Thankful Thursday

NovemberSno · October 2015

Ok ladies so Tuesday and Wednesday are our days to complain! And oh do we have reason! But, I thought it'd be nice to take 1 day just to give something we're thankful for. I'll go first...

I'm thankful for my dear husband who is so very patient with me. I seriously and annoyed asked him...why do you breathe so loud?... last night and he just kissed my cheek. Lol
Secondly I'm thankful that Taco Bell stays open so late!

I'm thankful that the world now has the technology it does so that we can have ultrasounds and see our babies before they're born. My aunt was dying to come with for an ultrasound because she never had one with any of her 3 kids, so crazy!

And also lavender oil. I don't think I would get any sleep without it.

grapesoda1111 · October 2015

Thanks for starting this. I honestly have been complaining way too much lately.
Thankful for my healthy baby that is still growing on the inside and not on the outside. Thankful for my mama cause she listens to all my complaints, and DH too of course! Thankful that he can provide for our family.
I had a dream my dog was a cat. I'm thankful my dog is not a cat. (DH And I are both allergic to cats)

I'm thankful to live in a neighborhood where we help each other and to have a flexible work schedule. Because of this, I can go to the firehouse with my DS for his first field trip and hen go to work while my neighbor watches him. Yet another neighbor will pick up my DD from school. It takes a village ladies. I hope you all have one!!

Soyyoyary · October 2015

I'm thankful for my 3 babies, love them to death.. DH who deals with me, caters me, loves me.. Thankful for my job, my friends and family.. Especially a new day!!

BowWowBowie · October 2015

I'm so thankful for my mother who has been deep cleaning our home while I'm on bed rest and found two dressers for us, for my DH because he's been handling the financial burdens all on his own, for my DD because she is always making me laugh, filling my heart with love (and driving me a little crazy), for my LO because despite the odds stacked against him, he is growing and thriving, and lastly for my job, I always used to complain about my checks being on a two week delay, but getting this last one until I return to work saved us this month and we're able to get more groceries than just a couple essentials. My heart is overflowing with love, I am a blessed woman.

chiac25 · October 2015

I'm thankful for my family and to God for blessing us with a Lil girl so now our family is complete. I'm thankful for my DS who keeps me excited and in anticipation for DD even when I don't feel the best. I'm thankful for DH who has been nothing but supportive and in tune to all my needs.

Falchas · October 2015

Oh boy, do I need this today! Our city was hit hard by all the rain on the east coast last weekend. We've had no power and no running water since Sunday (Hi Bump! Out internet/power came back last night, I missed you, but every time I seems to take a break someone I really like gets banned, hope to see all my favs intact!) Anyhow, we made out so much better than many in our community. I am so thankful that my family is safe, that my home is safe, that I had a good 36 week appointment and that I am celebrating my 9th anniversary to my wonderful SO today. A lot of people around me are dealing with much worse than pregnancy heartburn and I need to be reminded of that. Looking forward to seeing how other Nov15 people are doing, hope everyone is well and my t&p's out to other Southeast moms who might be cleaning up from the storm!

BowWowBowie · October 2015

@Falchas so glad you now have internet and power and that your home and family are safe! Happy anniversary!!!!!

Escheffler34 · October 2015

@Falchas so glad that you have internet again, and that you and your family are safe. We were also hit hard by the rain, and I am so thankful for amazing neighbors and the way that the community came together and helped each other. I am also thankful for my husband who is away helping flood victims. I am thankful that our LO is still growing inside of me, and that my parents are coming to visit soon. I am so blessed!!

