Thankfulness ; The Countdown to Thanksgiving Day 14

Another day that Maddie was home from school , she had 103 fever this morning and was crying of an ear ache. I'm telling you if  it's not one thing, it's another. Caden woke up with his eyes crusted shut....awesome. So I took them both to the doctors to get some medicine because clearly things are not getting any better around here lol. So it turns out that Maddie has croup, a sinus infection, and a double ear infection. Caden has a double ear infection, a sinus infection and an eye infection. So They are on a ton a meds. I'm just glad we got this taken care of because I hate seeing my babies sick.  I'm hoping they are feeling better enough for school tomorrow. 

Leo started his 4/10's at work this week, meaning he works 4 10 hour days so he has to go in at 4:30 which SUCKS!  But the plus side is that he is off on Friday so we are camping out with this kids. It's going to be a lot of fun....as long as they are feeling better :/

Anyway, Today I am thankful for my health.....although I have a slight cough I am pretty lucky that so far it hasn't been too bad. Because every mom knows that it sucks being a mom and being sick.

Thankfulness ; The Countdown to Thanksgiving Day 9

Today is already the 9th! This month is flying by, and before we know it , it will be that time of the year again! I can say this year I am actually looking forward to the holidays.Maybe because I am making my first Thanksgiving meal this year. I'm pretty excited about it. usually I am stressed with the hustle and bustle of it all and money and such but this year I have a feeling will be different. 

Onto my daily thanks :)....Today I am thankful for my amazing, silly, crazy son , Caden Bryce! He is definitely a mommas boy and loves cuddling. He is very creative and loves to color ,write, and draw. I am very blessed to have him as my son.

Thankfulness ; The Countdown to Thanksgiving Day 2

Good morning bloggers! Although it is way to early for me and I am not a morning person whatsoever! The only thing I can think about right now is taking a nap lol, but that's beside the point! It's day 2 on my countdown to Thanksgiving! Yay! I can actually say I am really looking forward to the holidays this year. Usually I'm just like bah humbug. I'm not sure what has changed but I like it. I'm ready to pull out the Christmas decor already, and start getting crafty with all of the awesome ideas I have collected on Pinterest! Which is another post for another day.....but lets just say as a crafty mom....I'm OBSESSED!

I digress...




Today I am so thankful to actually have our own home! I feel amazingly blessed that we are able to finally have  a place that is completely ours and I love it! It's big enough for all of us, we have a beautiful yard for the kids to play outside and I just can not wait to decorate for Christmas! Even though I will have to buy some new decorations because ours is very limited considering the size of our old house! But I'm excited to say the least!

As a side note; I do count my blessings every day but this month I thought I would take extra time to talk about them and really reflect on all of the wonderful things I have to be thankful for! I truly am blessed!
