Re: Thankful Thursday
I'm thankful for Max's good two-year appointment this week. It was so nice to have one where we didn't talk about some kind of delay, and he was healthy, and he was his cute charming self for her to boot.
Also thankful for the friends I've made from this board!
For being home!
For the way my Great Grandma practically jumped out of her chair to greet us when we got to my Grandmas house.
I was just reading in the airplane magazine that the current CEO of Crate and Barrel started out on the retail floor and she just moved through the ranks all the way up to CEO. So - you never know where your little retail, teenager job might take you!
As someone said before, I'm thankful I do not live in Japan, Libya, Egypt, Israel or (fill-in-the-name-of-troubled-country-here). So much to take for granted it's staggering.
On a simple note, I am glad our ear infection was caught at our scheduled Dr Appt. Also thankful to have all the Grandparents nearby, and that they practically fight over who gets to watch him on his "24 hour fever recovery" day...phew!
I am thankful Walkers is doing more and more everyday; verbally and in motorskills.
I am thankful D could take today off at the last minute to take Bailey (our dog) to the vet. I am waiting now to hear what they said (we found a large round mass in her tummy last night).
Lots of hugs!! I'm thankful you had people there to help you, too.
I must have missed an announcement. Congratulations!!
I'm thankful that I was sent home on Tuesday, after 90 mins of monitoring. My BP was a little high, but I was not having contractions and baby is doing very well. I'm thankful the spotting seems to have stopped again. And I'm also really glad that DH seems to be on board with my sudden and urgent need to tie up all baby/house loose ends that we can for now, even though we technically have nearly 2 months left. I just want to get to-do items off of our list!

This. I need to be more thankful and less "why is this minor insignifican thing" happening.
I'm feeling thankful for a lot today!
1 - For good health. A gal TJ has worked with for the past 8 years just got married in January. Her H had a physical exam for a job and they found he has stage 5 lymphoma.
They have him on some really agressive treatment, and are hopeful, but it so very serious and scary. 
It makes me so thankful that we are all healthy right now.
2 - For my cute, cuddly, and sometimes over dramatic, baby. Before having her I knew I'd love her a lot but I didn't fully understand that mommy love I'd develop. It still amazes me just HOW much I love her.
3 - That I didn't drop M last night. We sit on our 5ftx5ft ottoman with her often, and I was scooting off to stand up and switching the arm she was in. She wiggled at just the wrong time and nearly fell out of my arms. It scared the hell out of me, but she was none the wiser.
4 - For wine after # 3 happened.
I was pretty shaken up last night, so after she was a sleep I had a big glass of wine.
5 - For all of you!!! Everyone here is so helpful and supportive, I love being a part of this awesome community!!

It's a GIRL! Lydia Marie!
I'm thankful for yesterday. It was a beautiful day, my students were being awesome, my daughter was being adorable, and I had a night out with friends.
My friends from college are here there and everywhere. I have a wonderful, amazing family who I spend a lot of time with and love me unconditionally.
But this year, both professionally and personally, I've made a lot of connections with new friends and have felt much more "in the groove". Feeling more like myself.
I worked Retail for 9 years, I LOVED it. It did wear on me at the end which is why I left but up until then I did enjoy it. I was good at my job and enjoyed the relationships I established with Customers and fellow managers.
I'm thankful I had the drive and support to lose 15lbs in 2 months. I never thought I could do it, and I did.
I am thankful the sun has made an appearance this week!
Today I am thankful for this board. I've been lurking more than anything due to lack of time to internet, yet I still feel a strong sense of community. Group hug! Or wait, how about group margaritas?!
I'm thankful for this trip. My mom was in the hospital all last weekend and I was worried she wouldn't be well enough, but she's doing great and we're hitting the beach.
I am thankful my DH is not making fun of me for my newest endeavor - 30 days of Paleo eating. I'm thankful that it is easier than I thought and I'm feeling full, even without grains or dairy.
And and and..congratulations Cupcake!!!
I am thankful for my friends and my family and how much they care about me.
I am thankful for my new job, I am so happy there already and it is such a nice change to be around people who treat eachother as adults and team members and not just an employee. Its not even been a week and I already feel like a part of something awesome. So happy!
I am Thankful that my parents are minding Coop tomorrow so we can have a day/night out for a friend's surprise 30th.
I am Thankful that DH agrees with me now in regards to where to buy a house & we are in serious land hunting mode right now!
Thankful as always for the amazing, happy little boy we have!