MercyC1130 · October 2015

This is nice today. I'm so incredibly thankful for my man for..everything. Mostly for dealing with my crazy ass and my crazy ass family and moving all the way across the country to be here with me. For working like a beast lately and just being incredible. He is a fountain of patience.
Thankful my baby is healthy and we've had no real issues so far

I'm thankful for nice smelling soaps and quiet baths when everyone else is in bed.

bellie1223 · October 2015

Super thankful for my husband and how patient he's been even though I'm sure he doesn't understand what I'm feeling, how busy he's been with work so I don't have to worry about finances and a mostly easy pregnancy (have to remind myself of this all the time, because it's also been incredibly emotionally hard on me at times).

elbou · October 2015

Thank you for starting this. I really needed it after a rough evening last night, and a rough morning so far today. I'm thankful for my husband, who unexpectedly took my "side" after some drama with his aunt last night. (I said something to her that came out wrong, and she got really upset. I was worried he might be upset with me for pissing her off, especially since she is his favourite aunt. Instead, he was really sweet about it, and hugged me and told me it was alright and everything would be fine while I got upset and bawled my eyes out.)

He is also finally getting excited about this baby and showing it more too, which is such a wonderful feeling!

crysgx · October 2015

I'm thankful for my amazing and supportive family, there was so much love and good vibes this past Saturday at our baby shower. Also for all the help I've received and especially thankful this morning for my coworker who brought breakfast! I was extremely hungry and didn't know if I'd make it to lunch! Have a great Thursday ladies!

This!

And thankful for my cuddly puppy and for my husband who takes great care of me and lets me get away with sleeping all the time.

rachswi · October 2015

I'm so thankful for my SIL who let me be her +1 to a kids consignment sale. I was able to get both a bunch of little odds and ends for our LO and I was able to get Christmas shopping done for all our nieces and nephews! Huge win considering that meant I didn't have to spend more than $10/kid and got some pretty decent gifts!!
Also super thankful for DH because I was literally on my feet lugging things around longer last night than I have all pregnancy and my back was soooooo sore this morning. He got breakfast ready and just let me rest. He's been so amazing and supportive. I love him so much!!

livvielove15 · October 2015

Ok I'm thankful McDonalds breakfast is served 24/7 now cause sometimes all I need is a chicken biscuit at noon...

I am also thankful for a very supportive family. Do you ever just sit & observe the people around you & wonder how you got so lucky? Without them I'm not sure how I'd be getting by.

BlondeMomma92 · October 2015

i'm extremely thankful for the constant support and love from my family and friends. I know my situation has been hard on my parents (they live in chicago, while i'm in alabama). I am so thankful for all the trips down here they've planned for in the next month or so. I am also thankful, that I have had a fairly easy pregnancy and so far everything is has been great with my LO. (no health concerns) I feel so blessed; that I've had such a strong support system, and that the people in my life have genuinely been here for me. I am also so thankful that everyone is already so in love with my Little princess and she isn't even here yet! Knowing that this kind of love and support will be what my child is being brought up in just makes my life feel even more fulfilled.

rachswi · October 2015

Adding a thankful!

I finished my online professional development course for teaching (it was 30 credit hours and quite the process). Because I'm not intending to teach full time until LO is in school, this course was the last thing I needed to be able to fulfill professional development hours so that I can renew my teaching certificate in 2018. It is SUCH a relief to not have to worry about getting professional development hours in while caring for a small child. I'm so glad I was able to get it done.

mamadaisy11 · October 2015

I am thankful for the health and well being of my beautiful baby boy. Knowing that all day and night he is cozy, being fed, and growing like a weed, all in the comforts and safety of mama's womb. The miracle of life is a beautiful thing! I feel so incredibly thankful that my body can carry a healthy pregnancy 36 weeks and counting

I know there are so many women out there who would LOVE to feel the "pains" of pregnancy and delivery, but will never be able to because of reasons that are out of their control. So when I get too involved with the frustrating heartburn, back pain, lack of sleep, stretch marks, etc I just have to think of all the times I get to feel a little (or big!) kick or being able to hear his little heart beating, the overwhelming joy I feel anticipating his arrival, I cant help but smile with gratitude and be so thankful that I get to experience something so beautiful and full of love first hand.

knolliepollie · October 2015

I'm thankful for my amazing DH. He takes me on after dinner dessert runs, gives me massages and puts up with my short temper. I'm also thankful for my parents. They have been so supportive and excited through my entire pregnancy. Lastly, I'm thankful to have a healthy baby

