So, moving on to this recent week...still sick and trying to get better, but I think I am getting better, but we keep passing things around. I just hope that we are all healthy before the baby gets here, which can't come fast enough. We are so ready to have this baby out of my tummy! We're hanging in there though, I know just about everyone hates being pregnant in the summer when it's so hot, but this summer has been quite mild so far, so it's not actually the weather that's killing me, it's my lack of motion, energy, and stamina....and the fact that I wake up every two hours to go to the bathroom in the night since my baby insists on resting/kicking my bladder all night long. :)
We had a great 4th of July weekend. We got a lot done and Morgan had an extra day off work. We had a little BBQ with his family that turned out really nice and relaxing, and we even watched the neighbors fireworks a little bit. Even though my kids were terrified of fireworks earlier, they sort of figured out they wouldn't get hurt and liked them in the end. I guess we'll have to start incorporating some fireworks in our traditions next year. It's about time now that Logan is understanding holidays more and Morgan and I are wanting to make sure we have some fun traditions that we do each year. Some things just fall into place, but others we want to start new with our little family.
This year has really got us both thinking about our freedoms and our blessings and now that Morgan doesn't have to study every night we've been reading some books together. Right now we're reading The 5000 year leap it's really good if you haven't read it. There are so many things that we have taken for granted that I hope we can show more gratitude for. We are truly blessed to live in this nation regardless of current circumstances. There will always be trials and challenges and things will happen that we may not agree with, but as long as we keep our faith and are diligent in doing what's right and good, we have been blessed to live in the promised land and pray that it will remain so. Until next time...
