Pregnant People Have "Brains" Too.

This week, what did we do this week...

As I sit here trying to remember what we did this week, Pregnancy Brain is getting me!
For those of you who do not know what this is, I have found a few illustrations to help- (to distract you while I think).

So now that I sit here for a while I do remember what we did this week!

James was sick, I was not. James was sick, I was not. James was sick, I think I might be... James is sick, I am definitely sick. But James is getting better! But I am still sick! But I am starting to get better.... But James might be sick again?!?!?!?! But now we are both better. ;)

Hehe. 

Also it was really sunshiny yesterday :D And I was sittin outside tanning... And it was so wonderful.

Now please enjoy this picture of a smiling sunshine.

In all seriousness as far as pregnant brain goes... I really don't remember a lot of things... But! Pregnancy is so great! It is a beautiful thing. Feeling her kick, and knowing I had part in creating such a beautiful life is one of the best feelings in the world :) And knowing how fast it's going and how soon she will be here is even better!! I cannot wait to hold this precious angel. 

Going through all this, having realizations of how motherhood will be, Feeling even more like a mom in everyday life... Has made me so much more grateful for my own mom :) She has done so much for all of us, and continues to do so. Even when we don't deserve it she is always there! And let me just list some things I am grateful for- which without my mother I wouldn't know the greatness of these things. 

~ Rules! I would be so lost if not for rules. 

~School! The opportunity to learn and have learned is an amazing feeling, and my little brother Sam thinks so as well I have discovered. 

Sam's homework I saw this morning.

~ Chores. I am thankful for chores and responsibility, the opportunity to be self sufficient.

~ The Gospel! So thankful for the Gospel. 

~ My loving Family. My parents, siblings and husband!

~ Family History

~ People

~ And when the "f" key on the computer works really well, unlike today :)

:D That was this week and a peek into my head. Stay tuned for next week when I...umm...I'll get back to you on that.

“Babies are such a nice way to start people.” 
― Don Herold

A mother is a person who seeing there are only four pieces of pie for five people, promptly announces she never did care for pie. -Tenneva Jordan

No language can express the power, and beauty, and heroism, and majesty of a mother's love. It shrinks not where man cowers, and grows stronger where man faints, and over wastes of worldly fortunes sends the radiance of its quenchless fidelity like a star.
