Thankful Thursday time!
This week we are thankful for:
- finally painting our living room. We had a baby shower for some friends at our house on Sunday afternoon so we decided that we should finally (after 4 years of living here) paint the living room, the only room in the house we had yet to paint. We decided at 10pm Saturday night, when there was NOT ONE THING hanging on our living room walls, the curtains were in the dryer, and the furniture was pulled away from the walls, that we were out of our minds. Did you know- painting a large room when you have a small child is a large task? If you didn’t, you do now! However, we are loving the results of our hard work.

- We are thankful for finally having something above the couch we both like. This is the THIRD thing we have hung there. Megan didn’t like the first, Jon didn’t like the second…we can finally agree on this one! Yay!

The saying says “Family- Where life beings and love never ends”. Say it with me now..”Awwwwww!”
- We are thankful for our little panda butt. Wait! Huh? Did she just say panda butt?

Yes, yes, I did just say panda butt! Look at her, all big and stuff. Standing so casually with one hand resting on her little table. Darn her for getting so big!
- We are thankful that we are finally getting some help with the laundry around this place. It is about darn time Ava starting pulling her weight around here.

(if anybody was heading off to call Child Protective Services because of the child labor implied here….it was a joke!!)
- thankful that we are finally getting in to an exercise routine. After Ava was born things got a little wild. Ava finally has a regular-ish bedtime, so we are back to the exercise. I suppose if we put it out there on the internet we can’t fail at it without the risk of major public humiliation.
Jillian Michaels 30 Day shred is our weapon of choice! She makes a mean workout video!
And, a “just because” picture:

I just love a freshly bathed baby!
