Gratitude, August 17th

Good morning ladies!

Today I'm grateful for lazy Sundays, snuggly fur kids and the chance to be a Mom. It still feels kind of surreal!

Also, potato salad, which I seem to be eating like it's my job, and afternoon naps.

Re: Gratitude, August 17th

  • I'm grateful for my wonderful mother who celebrates her birthday today and I'm grateful to be headed home after a wonderful vacation with my family and in laws and I'm super grateful for my toddler who has travelled exceptionally well on this 10 day adventure away from home. So much to be thankful for!

  • @AnnaTTCat32‌ I'm so glad you like it! It's putting a smile on my face for sure. Yesterday's made me crave Taco Bell...

    I second ginger tea! @LRL131‌ - a well behaved toddler on a 10 day trip is definitely cause for celebration :-)
  • Today I'm grateful to wake up with no bleeding! I woke up bleeding yesterday and spent the day in the ER. Everything looked fine and they sent me home to relax. Waking up normal had been a big relief.

    I'm now cuddling on my couch with my almost 3 year old son, who just told me I was his "favorite favorite".

    I can see my handsome husband on the patio working on things for school tomorrow. (He's a high school physicist teacher and students come tomorrow).

    Life is calm and happy.
  • Thankful that it's stopped raining here (was raining all morning) and for yummy scrambled eggs for breakfast!

  • I'm thankful for Bengal Spice tea, and my crockpot, so I don't actually have to cook but still providing my DH with a delicious homemade meal.

  • I really love this as a daily thread. I grateful for this baby, my DS, and DH. Also for a good weekend with DH's family. And I am also grateful for GIFs.

  • I'm grateful for my snuggle puppy, my amazing son who spontaneously ran up, hugged me and said "I love you momma," pastina soup, and soft, fresh sheets to cuddle up in.
  • I'm thankful for my husband, who knew exactly what to say to this surprise. For the fact that my anxiety has been almost nonexistent this week and that fatigue is my only symptom so far.

    Anxiety is so frustrating. A gratitude journal was actually a therapist's suggestion to me years ago. Picking a few positive things to focus on each day totally puts things in perspective, at least for me. I'm glad you're having a good week!
  • I am thankful for this little babe, my husband who has taken over the housework this month entirely (usually it's a joint effort), beautiful weather (today, anyway) and lazy Sundays! not looking forward to another work week .... Although I am thankful for having a full time permanent job that I enjoy (most days) .... looking forward to maternity leave though! I am secretly hoping that one of my friends tells me they're pregnant too so we can have the year off together with our babies.
  • I'm thankful for this babe, my DD, and an amazing close family. I'm also thankful for pools that make 105*+ tolerable.

  • I am thankful for ice packs. Especially when I have a terrible toothache.

    I am thankful for my darling little bear who just busted some moves when a Disney song came :)

  • Today I'm thankful for my family. We have 2 birthday parties today. I'm thankful that my husband cleaned the living room and kitchen yesterday. And of course...I'm thankful to be pregnant.

    This! Someone recently suggested crockpot cooking during the first trimester to me, and it has helped SO much!

  • I'm thankful that I was able to stomach half a cheeseburger for lunch instead of the usual saltine crackers. I'm also thankful for the wonderful nursery workers at our church.

  • I LOVE my crockpot. This is where I've gotten most of my fav recipes: https://crockingirls.com/recipes/

  • I'm thankful for my parents who came to visit for the weekend while my husband was out of town. And to my mom for not asking me if I am pregnant because I am sure she suspects but is waiting for me to tell her. I am thankful for my dogs even though they have woken up early for the last two mornings. Also thankful for excellent meals that I do not have to cook!
  • Thankful for my awesome husband who is cooking dinner right now! And all the extra help he is being while I pass out on the couch. For my fur babies who keep me company when I feel this awful. And that my job is a desk job so I can pound gingerale and crackers all day!!!

    I love their blog as well as Who Needs a Cape. I do lots of freezer meals and crockpot meals, as well as components of meals (browned ground beef, ground turkey, rice, etc) so I can put various meals together quickly. Today I am thankful for a husband who doesn't mind a less than sparkling house. I've had epic naps two days in a row while dd was sleeping.

    Also very thankful for MH who has been, and continues to be, both awesome and patient with me. 

    Very thankful and blessed that I'm pregnant! Sometimes amidst the nausea and exhaustion, I have to remind myself that during our TTC journey I swore I would take on all the symptoms, if only it meant I could be KU. And now I am KU :)
