This week brought some challenges. So it couldn't be a better time to bask in His blessings!
* For Texas we have had beautiful weather this week. Lots of rain, cooler temps and it looks like we may get some more of it.
* 2 boys that love me. I always say parenting is the hardest job on this planet however I also believe it is one of the most important roles in my life. The best things in life aren't easy!
*Naps! OK, so I have always loved a good nap but being pregnant naps take on a whole new meaning. I got a 3 hour nap today. This baby must be growing!
*Our home is painted! For so long I couldn't wait for it to be finished and it finally is. Now our home isn't finished but one of the biggest things is. Thank you God!
*Friends...the Lord blessed me this summer with a precious group of ladies that we met 2 twice a month. We all go to the same church and they are good friends already but we grew closer this summer. We are going to con't this group once a month during the school year!
*Homeschooling...I am so happy to have Jacob home this year. We are starting this week and so thankful for the option of homeschooling. Our week has come together and we are excited to dive in and get going. We are going to be traveling the globe this year.
*Most of you know that I spend the first 6 months of this year working on being healthier. In the middle of that we knew we were planning on getting pregnant. That concerned me a bit because I gained a lot of weight with my 1st son and less with my 2nd son but I always gained weight. This winter and spring I lost 48 lbs. It felt so good to be back at a more comfortable weight. I am 16 weeks pregnant and I still haven't gained a lb. That is just wild to me. But wonderful!!! I figure I will gain weight at some point but I am off to a great start and hopefully will keep it to a minimum. This is a surprise blessing!
*My sweet husband. Nuf said!

Bountiful blessings to bask in! Each one sweet as can be. Love the sharing tidbits you let us in on. Summer is nearly over and I have been thinking of all the blessings our Father has afforded us and our group is truly one of them. Bonding and connecting is not just a fun moment, but quite the necessity!
