TODAY.
Today is a day I am linking up to give thanks...


in NO particular order...
here are (just) a few things I am thankful for right now.

These two....
they share dimples, grumpiness in the morning,
and a love for each other that is the most amazing thing to watch.

That the little girl in my belly is healthy and (very) active!
{she keeps me up at night all. the. time. with her gymnastics}

That we live in a small town now,
where school buses drop kids off at their houses,
where people actually pull over for ambulances driving by,
and we can go see Daddy at the office anytime we want, in 5 minutes tops.

That this little Diva keeps me on my toes, and makes my life SO fulfilling.

That I have a husband who is so obedient to the Lord and is faithful to
do whatever is in front of him.

That Thanksgiving is next week and we get to spend time with family,
eat yummy food,
and go to a good friend's wedding.

That Abigail is sleeping so well in her "big girl bed"
and is growing up every day into such an amazing little girl.
{she is still my BABY though.}

I am thankful for blogging.
SO thankful.

Thankful for God's continued
provision for our us.

That my North Face will still zip up over my pregnant belly.
barely. but it does.
(if you know me, you know I wear my North Face like every day)
...im hoping to squeeze (literally) out another week or two or wearing it,
but you may see my wearing my hubby's after that! :)

Photobucket

That I am making some new friends in our new town.

Thankful for good friends who may live far,
but stay so close.

That I have the best little sidekick,
who is constantly making me laugh.
(chillin like a queen in the Target basket...and just hanging out while mama showers)

Photobucket

I am thankful that she makes me stop to smell the flowers.
She makes me appreciate the small things.

Photobucket

That I have the best job in the world as a full-time mommy.
(even though sometimes I miss going to the bathroom
without a little person climbing all over me) :)

For the Texas Aggies (yes, I said it),
They have had a horrible season but I love them nonetheless.
my blood will always be maroon.

For AMAZING grandparents,
who love on our little family so well.

Chai Tea with Soy at my newly found local coffee shop.

Going to get my Chai tea on Tuesday and Thursday
mornings after I drop Abigail at Mothers Day Out.
(guess where I am now?!)

For our home, and that it feels like home.

for our newly discovered love of JUICING!
fresh, healthy, and fun. (and messy too, but worth it!)

Photobucket

For life dreams and goals,
and for a husband that is continually willing to talk about them with me.

For technology, that has allowed me to be part of this amazing blog community.

For our little girl growing inside.
(who now has a name, but you'll have to wait 7 more weeks, sorry!!)

Photobucket

That it is getting cold.
(there was frost on the rooftops this morning...yay!)

for prayer. and that I have a God I can speak with anytime.

for Shirley Temples.
this pregnant momma deserves a "drink" sometimes too!

Photobucket

for this smile.
