Ten Things I'm Thankful For

By -
I can't believe that Thanksgiving is already here! It seems like only a few weeks have  passed since I had Lincoln (HE'S ALMOST 1. SUPER WEIRD) So the fact that Thanksgiving is almost here is blowing my mind!

Lets start off with a song for you to listen to while reading this post. :)


Lets get started!

1) I'm thankful for chocolate! Its what I've been viciously craving all week (R.I.P. to that half gallon of Rocky Road ice cream I downed in a little over two days...)
2) Like I said last year, blankets! My mom-in-laws house has been freezing over the past two weeks due to some minor excavation work done on the foundation so I'm grateful I had something to keep my toesies warm!
3) Food! Since I can finally eat again, I'm thankful for yummy food!
4) Snow! If you remember from the last season, my favorite part of the Christmas season is the snow! We've only had two or three snow storms thus far but I'm looking forward to have blankets of white covering everything :)
5) Scarves! I forgot how cold the back of your neck gets when you have short hair so I'm glad I still have my scarf from last year out and usable!
6) Unborn baby kicks! I was pushing on my tummy last night and I felt my first definite kick! This baby doesn't like to be messed with and I'm so glad I got to feel it move just before falling asleep!
7) Naps! Not only am I grateful for my son's naps but I love a good nap for myself!
8) My family! They always have my back and they can always make me smile! Love you, guys!
9) My kids! Even though one of them is only the size of a lemon, they both give me so much joy! I'm so blessed to have them!
10) My wonderful husband! He works so hard to make sure we have everything we need, he does well in school and he's perfect for me! We balance out each others bad qualities and help make each other better. I couldn't ask for a better eternal companion! Love ya, babe!

Well, there's my thankfulness list!

Lincoln was jealous that I was writing on the computer so he tried typing on his own. I'll translate down below it. :)

He said he's thankful for pacifiers and mommy and daddy's hugs because both of those make him feel better when he's sad ;)

Anyways, thanks for reading! If I can find my camera charger, I'll take some pictures of our Thanksgiving festivities tomorrow and make a post about it!

P.S. Happy 22nd birthday to my big sister Madison!

Something Terrible Happened

By -
I'm not sure exactly how to start this post, but I know it needs to be written. I don't want to forget this experience even though it feels so painful. Last week, I was a little over 4 weeks along and my prenatal vitamins came in the mail. I was diligently making a pregnancy test chart to compare the darkness of the test lines from the day before. I was feeling so much better than I did before our pregnancy loss last year (the second line was visible for a day and then the line disappeared and my cycle started soon after) since the test line was clearly visible, even from an arms length away. The day after I started my vitamins, I noticed that my nausea had basically gone away, something I was thrilled about since I hate feeling sick like that. My skin started breaking out worse than it had all week and I chalked it up to pregnancy hormones. We had my in-laws over for Mother's Day and just before we started cooking up S'mores, I felt a wave of depression hit me. I ...

Three More Weeks

By -
     So Josh and I finally saved enough to make one of our dreams come true... We are buying a house!       We looked at a grand total of three properties. The first one we looked at we loved, but we found out the day after we looked at it that there is a mold problem that has been going on for the past ten years. We immediately got as far away as possible, and started looking at the properties our realtor sent us through email. We found two more townhomes that looked interesting, so she scheduled the showings.      We looked at them both on October 11th. The first one was an odd layout, it had two bedrooms with a bathroom attached to each one individually (it seemed to be suited better for two college roomies as opposed to a growing family, like us) but we wanted to keep our minds open, just in case the second one of the day was not great either.      The moment we pulled up to the house, I knew it was gonna be really wel...

We Got The Keys!

        We got the keys on Tuesday! It feels so weird to hold the key to our house  in my hands. Its surreal, and I still haven't gotten used to it!      The boys and I went over to collect the keys and garage door openers and it felt so good walking in. I can't believe that its only one more day until we are in our own house! It will be just wonderful!      If I remember, I will take pictures of moving in and I'll make a post! Thanks for reading!
