-I am thankful for the little girl growing in my womb. Although, this past week and a half have felt like all I want to do is sleep, it is a blessing to know God is adding to our quiver.
-I am thankful for the girl that just called from Kaiser to remind me about my ultrasound. I knew about the appointment but HAD NO IDEA it was at a different location than usual. If she wouldn't have called, I would have missed my appointment and felt bad that Tim had taken off work.
-I am thankful for Target clearance racks. I made out like a bandit this week and always feel like I accomplished something major when I see myself paying less than 20% of what something originally cost.
-I am so thankful for Miguel. That he can be so respectful and willing to do anything I ask of him, really. Like whenever we go to Costco....Zack seems to have the hardest time there, so to avoid serious embarrassment, I will ask Miguel to take Z outside until he calms down, and he always does it with a look of understanding and compassion towards me. I am truly blessed to have him as my son.
-I am so thankful for soap and water. After watching my boys get so dirty today out on our mountain with their cousins and friend, Jacob, it was a blessing to see what their skin looked like again, once it was clean. Praise God for bath time!
-I am so thankful for my king size bed, clean sheets, and cotton nightie, which I plan to go put on, yes at 6:39pm, because I did not get my nap today and I am super cranky, along with Zack, whom also did not get his nap. I am totally feeling like he must feel right now...grouchy, tired, and in serious need of some SLEEP!! So, thank you, Lord, that I have Miguel and Karizma to help get the boys into bed later tonight so I can get to bed with my little man. And also for Timmy whom has been working day and night on a case, because without his tireless heart to provide, we couldn't afford the nice bed, sheets and nightie.
CALL ME BLESSED.
(Update at exactly 3am in the morning: HELP. NEED SLEEP. HEAD THROBBING. SLEEP. PLEASE, SLEEP. It took Zack 20 minutes of constant tears, and he never cries like that, to fall asleep. I am still a zombie and nowhere close to falling asleep. At least I got my checkbook balanced and got caught up on my blog reading. Think this is a precursor for times to come in June?!?)

Thanks for the fun day, the boys had a blast as did Moma's and well Miss G never complains, God Bless her. Sorry we couldn't stay later but we enjoyed the time we shared. Can't wait to see the new pics of Princess Isabella. SO looking forward to a pink baby shower
it's always nice to reflect on what we can be thankful for. hope you got some much needed rest....I didn't read anything I had planned on but I was crafty. Oh, I had planned on catching up on my one year Bible b/c I didn't read AT ALL the entire week I was sick..go figure and I was going to finish reading the No Greater Joy magazine on my night stand..didn't happen but oh well.
Oh, Veronica! I am soooooo sorry that you didn't get the sleep you needed! We all should have joined Jacob in taking a nap yesterday afternoon, I wouldn't have minded. Sorry to mess up your routine with naps and stuff, although, I did have a wonderful time talking with you. I love spending time up at your house with your family. I hope you get the sleep you need tonight.
I'm extremely impressed with your Target shop. I always miss the REALLY good ones.
Wow, your family is beautiful! I came over here from MckMamma's blog b/c I am also expecting in June! How fun it is to be part of God's blessings.
I told Kate about those west coast boys being raised into great husbands.....you know he'll have to be a Texas, right!! :)
