SUPER Thankful on Thursday

We are VERY thankful this Thursday....we are 12 weeks pregnant!!!

The baby is measuring 2 days ahead of schedule, has a strong heartbeat and was moving around and looking right at us....our hearts are so filled with happiness and love.

Thank you so much for your love and support....we cannot wait for you to meet our bundle of joy in December :)

Thankful Thursday

So much to be thankful for.......

1) My wonderful hubby for cooking, cleaning and putting up with my craziness the past couple of weeks.

2) Only 3 more SOL tests left to administer.........WOO HOO!!  (And did I mention only 11.5 days of school left for the kiddos and teachers!!!)

3)  Leo....just because he is so damn cute!

4) Seeing Ashley this weekend :)

5) That lovely thumping sound :)

6) June 7th....very anxious and nervous while excited at the same time.  I can make it...only a few more days :)

7)  My sister and her hubby closed on their new home in CO....much further away but more space for my two favorite nephews to run around in.

8)  My mom for always making my day better with her phone calls and emails :)

9) Homemade pretzels....amazingly yummy :)

10)  Healthy news for a friend who has been in and out of the hospital this week!

Until next week......

Happy Anniversary

Today is our third wedding anniversary....where did the three years go??  I'm one of those people who truly believes and knows that I married the love of my life and my best friend.  I cannot wait to spend many more years together.  I actually look forward to getting old and wrinkly with my hubby!  I love, love, love, love him!  Together we make a perfect match!  I think this sums TJ and I up:
"YOU ARE THE Peanut to my Butter, Twinkle to my Eye, Shake to my Bake, Blue in my Sky, Sprinkles on my Sundae, Flip to my Flop, Bumble to my Bee, Jewel on my Crown, Milk to my Shake, Spring in my Step, Beat of my Heart, Love of my Life."
Here are some of my favorite Wedding Pictures :)

A year ago today....

A year ago today, TJ and I found out we were pregnant with our first baby thanks to Shady Grove.  While it did not end as expected, it is still a day I will never forget and a day I will remember with happiness.  My sister and nephew, Erik, were here to make the day extra special.

We are still continuing on our quest to become parents and start a family......we continue to wish that all our hopes and dreams of starting a family will come true in the near future...we just keep believing :)

Thankful on Thursday

I feel like this has been the longest week ever!!!

1) I am super thankful that I got to spend my entire spring break with my hubby and Leo.  We had so much fun together...it was much needed!!

2) A very exciting possible job opportunity for the hubby...fingers crossed :)

3) A clean house...so I didn't have to work on Monday (no worries, I worked the Saturday before spring break) and I was a cleaning machine!!!  I cleaned the floors, bathrooms, windows, baseboards and did all the laundry!!  I love having a clean house :)  I also made candles in the crock pot in between my cleaning...pictures coming soon!

4) A very supportive boss who didn't blink an eye when I left for an hour on Wednesday to go to the doctor (sinus infection and laryngitis) and then take off today to rest my vocal cords.  I do sound like a mouse half the time and raspy the other half but my nose is feeling much better.  I actually slept last night so that is a positive!!  Two thumbs down for Zpack though...rips my stomach apart!!

5)  My mom for always being there to listen and always sending me positive emails to keep my hope alive.

6) Leo....right now he is playing with his tongue...he keeps sticking it out and trying to lick invisible air....it's super cute.  He loves having TJ home during the day!!

7)  Happy and healthy babies for several friends :)

8) TJ....he is just amazing and I love him more and more each day. 

9)  Friends, both old and new...I feel blessed and am thankful for each and every one of you :)

Fabulous Friday

Let me start off by saying that the lack of posts this week are due to Spring Break and the fact that is has been super fabulous!  TJ resigned from his job, for so many reasons, and his last day was the Friday before Spring Break.  This is the first time since I've been working in Education that I've been able to spend my Spring Break with my hubby!! And.....he was happy and stress free!!  I worked on Saturday and we spent the afternoon with Ashley and Ace.  We did some couponing on Sunday and had dinner with Sandy and Jimmy (I don't know what I ate but I rocked hoopla with some wicked guesses!!)  We took Leo camping for a few days, stayed in our PJ's all day on Wednesday and then TJ spoiled me on my birthday.  It's days like these that remind me of how lucky, thankful and happy I am to be married to my best friend.  The best part was waking up, looking over at TJ only to see him smiling back at me and then having Leo wag his tail because we was so happy we were both up :)

Still excited for 4 more days of spring break......filled with a trip to visit TJ's friends on the farm, a visit to Grandma and Grandpa Y and to see baby Avery :)

Here is one of my favorite pictures from our camping trip....we attempted to get all our feet/paws in it.... (I can't figure out how to flip it....you get the point!!)

Until next time........

I believe......

Sick

I've been trying to avoid saying it, but it's official...I'm sick :(  I left work around 11 am today (had to be there for the state wide tornado drill, especially since my beautiful school is covered with windows so we really need to make sure everyone would potentially be safe!).

Here is the kicker....did you really expect this to be easy, go to the doctor, get meds and feel better??  Really??  Nope...I have no fever :(   My nose isn't runny or stuffed, no sore tummy and I don't have a bad cough!  I'm super achy, exhausted and just feel yucky!  My chest feels a little tight and I cough occasionally but nothing significant.  I took a 2 hour nap today and woke up not feeling much better!!

AHHHHHHHHHH.....the plan is to take it easy and if I'm not better by Friday, I'll try to get an appointment with the doctor!!  All this and I'm supposed to run my first 5K on Saturday...looks like I'll be walking if doing it at all :(

Sorry to be a debbie downer with this post!!  Hoping that this post finds you HEALTHY and enjoying the beautiful (way to early to be this nice) weather :)
