Re: Thankful Thursday

  • I am thankful...

    That Ava Nichol is doing better. I feel so bad when my baby has to struggle to go and when she screams when getting her diaper changed.

    For my mom. Her vacationing in Mexico reminds me how much I lean on her for support. It is hard not talking to her and it has only been 2 days.

    That it is Thursday. I am done with this week. Now it is almost Friday woohoo!

  • I am thankful for...

    Thursday! It means this week is almost over then I only have one more week of work. I'm so ready to be on leave, especially with the scare the other night.

    A good nights sleep. Last night was the first night in a while that I slept all the way through.

    DH. He has been so good about helping me out lately. I'm having a hard time moving around like I used too, and he's been good about making me dinner and helping me off the couch when I get stuck. ;)

  • That I can see the light at the end of the tunnel with this newsletter (all so I can start a new one, yay!). This was my first time doing it and it was stressful.

    That my grandma is feeling better. She's 84 and fell down the stair two weeks ago. She's finally out of the walker but moving slow.

    DH is coming home from a business trip tonight. I miss him - and I desperately want ST!!

  • - For our 2nd u/s today!!  We're so excited to see our LO again!

    - For DH and how OK he was with just ordering pizza in for our anniversary yesterday since I was feeling like crap.

    - That DH and I decided to tell our parents this weekend about LO instead of next weekend!!  Cannot freakin' wait to tell them!!

  • Good luck @jennahack!!

    @sgautschi, it's so not fun getting stuck on the couch. J will get up and start walking away and turn around I'm still sitting in the same spot looking confused and he giggles and goes "oh yeah, let me get the tow truck". Or last night we were watching something on anacondas and one had swallowed a turtle and had a huge bump (like me) and after he got off the couch I give him my hand and he goes come on my anaconda. He's funny.
  • DH for making dinner the past couple of weeks every night during the week so that we aren't eating at 7pm.

    Gagging on toothpaste this morning, because it means I can finally stop worrying why I don't have any pg symptoms, lol

    DD for being such a smart and loving girl.

    DS for all the cuddles and kisses even when it's 2 am and I just want to sleep.

    My boss for keeping me around even though I don't think I've been on time for work but once this whole year. lol

  • Haha Bridget that sounds like something B would say. We had already given LO a new nickname of LSP (from Adventure Time) because she's always bulging out somewhere on my belly and making me look lumpy. Lol

  • Haha that's funny. I love how I am feeling so uncomfortable and he will say something to make me laugh just to make me feel better.
  • I am always thankful that my son is here and healthy. DH and I talk about it often :-) 

    I am also thankful that I was able to get a couple hours of sleep last night, run some errands this morning and that LO slept long enough to let me eat lunch!

  • Our new Gardner, he's been here twice so far and our lawn looks amazing.

    The housecleaner is starting tomorrow!! She will deep clean the casa every two weeks. I'm very thankful, I just can't keep up with it.

    DH, he is simply amazing with the babies. Very hands on.

    My BFF. I love her so much.

    Getting closer to fall! I saw my uggs while packing my maternity clothes away, I got wood.

  • Naps. I can't remember the last time I slept through the night and I've been working longer hours than my doctor released me for. I woke up this morning and just didn't feel well... I was shaky, nauseous, and so tired. Thankful that I had the day off today and I napped (with only 3 bathroom breaks!) for over 3 hours!

    That we are fortunate enough to have our new house and are able to put together a complete nursery for LO. I wanted that experience so badly and I cannot wait to see it all finished!

    My in laws. They have helped us with moving and painting and I cannot begin to thank them enough!

    Oh man... gagging on toothpaste was one of my first and longest symptoms. Brushing my teeth was torture until 23 weeks! lol Glad you are finally getting some physical confirmation! ;) When is your first appointment?

  • I am thankful for....

    My new job and my amazing, wonderful coworkers who have been so helpful and supportive of me.

    My new boss, who's response to my telling her I am pregnant was "OH YAY WE LOVE BABIES!"

    My best friend coming to visit this weekend, I can't wait to see her and her sweet little boy.  

    That I have insurance and don't have to cobra!

  • @wiggyslilsis I was scared out of my mind to tell her. The VP was there also, and she informed me that her first year of teaching at that school she was pregnant when she was hired and her baby was born in January so she totally understood my feelings. They are so nice and supportive. It amazes me!

  • Imma gonna need a house cleaner. I actually think H will be fine with it. Listen, if I'm working 50 hours a week and I'm the sole food source for the kid, H thinks he'll step up and clean the house, but Im dubious. A house leaner will save us a lot of fighting.

    Yeah. Unfortunately, I don't think hat argument will actually work :(

    I'm gone 12 hours a day for work and exhausted on the weekends. I need help. Who wants to come to my house and clean? :)
