1. It has been "butterfly season" here and they have provided hours of entertainment for the kids. They love to chase them and try to catch them. Soccer games on Saturdays won't be as fun for Maddie when they are gone.
2. Clean bathrooms. Seriously...there is nothing better than walking in and it smells good, the mirrors are nice and shiny, there is nothing scattered all over the counters...you get the idea. Now if only it wasn't because I had to clean them.
3. Gerber's Little Puffs. If it wasn't for this sweet little invention, who knows if I would ever get to eat dinner when it is still warm. I ususally try to time feeding Grace dinner with eating dinner and some nights it is tricky. I ususally end up feeding Miss Loves to Eat while everyone eats and then eat after she is done. But the real cute thing about her is (note the sarcasm!) when her dinner is gone, she is bummed. Really bummed. The crying can drive me crazy. But bring out a few of the puffs (which now come in fancy flavors such as Pineapple & Mango) and she is content to sit and eat while we have dinner. Thank you Gerber.
4. We had an incident at school this week with a bully...bullies are bad. I am so grateful that Maddie talked to us and that her teacher was completely awesome with the whole situation.
5. I am thankful for cell phones. When Josh and I first got married that is one of the first things we bought. I remember juggling it between the two of us (back in the day before family plans) and since then, we couldn't live without it. How in the world did we function going anywhere without it?
And on a side note: The Office is back tonight. Hallelujah! I am so excited!!!!!!! Can you tell?!?
(I used this idea from another blog and thought it was a great idea to stop once a week and be grateful for the things in my life. Some funny, some silly, some wishy washy, and some down right sappy...but I am thankful for them none the less. If you want to do this on your blog, you are more than welcome to right click and save the image above and use it for your blog.)

Yes! Butterflies are mother nature's entertainment! And I love the smell of a clean bathroom too, though I don't smell it often enough...Gerber Puffs and Nilla Wafers are great inventions! How could ANYONE bully Maddie??? I hope she showed him who's boss! Good teachers make all the difference! And what on earth would we do without cell phones?!?! Hello convenience!
I am so thankful for all those things too-- not to be too crazy but WAY TOO EXCITED FOR THE OFFICE :) WOOHOO!
I actually remembered this time around- w/ my crazy memory- that is good.........
