the bus stop. They moved in last week, and she is right between the girls' ages and very friendly. She came over to play one day, and then the next free day, Claire and Shay did all their homework so they could go play after dinner and before bedtime. We've been starting and finishing some projects in the backyard with the good weather, and the girls wanted to help with the digging and transporting the dirt. It was nice that they wanted to help, but the best help was playing with Adrian, so he didn't get in the dirt! He wants to be wherever I am, no matter what I'm doing, so he gets in the way more, but he is walking around with his cute little waddle, mostly next to things while holding on, but bridges gaps when necessary.
