Today is one of those days when I just sit back and think about how incredibly lucky I am. I have 6 beautiful, healthy children, a wonderful husband who loves and spoils me, a nice house to live in, etc…. I could go on. I am so blessed. We have had a really nice 3 day weekend together as a family. Didn’t do anything especially exciting, just spent time together. We cooked chicken, hamburgers and hot dogs on the grill this evening and ate outside in what my 4 & 3 year old munchkins refer to as ‘the clubhouse’. It is a canopy thing with netting around it. This one to be exact:
. The kids all love it when we eat outside. I held the baby in my lap while we ate, and she enjoyed being outside, never made a peep, just sat and looked around. She is almost 12 weeks old. Time flies so quickly! Here is a picture that I took of her a week or so ago:
I have that picture as the background on my computer. I think it is so cute.
I was afraid tonight was going to be a disaster. While hubby was getting ready to start grilling I started feeling a migraine coming on. I haven’t had one in quite awhile, and it really came on quick and hard. I took an Imitrex, which didn’t seem to be working so well, so I took a hydrocodone and ran a hot bath. By the time hubby had everything ready to eat I was feeling so much better, thank God! I have suffered from migraines for many years now, but am lucky enough to at least get a break from them during my pregnancies. I haven’t had one since early on in my pregnancy, and it was so nice not having to deal with them. I am afraid that they are going to start coming on again. I may have to go back on Topamax everyday to try to reduce the number of them again.
Hubby and I are going to Vegas in 11 days! Woohoo! I love Vegas! We got 3 free nights at Bellagio.
I am so looking forward to staying there! We have never stayed there before. The last few times we been to Vegas we have stayed at MGM Grand. It is a nice hotel/casino. The beds there are the most comfortable beds hubby and I have ever slept on! But I can’t wait to see the rooms at Bellagio! Hopefully I will come back with alot more money in my pocket than I’m leaving with!
