Thankful Thursday

 Thank You God for my wonderful husband,
who turned 44 today!
 In honor of his birthday, I made him his favorite Peanut Butter Pie!
(I usually make him pie, and this is his favorite but I was inspired by Maggie's "Worth a Click" on her sidebar)
 Thankful today is also the feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin, her birthday!!
It is also our goddaughter, Eva's birthday, she turned 6 today!!! 
Happy birthday sweetheart!
Thankful for you honey!
I had 2 doctor appointments today, so it was a crazy, hectic day....
 Here's a picture of the baby....we did NOT find out the sex, but still might.
I go back in 3 weeks for another level 2 ultrasound to see how the baby is doing.
Thankful the baby's organs are all perfectly formed and the baby is healthy.
However, there are a couple things, that I will go into soon, maybe tomorrow.
I've been crying on and off since this morning.
I need to process all my thoughts and then I'll try to post them.
I am Thankful for this baby and the times we live in, to be able to see our baby like this.
Thankful for the crosses God allows us to carry and the Grace He gives us to do so.
 Thankful for the nature all around us, these dragonflies who love to sit on the end of one of our bushes...
 Thankful for matching girls and curly piggy tails
 Thankful 
 for apple painting....

 Thankful for babies who love babies!
 Thankful for big sisters who will do school work with little sisters on their laps....
 Thankful for manipulative sets.....They are lifesavers during school!
 Thankful for cookie baby faces.....
 Thankful for cookies and lemonade 
in the tree house with friends....


 Thankful for kiddos who love to play "cooking show" outside....
 Thankful for little girls who love to play "cooking show" and make something beautiful out of weeds....

 Thankful for little girls in tutus eating snack....
 Thankful for big brothers who love to read to little sisters 
and

A pause in the week for praise,
