1) my parents. My oldest is bipolar and they took him for a few hours on Tuesday to give me a break...he acted like an ass so I had to meet them to give him meds and they still took him for longer even after his episode. God bless them.

2) Air conditioning. It's farking hot. Wtf.

3) Summer school. My youngest is there. It is only 3.5 weeks for 5 hours a day but it is a much needed break...plus they feed him breakfast and dinner which is a major score for my puking self.

1. summer break. I am so thankful to have spent most of first trimester at home in comfy clothes while still receiving a paycheck!

2. my massage therapist. She is a saint and does wonders with the knots in my neck/shoulders. I have an appointment with her at 5:30.

3. Good Friends. Thankful for a small group of ladies that I can be real with and that love me always.

1) my hard working husband who doesn't complain ever. Even when pretty much nothing has gotten done around this house all week long because I've been feeling so crappy.

2) air-conditioning. My heat tolerance is absolutely a minimum when I feel nauseous. ( which is super often lately)

3) thr kind heartedness and generosity of people around me. We have been given so many kids clothes in the last little bit. My three-month-old is clothed until he is at least two at this point!

I love this idea!

1) I'm on vacay with DH and DS. I'm thankful DH took time off and made this a priority.

2) My parents. They are amazing and I am incredibly lucky to have them in my life.

3)Where we Are vacationing, the temps are in the upper 70's--20-30 degrees cooler than at home. So for the next two days, I'll soak this in!

This is fun!

Enjoy your vacation @magnolia305! Sounds amazing!

1. A new job that has much lower stress levels than the previous!

2. Our new puppy, while a handful, she brings laughter and joy!

3. I second a few of you, my DH he is doing so much around he house and taking care of pup and me. I can't imagine being this sick without his help!

1. PeaPod grocery delivery - I just got groceries delivered for the first time ever, and I can't believe I haven't been doing this all first trimester!! What a lifesaver!

2. The new GOT season has just started, hell yeah!

3. Frozen grapes - FROZEN GRAPES you guys!!

ramzlau · July 2017

@ashoes123 oh yeah GOT totally could have been one of my thankfuls! Maybe someone should start a GOT thread?

clc515 · July 2017

@ramzlau and @ashoes123 Yes GOT shoulda been on mine too!
@neener*neener* A massage sounds sooooo nice! Got a leg massage last weekend and was in heaven

@julievdm12 That's awesome you're getting clothes and stuff from people! It saves so much for things kiddos won't live in for that long. Great friends.

@clc515 @neener*neener* I read that you shouldn't get a leg massage during first tri because it could dislodge a blood clot. Is that true?

Edit: leg massage not blood massage!

clc515 · July 2017

@starla I hadn't heard that but hope it's not true

I'm out of 1st tri this coming week finally, so hopefully I am close enough that it was no biggie!

1. Thankful for DH who was willing to take crazy cuts to our income to let me stay home this last year with our first baby. I started a small side business from home to help out, but it's been a sacrifice on his part since he's still going to work full time for a whole lot less wiggle room in the budget. He doesn't complain and it amazes me every day.

2. Grandmas who live close to help with my son so I can work a few hours a week

3. A healthy son and another so far healthy baby after years of miscarriage and heartbreak.

I've been so sick and miserable this week, it's hard to feel thankful for anything (which is terrible to say) but here are the 3 things that made me survive this week:

1. My husband. He has been working crazy hours, including 2 - 12 hour shifts the last two days. He has been under a lot of stress. Yet, he still comes home, feeds our daughter and does the entire bedtime routine by himself...because evenings have been so hard for me. Last night he even did laundry and gave me a neck rub!

2. My mom. I went to her house yesterday with my daughter and she took care of both of us. Today she drove to my house to help me out, including starting dinner. She even told me to call her tomorrow if I still feel this bad and she will come back. It's a 45 minute drive! I'm so weepy and hormonal...I cried after she left about how lucky I am to have her.

3. My toddlers newfound interest in movies and kids tv shows. It's not my proudest mom moment but I can barely get off the couch and at least I can use it when I need something to occupy her!

My in laws. Especially my father in law who has been stepping up and pretty much working full time on our farm the last 3 weeks since my husband broke his arm and is pretty much out of commission for the rest of the summer.

My older kids who have been working extrahard this summer without complaining due to the broken arm

Cold milk and air conditioning

Good friends to have girl talk with.
