February 2014 Moms

What are you thankful for today?

I did a whole lot of complaining this week to DH, friends and coworkers (basically whoever was in ear shot)! So I know I need a little reminder of things to be thankful for

-Getting to hear LO's heartbeat next week at my appointment

-DS finally got rid of his fever (that has been going on for 10 days)

-My inlaws are going out of town (yes, we are still living with them)

-DH and I will hopefully have a date night tonight :-)


 

 


 

Re: What are you thankful for today?

  • First, I am thankful for this thread for helping me to calm down from my teeny bit of spotting found this morning and realize I have much to be thankful for and probably nothing to worry about! Also- for Penny the dog who is an excellent guardian. And the fact that I finished and put away (!!!) all the laundry and won't have to think about it for a few days. And that we have an appointment today to meet our Dr.(s)! It's a big practice so really, who knows. And for the Bump, to distract me and make me laugh and calm down when I'm losing my shit over things.

  • I've been pretty whiney this entire pregnancy so I'm glad to be coming out of that funk at least for a little while :-).  Today has been a particularly good day so here's what I'm thankful for...

    1)  Cooler weather

    2)  Baby has been moving around a good bit the last few days.  Always reassuring.

    3)  DS started Kindergarten last week and is LOVING it.  I was a little nervous b/c we took a chance on a Charter school but so far, I am so impressed with the staff and the level of professionalism and communication with parents.  Also just found out this week that they were one of only 28 schools in the state named as a GA School of Excellence which is a BIG deal.  Very glad we took a chance here.

    4)  DD is just so stinkin smart.  I have to remind myself that she's not even 3 yet because she really is so advanced that I sometimes put her in the same category as her 5 year old brother! 

    5)  My job.  I was seriously considering quitting or going part time earlier this year because we live so far from the office and can't move and I was just tired of being tired and missing my kids.  My management totally came through and offered to let me telework almost exclusively and it has completely changed my work/life balance.  I am so much happier now and so grateful for this opportunity.

  • Today is my birthday, so I'm thankful that I made it through another year. I'm thankful for my incredible family, that this LO on the way has been happy and healthy so far, and for my fantastic job.

    I've cried three times this morning thinking about how lucky I am, my life isn't perfect but it is prety fucking fantastic.

    Happy Birthday!


     

     


     

  • Thankful for:

     - having a boss/job that allows me to take half the day to go meet with a genetic counselor and have my NT scan done today - without giving me grief about making up the time
     - so thankful it's Friday and I can sleep in tomorrow (until 8 at least!)
    - for my wonderful H who still loves me even though I'm cra-cra and hormonal nearly all the time right now :-)

  • I'm thankful for all the bump peeps who helped me this get through this crazy week of ups and downs.

    I'm also thankful for some amazing docs who are not giving up hope!!
  • 1. Hearing my lovebug's heartbeat today
    2. Last weekend DH and I went to The Cheesecake Factory just to get cheesecake. It was delicious and, under normal circumstances, I never would have been able even eat half of it, but because I'm pregnant and starving all the time, I ate the whole thing! And it was extra delicious because I was craving chocolate.

  • I am thankful for DD for making me laugh out load when I picked her up from Daycare today - she force hugged me and was licking my cheek - such a weirdo.

    I am thankful for my old DCP coming to babysit tonight so DH and I can go on a date.

    I am thankful for my new house - and everyone who helped make it a reality. I am still in awe of how awesome it is!

  • I'm thankful it's Friday! That I was able to leave work early to spend time with DH. That I feel at peace with my decision to stay at my current job until my baby is born because even though it's stressful, in the end it's what's best for my family. And I'm most thankful that I only have 2 more days until my next prenatal appointment and I get to hear my baby's heartbeat again.
  • I was able to go grocery shopping for the first time today without gagging.

    Now able to cook meals myself and don't get sick.

    Zulily and the two pairs of boots I bought myself for an after work week present.

    Our lo! My Dh, puppy, and kitty.
  • I am thankful that my blood work came back normal.

    I am thankful that the father of my child is by my side.

    I am thankful I am fortunate enough to have everything I need to be happy and successful in this dynamic stage of my life.
