30 Days of Thanksgiving

I have seen some people doing this on Facebook. I think it is a great way to reflect and think of all we have to be thankful for. I'm starting a little late.

Day 1 - I am thankful for my wonderful spouse. He is a great partner and my best friend and I can't wait to be married to him. He has given me two beautiful children which leads me to....

Day 2 - I am thankful for my Peanut. She has been such a blessing. I love waking up every morning to see her smiling face bursting with excitement to start the day. I love that she is so loving and has welcomed her little brother into our family with open arms. I love that the first thing she has to do is give him hugs and kisses each morning. It has been an amazing 15 months of watching her grow from a tiny newborn into a toddler. I love the little person she is becoming. Nothing is better than re-experiencing life through the eyes of your child.

Day 3 (it is actually two things Sweet Pea and our GI) - I am thankful for my Sweet Pea. Sweet Pea was a big surprise. We found out we were expecting again when Peanut was only 4 months old but I wouldn't change a thing. He is such a blessing. We have a lot to be thankful for with Sweet Pea. He is such a happy baby, with a smile that just melts my heart. But it didn't start off that way. We had a lot of issues during his first days at the hospital from issues keeping food down to a failed hearing test. We had a lot of worries during his first month. He had another hearing test and passed. He continued to have problems eating but with the help of his GI we have solved that problem as well. He is such a blessing.

Day 4 - Our extended families - We are very blessed to have tons of family. Although we don't always get to see them as often as we would like, we are very thankful for our many loved ones.
