Thankful Thursday: Week 13

Our summer days have been so busy playing outside that it isn't until we come inside for naptime (or bedtime!) that I remember..."Oh! I have a blog! Must. Write. Post."

So, here I am, a little bit late but ready to find 7 things to be thankful for this week! I hope you'll play along!

This week I am thankful...

1. that Baby C was only sick for 3 hours yesterday! Granted, she threw up 5 times and was very very sad and miserable BUT, after waking up from a nap, she was the same ol' happy-go-lucky kid with a VORACIOUS appetite!



2. for where we live--I am able to run all over the place and to fun destinations because there are...gasp...SIDEWALKS! Woohoo! Today we ran to Ikea. Fun times! I bought C some flowers to turn into headbands. They're going to be so pretty!
   



3. that my lactose intolerance issue isn't THAT bad...because I went and splurged a whole Dollar (yes, $1) on an Ikea Fro-Yo Cone. Now that was divine! and I was very thankful for the fro-yo, too, as we cruised around Ikea

4. for a neat crafter on Etsy who kindly stepped up to the plate to offer a giveaway for tomorrow when I FORGOT that I hadn't scheduled one. Oops! Thank you, Heidi!



5. that J is staffed on a local project for the next 9 weeks and 1 day. Even though he may come home late at night, i still get to see him. I almost don't know what to do with myself but I am enjoying making him lunches!



6. that the cats, Churchill and Margaret Thatcher (aka Maggie or Mags) are finally coming around to Baby C. It has kind of taken a while but I love their company and C finds them incredibly entertaining. You'll never see her crawl faster than when she spies a cat and wants to pet it!



7. and last, and most importantly, that my Dad is able to travel to Florida today to be with my mom and grandparents as my Grandpa currently battles the worst of his troubles since his cancer diagnosis. And, FOR YOU, for including my Grandpa in your prayers. I can't even begin to thank you enough!

Okay, enough about me! What about you?
