It's Hubby's weekend home. He works an on/off schedule, so every other weekend he either works Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and I don't see him at all because he is active duty and has to stay on base. Or he has it off. So this is his off weekend and he will be home soon. I miss him and I'm thankful we'll get to hang out. I'm also thankful my cat (Silt, the Big Man) is feeling better. Earlier this week he had thrown up a lot, and was acting like he wasn't feeling well at all. He's an old guy, and is very close to my husband. We lost my best friend cat in September, and while I know they can't be with us forever, I was worried that we were turning a corner with Big Man and we would go thru that heartache all over again, this time with the big pain on my husband's end. So I'm very thankful he is feeling better and acting like himself again, and currently on his haunches watching some birds thru the patio door
I tried on a regular bathing suit (don't want to waste money on maternity one which I realize I do actually need) and my 3 year old DS said "mommy you look great!"... What a charming little man (I of course looked scary trying to fit into a regular suit!)
Today I'm thankful it's friday! This weekend is the final "calm before the storm" so we're going to use the quiet weekend to *hopefully* find a shower dress for me and maybe a glider for the nursery. Next weekend is our baby shower (i know, so so early, what can ya do) and the following weekend we leave for the Bahamas + I'll be 28weeks that day. I feel like the 3rd trimester will be here soooo soon and it's making me really excited! It's all really happening :-) YAY
Forever thankful for my husband. I had a tough evening with acid reflux and puking yesterday so he put me to bed early and manned our daughter. It was the first full night of sleep I have gotten in about 5 days. It was glorious.
I'm so thankful I passed my 3 hour test with flying colors! I didn't even have to do the last blood draw! I understand having GD wouldn't be the end of the world, but it is worrisome and stressful and I feel for all the mamas out there who do have to deal with it.
And I'm thankful that I'm starting the weekend on a positive note and it's the first day of Spring!
Grateful for a healthy check up today at 29 weeks! Also that I knew not to have breakfast and thus was able to remind my new doctor he needed to do my glucose test, and have it done. He was great today, and spent a lot of time talking to me about my hospital choice. Am a FTM in a foreign country so I am always grateful when people make the extra effort to put me at ease like Dr did today. Happy Friday!
I am thankful it's Friday I just have to get through my shift this evening. I plan on doing a lot of cleaning tomorrow and maybe a trip to target because I need some picture frames for some things I ordered off Etsy. And I'm thankful for such a wonderful husband, he ran to the grocery store for me the other night so I could make puppy chow (or muddie buddies) because I NEDDED it lol. Happy Friday everyone!
AHHH how could I have forgotten this?! What I am really thankful for is that my father (who was diagnosed with leukemia three weeks before I moved to Germany and had a bone marrow transplant in October - I've written about this on cord blood threads) was cleared by his doctors yesterday to come to Germany to meet our baby in June!!!!!!!
(Actually I know why I forgot this... I sob with happiness every time I think about it, which is awkward in times like this, when I am on the street waiting for DH, lol)
LO will be born pretty close to the one year anniversary of Dad's diagnosis so we are hoping its a clear sign of a new beginning :-) :-) :-)
