Joseph had more work meetings today than most days so I planned a chill day. We watched Frozen 2 that morning with a special snack. Then we played with shaving cream (a plea from Ashton this whole time) and made a gigantic floor map.

| Tanner thinks this one segment in the movie is just hilarious and laughs so hard during it. I find it to be my favorite part of the movie just for this reason. |
Ashton's piano teacher switched to online piano lessons this week. It went well except for the slight delay in sound. So the teacher would start counting on a piece and that would mess up Ashton's counting. But we survived.

| I found Gemma soaking up "me time" away from her siblings. When she was done, all the cars/vehicles were lined up just the way she wanted them. |
Friday
Gemma had her 2 year old doctor appointment Friday morning. If there is one thing Gemma hates more than anything, it's medical personnel. Dentists, doctors, anyone wearing scrubs, etc. and Gemma screams. We prepped her for this appointment and it actually went okay. She only screamed when the nurse got her height and weight. Then, she fussed a little during the doctor's examination. Otherwise, we brought lots of toys and played in the room for a while. I had no questions or concerns with Gemma so she is just fine. She got a shot and I totally just let the nurse surprise her with it. I held her on my lap and held her head towards me. The nurse just stuck her with the shot and it was done. No drama or build up. And Gemma was done crying about 1.2 seconds later.
Ashton finished all her schoolwork finally. We hit the ground running at the beginning of the week but then lagged behind in the middle of the week.
Saturday
No construction work today! We could lay around in our pajamas and relax a little more. The workers arrive between 8 and 9am, which is typically fine. Except Lydia likes to sleep in and so do I with Joseph home. I was excited to have two days of no noise and tools around.
After our morning chores, we got the kiddie pools out in the backyard and let the kids play in them for a while. They loved it and it was a nice change of scenery from indoors. Joseph took Gemma up to clean the church quickly while the older kids and I played Racko. We spent time making cards and writing letters to people. We ended the night with some house tag.
