Thankful Thursday

By -
It is very sad when my blog just becomes Thankful Thursday and nothing in between. But this week has been crazy!!! I have rearranged the bedrooms (I am not sure the girls will be happy...but...) I haven't finished Breaking Dawn yet...but getting close. I have pictures and things from Labor Day and will post them later. Since I have to run to make dinner I thought I would make a quick post.

This week I am most thankful for:

1. Bug spray to kill the baby black widow spider infestation in the garage.
2. The ability to stay home and be MOM - I love you honey for allowing me this privilege. I know it is stressful and crazy at times but I am so grateful!
3. A vacuum that sucks all the dog hair in my carpet and on my furniture.
4. MUSIC! I am amazed how a song can take you places!
5. Good friends - Lunch with the girls at Bajios and also to my peeps: thanks for hanging out today at my house, I had a blast! Let's do it more often!!
6. A strong husband who has been helping me move furniture and hang pictures.
7. A wonderful family - I love ALL of my in-laws (especially my mother-in-law) and am grateful they are a part of my life!!
8. Bins for organization.
9. My new craft room...I will try VERY hard not to let it become a catch all - and to actually do crafts and scrap booking. (I will Andie, I will!)
10. I can now see the carpet in my bedroom - see I have been cleaning!!! :-)

I'm loving the Thankfuls! I have some of those very things on my list, too. Especially loving my in-laws. :)

Gerald Shepardson has passed away.

Jennifer is a bit preoccupied with assisting her sister with the formalities of the passing of a loved one, so I hope I don't do any disservice to his memory by writing this blog post. Gerald, Gerry, or Papa Bear as Jennifer lovingly called him, is Jennifer's father. I believe he passed away on June 24th, 2008. He was 80. Grandpa Shepardson was a very talented man, a concert-level pianist and very intelligent. He did a wonderful job of preparing Jennifer to marry me, because he loved music, photography, thrift shopping, "STUFF", dry humor, bad puns, reading, sharing the knowledge of his passions, and sarcasm. I love him and was sad to hear of his passing. I'm not sure if I expressed to Jennifer my admiration for her father, but I certainly hope she knows that I have always felt him to be a kindred spirit from the day I met him face to face. We love you Papa Bear! You will be missed.

OK I know 4 months isn't really very old...but I am sad that she is growing up at all! I am having so much fun with her! She is happy ALL the time. There is nothing better than being woken up to her talking in her bed in the morning. She doesn't roll much yet - mostly when she is mad. But it's coming. She is VERY strong and it probably won't be long before she is sitting on her own. YEAH!! Isn't she just dang cute!! (I realize I am a bit biased....I say this often don't it) LOL

Her first solid food.....well kind of solid

BEFORE THE FEAST: AFTER THE FEAST: Jilly had her 4 month doctor's appointment today. She weighs in at 13 lbs. 4 oz. (45% of average 4 month olds) and is 25 inches long (80% of average four month olds). She is tall and thin.....not a bad way to be. :-) So after her check up (and the shots - poor thing) the doctor said she was definitely ready for cereal. So we came home and gave it a try. She wrinkled her nose a lot and everything came out at least once before she figured out that she should swallow it. But she was (is) dang cute doing it!! So, now we have a new fixture in the dining room....the high chair. YEAH!!
