glasses

Today I realized that I am grateful for my glasses. Yes, even though they are broken and pieced together with tape, I am glad to have them. I think they are the key to the less seveire headaches.
I still have a headache, but nowhere nears as painful.
I'm also glad for Robert, again. For getting me all asiago bagels when I know He likes cinnamon sugar.

This morning.

I am grateful that so far so good on the migraine status. I can deal with morning sickness, but I cannot handle both at the same time.
I am grateful for Robert and the fact that He spoils me. We went to the grocery store last night and He let me pick out whatever sounded good. This morning I am so so so happy for that. If it weren't for the sour patch kids and the salt and vinegar chips I'd be out for the count. For some reason the salt and the sour are keeping me ok for the moment. Who knew?

Sorry

I know it's been a while, but I've been sick and busy.
I am grateful for lillian sneezing the bead out of her nose before we got to the hospital. I am also grateful that we were able to get the second one out ourselves.
I am so so grateful for a husband that will run to golden coral just for their crab salad and then to walmart just for ginger ale. I'm grateful that He is willing to do the dishes after a long day at work and that He doesn't say anything when the house is a mess.
I'm also grateful that Robert has gotten used to throw up.

Cooking

I am so excited to tell you that I cooked my first roast. It was so good! We ate more than half of it. (it was a small two pounder.)
So I am thankful that it turned out, because I've been craving red meat. I always do and I blame it on my iron deficiency.
I am also thankful that Matthew is old enough to fetch me diapers and wipes. He is such a good little helper!

Hmm

Does anyone even read these?
I'm thankful for ice cream and bagels. YUM!

Wow!

I am so sore from laying six pallets of sod yesterday! I am so grateful for the blessing of tylenol this morning. I'm just grateful that I am able to take something, anything, during pregnancy.

Man I'm sore.

Today I am so thankful for TIna. Holy cow that woman has energy! We were about half way done with laying sod in our yard and it had been three hours. She came over with her wheel barrow and pushed us to get the rest of it done in another two hours. If she hadn't come along we wouldn't have finished, because we were losing steam... fast!
There were some bad points about tonight, but this is not the blog to do that. Even though I could scream about it, I won't.

Big Sister

I am so happy that I called my big sister yesterday. It was nice just to be able to talk and try to plan a few things for Disneyland. She was willing to talk to me and we talked for about an hour. It put me in a good mood for the rest of the day.
Thanks Jenny.

Sisters

I am thankful for visiting teaching, again.
I walked the kids to my companions house and we went to our second appointment for this month. I gave the lesson again. I am thankful for visiting teaching because, I don't know, I can't pin point it. It just feels good to be doing it.

I am thankful for my fat pants, because there is no way I'd be clothed today without them!

And I am thankful for Otter Pops. I love how they cool me down. mmm.

Today I am thankful for chairs. What a wonderful invention! When I'm tired I can just sit myself down in a big comfy yellow chair. I just wish I had a book to read while sitting in this wonderful chair.

Two in one.

Sorry, I forgot to write yesterday.
I am thankful for church. I love sunday mornings, don't you? Espesially when it's not nine o'clock church block.
I am also greatful for unexpected family visits. It was such a good visit last night. I think that living thirty minutes away makes the times we do see my family so much better.
I'm keeping this one short because my kids are waking up.

Flat

This morning I am so thankful that we have just a little extra money in our account. Robert woke me up this morning to a flat tire. I am also grateful that it happened in the driveway and not on the freeway.
I just want to find out just exactly how our cars know about this little money we have? They know about it and they want it. Cars can be so greedy!
Now we just need to trade Robert's in, kill it, or fix it. ugh.

The kids.

Today I am so thankful that my children can play together. They have gotten to the age where they want time by themselves and I am more than willing to give it to them.
I am really happy for this today, because Matthew has given me whatever he had earlier this week. It is nice that the kids are letting me be sick while playing nicely together. I shouldn't say "nicely" I should say "playing together like siblings do". They are good kids and I think I take that for granted a lot.

This is getting difficult.

This is a hard entry. I should tell you that yesterday was full of high temperatures and working in the yard. I guess I should be grateful for children's Tylenol and warm baths. Poor little Matthew was so sick yesterday that Lillian was holding his hand for the entirety of Finding Nemo and He didn't care.
I am also grateful that Man invented the shovel. Digging in the yard sucks, but how much more crappier would it have been without tools? I don't even want to think of it.

Cookies.

Today I am so thankful for my neighbors. I was so surprised when one of the neighbors came over with her kids and a plate of cookies. She isn't even in my ward, but she took the time to get to know me. (So unusual for Utah). Matthew was so excited to play with someone besides His sister.
Her and I talked for over an hour! I am an introvert and don't usual like unexpected company, but I was so thrilled that She came over. It's strange how you can just connect with someone you've never talked to before.
Her cookies weren't too shabby either. Chocolate is always a hit in my home.
Later in the day I had another neighbor come and bring another plate of chocolate cookies. Can I tell you that I love this area!? We didn't talk long, but I always like Her company. We always sit together in church, it might not seem like a big deal, but I've never had anyone sit with me. Ever. Unless they were family of course.
Well, I guess I can also say that I am grateful for all the yummy cookies in my house, even if I need to loose a few pounds. :)
