Morning!! & TGIF

Good morning ladies! Thank Goodness It's Friday!! I thought it would be fun if we all wrote one thing we were thankful for this week/weekend.

Our little girl is passed out in my lap, so I have a bit to entertain myself online, while D gets a shower in (he had a swat team call out last night and served two warrants, so he's a little stanky.) We're planning on hitting up the sears memorial sale this weekend, and seriously look into buying a new fridge and/or microwave.

TGIF:
I am thankful for the way our house is facing. We get sun, but not directly in our house, and the trees from our neighbors yard and behind our fence keep a nice shady portion in the yard no matter the time of day. It makes for an enjoyable backyard -- now if only the dogs hadn't destroyed our grass, and turned our yard into dirt!

My overly happy baby girl!

Re: Morning!! & TGIF

  • Morning. Major TGIF over here!!!!!!!

    I am thankful that today at my growth u/s everything looked really good, and she is definitely a girl. I just had to ask after I kept hearing at the shower how so many ultrasounds are wrong (seriously it was like so many family and friends didn't 'buy' that it was a girl LOL). I have had all of mine done at the hospital's imaging center and my technician actually chuckled and said it is very rare they are wrong when they declare a sex, & most mistakes come out of the Dr's office.

     

  • Hi girlies!

    I am thankful for such amazing friends and family.  I feel very lucky to have such a good support system and to feel so loved.

    TGIF is right.  It is supposed to be nice this weekend so I'm excited!

  • Can I say that I am thankful for everything? Seriously, there is so much that I am thankful for at this moment; to have gotten a job so quickly after graduation, for my health, for my amazing husband who is so helpful and loving, for all of my family and friends that support me, for our home with room for this precious child that is on it's way....I could keep going. I'm in love with life right now and everything in it and I thank God for it every day.

  • I'm thankful to have found an awesome daycare this week that has a spot in October.  I'm also thankful I found a chiropracter that is certified in the Webster Technique and has a 92% success rate at getting babies to turn head down. - I saw her yesterday, and am optimistic.

  • TGIF!!  I am so ready to get the hell out of work and enjoy the gorgeous weather.

    Today I am thankful for my DH because last night he put the air conditioner in the bedroom so I could cool down and sleep comfortably after 5 hours of cleaning the house while it was 80+-degrees inside.  Also for getting me another slice of pizza because my feet hurt to bad to stand last night after all the cleaning and nice relaxing shower.  Of course, there are many more reasons why I am thankful for him but those 2 almost made me cry last night.

  • Mine is lame and sappy, but I'm thankful for the one perfect little embryo that is hopefully snuggling in and making a home for the next 9 months.  I'm also thankful for the 3 snowbabies that the clinic just called and told me we have!!!

  • Thanks ladies!  Shelley, it made me teary that it made you teary.  I'm so hormonal right now.  I'm waivering on this ledge of staying positive and just saying that I'm pregnant and that I'm joining you ladies, and remaining level-headed and knowing that nothing is positive yet and I can still not get pregnant.

  • I am so thankful for a three day weekend. My patience is wearing thing, the most of any year I've taught, and I need an extra day off. I'm miserable at school by the end of the day and some kids act like jerks right now. They make fun of one of my students with autism who is petrified of thunderstorms and has obviously had a difficult few weeks. They are in 9th grade and just are mean. Then I go to the kids I tutor who by the time I get to them I'm wiped out. So apparently I turned this happy post into a vent session. Long story short- hooray for three day weekends!!!

    Ditto what Shelley said!  I'm waiting for your vlog from yesterday to load so I can watch!

    I'm thankful for so many things.  But I'll narrow it down today to my awsome DH who is so helpful around the house.  He cooks, he cleans, he handles the bills, he grocery shops, he does so many things to help while we are living with my parents.  I really appreciate that I have a husband that is not afraid of a little housework and can help me out with anything.

  • I'm grateful for Drew, just because. He's awesome. I wasn't feeling well the other day so he made chicken soup from scratch. He does so much more for me than he realizes. I'm grateful for our friends and family. I'm grateful that good things keep happening to people I care about :-)

    I'm so excited for you, Tania. This is going to be the start of something amazing, I'm sure!

    I think I'd would be teetering back and forth if I were in your position too. So excited, yet still hesitant. But just so you know, I'm considering you PUPO!