CarrieOct15 · October 2015

My coworkers threw me a surprise baby shower today, and I am SO thankful & touched. There was cake & cookies, and I received a basket full of adorable baby clothes! I almost cried. Dang hormones. Lol

dmiller1213 · October 2015

I'm thankful for my OB. He's been my doctor for about 8 years now, so I've gotten to know him and trust him. Tuesday, we had our growth scan and appointment after which didn't go as planned. He had a "game plan" for me before I even came into the room. 2 non stress tests a week and another growth scan in 2 weeks. I didn't take the news very well. I'm a worrier, I'm emotional, and this is the first time he didn't say "ok great, everything's good see you in 2 weeks," so it got to me a little. My husband could not leave work early to come with me to the appointment, so I was alone. My doctor sat in the room with me while I did the NST and talked to me about whatever I wanted to talk about to keep my mind off of things.

I know it's his job to oversee the health of me and my baby, but I really feel like I hit the jackpot with him. He didn't have to sit and talk to me, he chose to. He gave me a big hug goodbye and assured me that the NST was a good thing and this was the absolute best thing to do in the situation. Very thankful for that man.

And I'm also thankful for Thursday night football. When football is on, we don't cook, we order pizza.

MoRay05 · October 2015

I am so thankful for my DH and DD! I am also thankful that my OB appointment went well today and I got to see my LO during our growth ultrasound. I also so so thankful that the doctor I want to deliver my LO via c section is willing to work my surgery in on a day she is not on call!!!

merrypotter · October 2015

I'm thankful to be pregnant. My boss recently adopted a little boy due to not being able to get pregnant herself. Well, the other day I was complaining about something pregnancy related and she replied with "that's a good problem to have though" and I just felt SO bad because I know she would have killed to carry her son. It just put things in perspective for me. I know I may be uncomfortable, feeling huge, exhausted and cranky a lot but I am so grateful to God for blessing me with the ability to carry my child. I felt so silly complaining about pregnancy after that.

ColoradoHiker · October 2015

I'm thankful for the generosity of my parents and in-laws for things involving the baby. I know, they're grandparents, and this is the first grandchild for both sides. But, we can afford (and do have money set aside for) expensive things like the stroller/ car seat and the crib, and they bought all of those things for us in the last few days. It's a blessing to have family and friends so excited about our baby.

On the other (less materialistic) hand, I'm thankful that our growth scan today showed that the baby is healthy, head down and weighing in at 5lbs. And for the fact that we've got less than 7 weeks to go!

susanb15 · October 2015

Thankful for- healthy baby/relatively easy pregnancy so far compared to most people , for my husband and our wonderful family and friends who offer tons of support, to having an overall great group of students this year compared to last year (sad to leave them for part of the year, but glad to have the opportunity to get to work in a happier environment), for cooler temperatures, and for only 5 weeks to go.

hlz128 · October 2015

Thankful that tests this morning showed my fluid levels are back in normal range and I'm no longer considered high risk and my baby is healthy! Thankful for all my amazingly supportive friends and family who have gone above and beyond to help with all they can. And finally thankful that my husband will be able to attend the birth(he was supposed to deploy on the 11th of this month) of our LO and that my son will have such an amazing father in his life!

wimamaof2 · October 2015

There are so many things I am thankful for:
I'm so thankful for our son and how much he is already loved. Not only by my DH and I, but by all our families and close friends.
I am thankful to have such an amazing husband who's there for me, even during my hormonal moments.
I am thankful for our dogs who keep us company and are always showing unconditional love.
I am so thankful that my work is allowing me to work from home and I am getting 5 months maternity leave.

oliarnmom1517 · October 2015

For my mechanic.. For having the few parts I needed for my car when my axel broke... My guardian angel who watched over me and kept me safe when my Axel broke.. Was able to make it all the way to the mechanic before anything too serious happened!!! Thankful for my DH who puts up with me and helps me put on my shoes without complaining and even made me food today.. my mom for watching my dogs over night because my husband has been getting up too late and they keep going in the apartment and helping me shampoo the carpet so it didn't stain! And of course a heathy little baby who is very ready to make his arrival!!

lyankowi · October 2015
