Jessica&Brett · April 2011

I'm thankful for my sweet little boy that can be up screaming for two hours in the middle of the night, but still wakes up with a huge smile on his face when he sees me!

I'm thankful that my Gizzie kittie let Finley give him a hug today without scratching his eyes out

I'm thankful that I am able to be a SAHM mom, even though it's sometimes so stressful.

I'm thankful for a great H that has taken time off work this week to help with DS while I'm been sick.

KYMelissa06 · April 2011

I'm thankful for sunshine especially when it's my day off.

I'm thankful for my adorable little boy who is full of so much energy and brings me happiness even when I'm feeling my worst.

I'm thankful that I have a good job that I love. Sure it comes with difficult situations, but I still love that I have the opportunity to help people.

I'm thankful for this board where I can vent my frustrations, talk about my problems and share in my joys with so many people who can understand and relate to the things that we all go through.

I'm thankful that Thomas the Train is coming to Cintas Center today and that it's my day off which means I actually get to take Carter and share in his excitement.

I'm thankful that even though I hate my house I still have a home to live in when so many others are struggling to make ends meet.

I'm thankful for all of my friends and family who have volunteered their time to watch my child, wanting nothing in return, when we unexpectedly lost Brian's grandma recently.

hannah&ben · April 2011

I am thankful for my 3 beautiful, living, thriving children. They're truly the best thing I've ever done.

I am thankful for my safe, comfortable home.

I am thankful for Ben. He's pretty much the best person I've ever met. And, lucky for me, he's also my husband.

I am thankful for my husband's job. We are beyond blessed to have a steady, secure source of income that provides for all of our needs and a good amount of our wants as well.

I am also thankful for Nutella. And Kettle One.

allobosc · April 2011

I'm so thankful I let my other mommy friends talk me into taking 2 more weeks off to stay home with Cam. I am also thankful that I have such a good little baby boy!

Lauren&Joe · April 2011

I am thankful to be working at home today with all the windows open.

curlypie1 · April 2011

I'm thankful that my husband finally found a JOB!

I'm thankful that my husband got to spend almost four years at home with our kids. He said he'll never forget this time in his life. Most men don't get to experience the good and tough moments of being with their kids all day, almost every day.

I'm thankful that I work for a pretty awesome place and boss that will allow my role and hours to change to accomodate my wish to be with my children more.

I'm thankful for elastic waisted pants for three year olds, so when they want to change outfits 10 times a day (no joke) they can do it themselves.

I'm thankful for Gerber Puffs and their magical ability to occupy an almost 8 month old through entire meal.

I'm thankful for spring. There is nothing like walking out the door in the morning into the sunshine and hear the songs of birds.

Wow, that is really, so nice.

mag2point0 · April 2011

I'm thankful for my cute little girl and that we have her in a child care situation I'm truly happy with.

I'm thankful that DH washes bottles and pump parts every night so that I never have to think about that.

And I'm thankful that I get to work from home. Days like this I get to listen to the birds chirping instead of the planes flying overhead like my office in Chicago.

megntom07 · April 2011

MandiNewMommy · April 2011

I am thankful for sunshine and warm weather!

I am thankful for my loving family and friends. My life has been a rough one the past few years and I am so lucky to have the love of some AWESOME people. I would not have been able to do it without them.

This lil bean in my belly. It is not how I planned my life to be but I am already so much in love with this lil one and it has brought love and life back to me.

My job...I am not always a fan and whine about it 90% of the time, but I am glad that I have a job and can go to work everyday.

kristinleigh · April 2011

I am thankful that Jackson took a 2 hour nap (his longest ever!) this morning and woke up happy and smiling (instead of his usual screamfest).

I am thankful for the absolutely glorious weather today - it is sweet medicine for my tattered soul

I am thankful for walks and swings and throwing all the windows open and letting the sunshine and breeze run through the house.

I am thankful for Diet Sunkist Sparkling Lemonade, and White Merlot, and dark chocolate, thank heavens for dark chocolate.

I'm thankful for my Mom for coming over to help me with kids yesterday while I was recovering from food poisoning and my husband was out of town.

I'm thankful to some of our awesome friends who came over on Sunday to help erect a playset for our kids in the backyard. We have played on it everyday since then and Adah is so happy with it.

I'm thankful for spring and sunshine and not having to worry about coats and boots anymore.

I'm thankful for having so many awesome friends, especially this week for miss JenRose who made Arlo's 1st birthday invitation.

I'm thankful everyday for getting to stay home with my two babies, even when it's hard it's still my favorite job in the world.

I am so thankful to be pregnant again. I feel very blessed and hopeful for this pregnancy.

I am also thankful for my husband. He is my rock through every journey.

And also, the weather. Come on summer!!

I am thankful that DH was able to delay his paternity leave and take it the next two weeks so he can be home with M and make my return to work much less stressful.

I'm thankful that Wolfgang let me cuddle & pet him for a couple of minutes this morning before resuming his barracuda biting attacks. I swear, baby mammals of all kinds must know they need to act cute every so often to prevent their mommies from going completely crazy.

you just made me belly laugh...but its so true!

Yes

If it wasn't for the fact that you can legally leave puppies home alone, they would be harder to deal with than kids.

buckeyethor · April 2011

God bless Starburst jelly beans, especially the package with only pink and red.

Thankful for the weather and getting out of the house today!

So happy for spring and my flowers and sunshine!

Thankful for my stinky ol' hubs that lets me get out way more often than he does on weekends.

Ttimes3 · April 2011

My honest to goodness list would be far too long and obnoxious. That said, here are a few of the more random things that I am thankful for, today:

rice cereal
sunshine
ceiling fans
volumizing tonic
Flip video
GladWare food storage containers
shout wipes
ice packs
Motrin
blue cheese
half-days
H.B. Reese Candy Co.
Dasani water
stories that make me chuckle
nursing tanks

RFKD82909 · April 2011

I am thankful for:

sunshine, my little one kicking up a storm, cookies, my husbands support during my job transition, my parents and in-laws, my friends at my current job, coffee, naps and the day off tomorrow.

Hello, pregnancy hormones, which made me cry at every one of these posts

I am thankful for my awesome husband who is my constant rock and has been so helpful during this pregnancy.

I am thankful to have a three year old who still loves to cuddle, and is so loving towards me and the baby belly.

I am thankful for said three year old who has recently decided to burst into song all the time and is constantly surprising us by new songs that he knows. It took him a long time but we are loving it. He asks to play "Heartless" by Kris Allen over and over and he thoroughly enjoys making us smile while he sings.

I am thankful for this precious baby inside of me and that it is still safely growing away with a beautiful little beating heart.

I am extremely thankful to have our home, when last year at this time I had no idea where or how we would even have one.

I am thankful for this wonderful supportive environment, where we can always come when we need an ear, need a laugh, need to vent... it is pretty crazy that we have found this little place on the internet that has turned into so much more for so many of us.

Happy Thursday

Miranda, you are so sweet. This last part is so, so true. I don't know what I would do without the friends, companionship, laughs and advice of the ladies on this board.
