(Now that Ben is able to walk we're putting him to work.)




Today I am thankful for...
1. my sweet neighbors who gave this gift to Ben for Christmas, along with gifts for all the other kids on the block.
2. my cousin Amy who surprised me with a box full of homemade goodies sent to my house from Kentucky! Watch out Cressie Prince, that's all I got to say!!
3. the Veggie Tales sing-along CD Amy sent for Ben for his birthday, it was in the box full of goodies. :)
4. making TWO meals today, apple pancakes for breakfast and meat/potatoes/vegetables for dinner! (Both recipes from my mom). :) Just so you know, I average about two home cooked meals A MONTH, so today was huge progress.
5. the coverings on my bay window.
6. feeling domestic today.
7. my mom feeling much better. Still sick, but much better.
8. the time I spent dancing with Ben this afternoon. (To the new Veggie Tales CD, thanks Amy!)
9. Mark giving Ben a bath while I finished dinner.
10. just a great day all around, I'm very happy.

Saturday afternoon, 2pm, got home from Costco and thought I might be going into labor. Troy woke up from his nap at 3:30, sensed what was going on and was not too happy about it at all. Thinking it was pretty early, but not want wanting to take any chances, we left for the hospital a bit before 4 o'clock Yep, too early. Walked the halls for an hour which produced more of these... Which felt like this... And at 8:42pm they led to this... We are so thrilled to add a precious baby girl to our family We love you Mia Joy! (7lbs 2oz, 18.5" long)

I know that people come from good places and the intentions behind their comments are never bad, and sometimes they're actually funny, but sometimes I just want to say, um, really? Is that the BEST thing you can think of to say? Here are some of my faves from last week... "I'm going to un-friend you on facebook because you do not look like you just had a baby a week ago." - sorry? "What's her name? ... Oh I know SO MANY Mia's. Like, SO many." - great. "Are you guys finished yet? Is there some literature out there I can get for you (to teach you about prevention)?"

This is the one I hear from almost everyone, it's not necessarily a bad thing to say, I just get it A LOT, "Two boys and two girls? Oh, the perfect family." Does that mean before Mia we had an imperfect family? I also hear endle

I'm pretty excited because I'm not crafty, at all, but when I saw this idea on my new favorite crafty blog I got all giddy because I thought, "I can do that!" and so I did. And since my kids ARE crafty, go figure, I had all the stuff to make them on hand - yippee! All I had to do was buy the goodies that make the wings, which only cost me a dollar (thank you Dollar Tree!). I put them in the kid's little Easter buckets. I hope they like them as much I do. :-)
