I'm thankful for fantastic in-laws. Most of Greg's family lives here in Arizona and we are so lucky to have them close! This is my sister-in-law (Tara) and her daughter Taytum with my mother-in-law (Linda). They came over to join Emma and I for lunch last week and we had a wonderful time. Tara is due at the end of May with their second and we are excited for the new cousin!
I'm thankful for a father-in-law who can rock a crying baby to sleep. He and my mother-in-law came over to "hang" with us on Saturday. Every time Emma would start to fuss he would start to rock her (as seen in the picture) and she would calm right down. Lucky Emma to have so many people that love her and care for her.
I'm thankful for very talented friends that make Emma beautiful dresses to show off at church. Our dear friend Courtney made this gorgeous dress! Can you believe it? Everyone at church kept commenting on her dress and were stunned when I told them it was made by a friend.
I'm thankful for my morning walks around Kiwanis Park. I walk every morning with Emma and on Mon, Wed, Fri my wonderful Aunt Sharron joins us with her puppies. For those of you freezing your bums off in other parts of the country, be VERY jealous of our beautiful Arizona weather this time of year... because come summer, I will be VERY jealous of your weather. What are you thankful for today?

What a beautiful little girl!! I am so excited to hold my own little, tiny baby. It really does make this whole pregnancy thing worth it.
I'm thankful for a good night's sleep. That is something I might not experience very much in a few months time!
I'm thankful that Brent had school off so i could do my visiting teaching without 2 kids. I don't think that has ever happened and I could totally get used to it!
I love when grandparents visit and can calm down the babies. I also hated when other people could get my babies to sleep because it was like they had the magic touch and nothing I did worked!!
I am thankful for a clean house, Ben playing with his toys instead of the kitchen utensils and the drunken smiles I get from Tyler when he eats.
I am also SO grateful for AZ weather Especially after a stressful COLD GRAY week in Utah. And how come I'm not invited on your walks?? I can walk fat! (scratch that, I meant FAST...but then again I can also walk fat. Hence the walking...) Even with 2 kids in the largest cadillac of double strollers available!
I LOVE that dress! I can't believe someone could make that. I used a loom to knit a beannie and felt so crafty, I can't even imagine making a dress! Adorable.
Oh ya, and I am thankful for spring break. Seriously, I'm going insane.
