I promise I'm thankful!

It hit me the other day that I sort of just... stopped... with the Thankful Thursdays posts.  It wasn't super intentional, but I realize that the abrupt manner in which I ditched you guys was pretty impolite.  It's kind of like a host not showing up to her own party.

Actually, it's exactly like that.

And I'm sorry, you guys.  It isn't like a southern girl to forget her manners! :)  But I think being forced to list my blessings out each week made me less inclined to be genuinely grateful for them.  So I think I'll just post about being thankful when I feel thankful, if that's alright with you all.

Today I'm thankful that my sweet friend Jennifer's little boy made his arrival yesterday.  Jennifer's pregnancy was difficult and stressful on multiple levels, and I know she was so, so, so excited to finally meet her little man.  And he's precious, y'all.

I'm thankful to have a spontaneous middle-of-the-week semi-date night with Micah tonight.  At work, we're taking our summer interns to a "fancy" bowling boutique, and Micah's coming along, so my mom is keeping Gracie this evening.  I'm fantastically terrible at bowling, so it should be a good time.

I'm thankful for my husband, who made up all of today's bottles before he left for work this morning.  Love is... a refrigerator full of prepared formula.

And last, but certainly not least, I'm thankful for this sweet girl.

Her sleepy little face and those footie pajamas just kill me.

Hope you're all having a fabulous Thursday, friends!

Ah, don't worry about the TT posts! I haven't done them every week for a while, either. It's not that I'm not thankful--it's just I keep forgetting or don't have time to post some days. I did write one today, though. :)

Have fun with your man tonight! And I love Gracie's hair--there's SO much of it! :)

I just love that picture of G! Isn't it the best when they just wake up? I love watching L stretch and then pop open her eyes and smile real big. Melts me!

Seriously... I think she can't get any more precious, and then you show another picture and I'm proved wrong again!!!
