 Monday I went to the post office before work to pick up Paul's last birthday present because they wouldn't deliver it for some reason.  I made curry for dinner and bran muffins for breakfast for the week.  

Happy Birthday to Rachel on Tuesday!

Tuesday I made salmon for dinner.  Wednesday I made chicken rolls. 
Thursday we interviewed two more candidates and we liked both of them.  Scott didn't seem to 
prefer one above the other, so we'll see which one he extends the offer to.  They both would
 probably accept because they recently moved back to Dallas and are ready to start working.  
I made a creamy tomato pasta to use up the rest of our vegetables for the week before going to 
the Relief Society activity.  We made felt nativity puppets.  It was a cute activity and I got to get
 to know more sisters in the ward. 

Happy Anniversary to Mykael and Peter on Friday!

I was getting ready for work when I saw a spider in the bathroom and it took me about 20
 minutes to muster up the courage to kill it with one of Paul's shoes.  Scott was out of the office 
on Friday for dental surgery.  Even with him gone, I still had a busy day.  I still got home well
 before Paul did and was able to get a lot done.  I practiced piano, read my ebook to prepare for 
the baby classes I'll be taking soon, and did some crafts for the nursery.  Once Paul got home we 
got some pizza for dinner then did our grocery shopping.  

Saturday we went to the Dallas temple for an endowment session.  It was our first time attending
 the temple in Dallas since moving here!  crazy.  It was a beautiful day, so we went on a walk 
afterward.  Then Paul needed to go into lab for a little while.  Later we went out to dinner at a 
new place that had high reviews but we were both disappointed with it.  Then we went to the mall 
by our house and hung out there for a couple of hours.  

Sunday was another beautiful day, so we went for a walk after church.  Later we had a new couple
 in the ward over for dinner and games.

 Monday was my replacements first day.  We filed a PCT application.  I made tacos for dinner.  Tuesday I went in to work and had a lot to do, so I was setting up my replacement, Kaylee, with another PCT application, since she had done one yesterday.  I guess I overwhelmed her because she started crying.  I told her that she didn't have to work on the PCT if it was too much.  She ended up just shadowing me until 3 PM.  Then I passed her off to one of my coworkers to learn how to send letters to clients so I could get going on a report Scott needed done.  Paul worked until 9 PM, so I just made myself a grilled cheese and some tomato soup for dinner.  Dr. Nam was going to throw a Christmas party this year but somebody sniched and the department told her she couldn't do that.  That made Paul and me sad.  Wednesday I got to work a little early because we got our carpets cleaned.  Kaylee worked with my other coworker, Robert, all day.  It was nice getting a break from training.  It w

 Monday started with my 30-week doctor's appointment.  Everything looks good and baby Mary is healthy.  Then I went to work and the gym then came home and made an enchilada casserole.  Thank you to Wendy for the package! and Happy Birthday to Hannah! Tuesday I got a pregnancy support belt because I started having ligament pain over the weekend and my doctor recommended I get one for like the third time, so I finally did.  I made coconut-crusted cod with sweet chili sauce for dinner.   Wednesday, I chatted with mom about the shower for Thursday, I made lasagna for dinner and requested an appointment with a potential pediatrician.  Thursday morning I got a call from the pediatrician's office and they said that I just need to make an appointment once I am discharged from the hospital and that I will be taken care of by their nursing staff until they can get an appointment with the doctor scheduled (several months after the birth).  I didn't like how that sounded, so I am still

  This week was good. It was nice because on Wednesday, one of Paul's lab mates made us this salmon tikka masala dish and it was delicious and I also didn't have to cook!   Thursday I met with a pediatrician and I really liked her.  The first office I contacted didn't offer consultations and said I wouldn't meet Mary's primary care doctor for at least 4 months after her birth.  They had other policies I did not love but this new clinic was much better and answered all my questions to my satisfaction.  Later that night I went to the Relief Society Christmas Party with my ministering sister, Alissa.  It was super fun.  They had Chipotle cater and I brought some chocolate chip cookies for dessert.  Other desserts that were brought were these yummy brownies, chocolate peppermint cupcakes, and a cinnamon roll cake.   Friday, Kaylee tested positive for Covid and didn't come to work.  I had been working with her the most but I didn't feel any sickness.  Mike and We
