What I am thankful for

Is it just me or is everyone doing the "one a day" post update on facebook about what they are thankful for? There is no way I would remember to do that every single day, but i did want to make a list  of things that I am grateful for in my life. So I will do the same kind of idea here on my blog. Rather than one a day for 30 days I will just make a list of 30 things right now.



I am thankful for...

  1. My husband. He works so hard for Jaxon and I and he is the GREATEST dad in the world!
  2. Jaxon. He is such a joy to our family and I am so lucky to spend most of my days at home with him.
  3. My Family. They are always willing to help with Jaxon and they are always there for us.
  4. My mother and father in law. For raising my husband to be the man that he is.
  5. My brother and sister in laws. For always making me feel included and helping watch Jaxon.
  6. My husbands job. As much as I hate the hours that he works, I am grateful he has a job.
  7. The gospel. Just knowing I will be with my family FOREVER is so comforting.
  8. Friends. As you get older friends take a whole new meaning.
  9. My job. I have the most amazing boss and co-workers.
  10. The holidays. Being with family and making decorations.
  11. Our pantry. Is fully stocked with food to put on the table.
  12. A Healthy family. We always forget to be grateful for this until we are sick.
  13. A house to live in. James and I are SUPER blessed with our housing situation.
  14. Hand me Downs. James and I have saved SOOOO much money with this one.
  15. Cameras and Video cameras. I get to catch my favorite memories on film to cherish forever.
  16. Sweats. Nuff said:)
  17. Both of our cars. I would die if I didn't have a car to go out and do things during the day with Jax.
  18. A wonderful marriage. James and I get along so great and he treats me so well.
  19. Washing machines and dish washers. I hate washing things by hand.
  20. Law and Order SVU. hahaha I just love that show.
  21. This blog. It allows my in-laws to see what's going on in our lives from another country.
  22. Cell phones. How people survived without them I will never understand.
  23. America. We are all blessed to live here.
  24. A baby that sleeps 12-14 hours EVERY night. I can get so much done after 8 p.m.
  25. Date night. It's pretty rare now days, but I love quality time with the hubbs.
  26. Motherhood. Is the most fulfilling and life changing job in the world. I love it.
  27.  Fatherhood. Being a father and being a "dad" are totally different in my opinion. And James is one a.m.a.z.i.n.g DAD!
  28. The four seasons. I love when the temperature changes and my wardrobe changes.
  29. Family traditions. I love looking forward to holiday traditions and I am excited to start making new ones with my own family.
  30. Dr. Pepper. Nothing like a cold DP after a long day.

What are you thankful for??
