I had planned on doing this post on a computer so I could add more pictures to it but we had to cut Thanksgiving at my mom's short today since we had to take Jax out to ER. He just has an infection and we were home within a couple hours so he is fine! Anyways, I thought I would post some of the things I am most thankful for since I missed out on doing so throughout the month.
First off, I am very thankful for my husband. We may have our bad times but it's the good days that are more important. I don't know where I would be without him and I really do love him for better or worse just as I vowed over 4 years ago.
I am thankful to have a healthy, cute, 3 year old. Jaxton may be mouthy and have quite the attitude some days but there are so many moments where he is sweet, entertaining, and so smart that wash them all out. I love how he randomly comes to give me a kiss and tell me he loves me. It really melts my heart. Even though he grows more every day in so many ways he is still my big baby and I wouldn't trade him for anything.
Then there's Bentley. I am very thankful to have not just one, but two healthy boys. He is my rambunctious, adorable, mama's boys. He definitely looks for trouble anywhere he goes but then he comes to snuggle and you can't be mad at him anymore! Even though he is my little instigator it keeps me on my toes and I can't wait to see him continue to grow.
I am also more than thankful to still have another baby boy on the way. I know to never take the kicks forgranted and even when they keep me awake I love them. I can't wait to meet him and see what his personality will be like but hopefully that'll still be a couple months away.
Along with the topic of this baby I am thankful to have such great nurses and doctors that put up with me. I know first-hand how horrible doctors can be and I've never been to a better office. They deal with me without sounding annoyed no matter how often I call.
The rest of my family has done so much for us lately also that I have to be thankful for. I am glad we are back home to be closer to them again and let the boys all spend time together. I really didn't realize how much I appreciated them til they weren't around anymore.
I also am thankful to be talking with my friend Rachel again. It is amazing having someone I can talk to about anything and not worry about being judged. I wish we lived closer so we could hang out more but at least we have ways of keeping in touch!
It may sound cheesy but I'm also thankful for my BG girls. I've been lucky enough to get to meet a few I've been closest to and I talk to them more than my friends here. They have helped me through so much and made raising these boys so much easier by answering any questions I have that I don't know what I'd do without them!
Other than people, I'm thankful for all the little things in life I take forgranted all the time. A roof over my head, plenty of food on the table, the chance to have books to read, and to be able to run around with my boys.
I may not have everything I'd like but I have more than I need. For the most part I really do love my life even when there are low points. Everyone has them though and there are always people worse off than I am.
Last but not least, I am thankful for everyone who cares about me enough to be reading this:) I have great friends and family that I know really care even if we don't get to talk that much!
