Ten Things Tuesday

After reading Jennifer's blog, I am going to list 10 things I am thankful for today:


1. My sweet, sweet baby girl. I just laid her down for a nap and there was about 2 seconds of fussing before she went to sleep...I'm thankful she is such a great sleeper (when swaddled!).

2. At lunch today with some friends, Elyn sat contentedly in her car seat for about 30 minutes before requesting (by shouting out) to be picked up. It was nice to talk and eat without holding someone for a while.

3. It is an absolutely beautiful day outside. As soon as Nora wakes up, we are going to play in the backyard.

4. I received an Ebay purchase in the mail today...I love those days!

5. Frozen pancakes. They make breakfast a lot easier on busy mornings.

6. I deposited our state tax return at the bank today!!!!! YEA!

7. Today was Ladies Bible Class and it was all about patience. I am thankful that I was there to reflect on how I need to improve in this area and remember that I can always ask God for help.

8. Nora loves going to Sonshine School on Tuesday mornings while I am in Ladies Bible class. I am thankful that she loves it and am thankful for her teachers who love her.

9. Putting on a pair of pants today that I wore before I found out I was pregnant with Elyn and they zipped! Granted, there is still some work that needs to be done before I wear them in public, but, hey, they zipped!

10. My wonderful family!
