Contentment

It's so much easier to write, vent, expel feelings when you are down. However, I also want to take this time when things are going well for my family to enjoy and revel in our happiness. 

On Monday, we will be 12 weeks pregnant. Almost through the first trimester and feeling amazing. No major illness, a few aversions, and I've had a lot of extra hours of sleep. However, I really can't complain about this pregnancy so far. As a family, we are calling this almost plum size human in my stomach "Leroy"... for now, maybe until he/she is born even. Even Audrey has gotten on the Leroy ship - it's cute! We don't take for granted what we have now, and we are so thankful to be at this point. 

I am thankful our home is safe, our cars are functioning, our family is healthy and our jobs are paying us. There are always a few hiccups along the road - oops on the checking account (so thankful for a savings that doubles as overdraft protection!), double booking ourselves for appointments, last minute schedule changes, but overall, we are thankful.

Shannon, when you read this (because I'm sure you will at some point...) thank you for everything you have helped me with the past weeks and months. The pas year has been a roller coaster for us. I am so thankful and blessed to be able to call you my husband. I love you, babe..
