Today I'm not proud to admit that I ate 3 brownies, an ice cream sandwich, and a Pop Tart AND I'm thankful...
1. For my rediscovery of non-maternity clothes, namely pants I haven't worn since last fall, pre-pregnancy. I can't even tell you how excited and giddy I was this week when I put on a favorite pair of brown slacks; they fit, they didn't have annoying elastic, and dangit, I felt really good wearing them!
2. For Lana's smiles. She's smiling more and more, including during her middle-of-the-night feeding. I'm convinced she was sent here, at this time, to be my little silver-lining, my precious gift during stressful times. I literally could just gobble her up. Or put her in my pocket. I just love her.
3. That my blisters are healing. What is it with getting blisters from shoes you've worn over and over? At any rate, I've put those darn Crocs aside for now and am looking forward to wearing the new shoes my dad got me. I wore them around the house tonight and they are super comfy!
4. For friends. I don't have many, but I feel like I'm lucky to not only have good colleagues, but that many of them I consider friends.
5. That I forced myself to clean the kids' rooms, the bathroom, the kitchen AND finish Lana's laundry today when I got home. Ben had been home sick with both kids and didn't get much done. I haven't done much myself this week (since he's been home), and it felt nice to get it all done tonight, one less thing to do tomorrow.
Tomorrow we're blessing Lana at my mom's house & having a family celebration. Sunday is Ben's birthday. A busy weekend here!
