Starting Fresh!


I am SOOOO grateful for a new week!!! Wes is home safe and sound and flu-less I might add! We had a very lazy weekend, which was wonderful. The only downer is that I spent most of Saturday evening with Sophie in the ER. She had a fever of 103.6. It would not really budge even with the ibuprofen and Tylenol. After being checked out and having tests run, I was told it was a virus and sent on our way. She is still running the fever today. She is such a trooper. No matter how bad she feels she will still give you the biggest smile on demand! 

Weight Watchers pretty much went to the wayside when I made cookies. I don't bake often. Mostly because of my diabetes. But on Friday I remembered how my Grandma Joan would ALWAYS have cookies made for us when we got home from school. I felt sad for my kids cause I have never done that for them. So, OF COURSE I make the best batch of cookies ever. Oh. My. Heck. I am really hoping my kids appreciated them because I will not be doing that again for a while!

Today is so beautiful out, I am so thankful for all that I enjoy. I am blessed with a wonderful Husband who provides for us. He is blessed with a really good job. Wes has always been so responsible about providing for us. When I was pregnant with Hayden  he worked 3 jobs to keep me home. How lucky am I to have him. I know last weeks trip to Chicago was not fun for him. They worked from 5 am - 11 pm , he was exhausted when he got home, but he never complained. What a good guy he is. And did I mention he is my best friend? I dvr'ed all of our favorite shows last week and we have spent the last couple nights watching them. There is nothing more fun to me than staying up late with Wes and laughing my guts out at the TV. I am a pretty lucky girl. ~E
