counting my blessings

Our New Home
1. We can finally expand our family without worry!
2. Our very own HUGE YARD!
3. A garage to park in during our hideous winters!
4. A separate space for day care!
5. More stairs for Grahammy that he can do alone- less stairs for mommy to carry up groceries and babies!
6. Neighbors!
7. Two bathrooms!
8. More room for family gatherings!
9. Room for sleepovers!
10.Gardening (when I get around to it)


Babies
1. The little goofs can't stand being apart for 2 days but when they're together they fight like brother and sisters!
2. A BRAND NEW BABY ROBERTS on June 23rd! This Auntie can hardly contain herself!
3. Lana is speaking in full sentences a lot of the time.
4. Graham has spoke in quite a few two and three word sentences. They are both able to better express themselves, making life a whole lot easier!
5. Graham and I have bonded even closer with daddy being gone all evening to work on house. He has a new routine- play "mine" with mommy's blankie by taking it away and exclaiming "mine". Then decides to share it and cuddle for awhile while asking me to tickle his feet.
6. Wylie is out of school for the summer and has already been a huge help to me- he has allowed me to take a shower before noon everyday he's been here!
7. The babies are taking well to their new nap schedule- only one nap a day after lunch.
8. Goes for new house and babies- new sand box- they played nicely in it for an hour the other day! Oooohhhhwwwwiiiieee I can't wait to move and put them in it everyday.
9.The kids all are very confident in their swimming skills already this summer. G wants to be left to swim on his own in mom's new 4 1/2 foot pool. He paddles and kicks all on his own. We start swim lessons again soon!
10. My mom has officially resigned and we are going to take on home day care in my new home- she and I will be there everyday raising the ones closest to us. This is perhaps the most amazing blessing of all that I get to be with the precious little ones day in and day out!


Now watch me complain in my next post... ;) hope you all can find time to count your blessings everyday. These are just a few of the many many I have!
