0187: Lots of rain this weekend meant canceled baseball practice...which left us with nothing to do but spend time together as a family. Good thing I love my little family!
0188: An afternoon nap is always a blessing. But waking up to find your husband has folded all of the laundry is even better!
0189: I finally got to catch up with a close friend this week. We've been friends since high school and she is a blessing.
0190: I spent a day observing a Classical Conversations group and I'm even more excited now about how this is going to work for us next year. It's something that is hard to describe, so it was really good for the boys to see what it is all about and what types of things they will be learning. I'm thankful for the friend who encouraged me to go.

0185: I'm blessed to have a dear friend that lives really close and who is always willing to watch one (or more) of my kiddo's...even on short notice. Y stayed with her for a few hours today so the boys and I could order baseball uniforms and visit a nursery.
0186: It was a chilly, cloudy day today. But it was a perfect day for us to do some work in our flower beds and our new little garden. So far we have planted a tomato plant, a green pepper plant, and lots of sunflowers.

0180: Y had to have a "physical" because she is going to have some dental surgery under general anesthesia in a couple of weeks. When our pediatrician walked in the room she was so concerned about us because the visit had been coded as a pre-surgery consultation and she thought it must be related to her heart. It is such a blessing to have a great doctor who really knows and cares about our family.
0181: At the Dr's appointment mentioned above, Y was weighed and she has passed the 30 pound mark! She was 30.6 pounds! Her surgery was 2 years ago this month and she came home from that weighing 18 pounds...which means she has gained 12 pounds in 2 years.
0182: Today I got to spend time with a friend that I haven't seen since last year. We met through baseball and only got to know each other a little. I learned today that we have even more in common than I thought. It was good to get to know her better and our kids enjoyed playing together.
0183: I tried a new recipe today and it was really good and super simple! It's Pioneer Woman's "Sour Cream Noodle Bake"...and we will be having it again!
0184: My sweet niece M is spending the night with us tonight. It is a blessing to spend time with her!

0176: A beautiful Lord's day and a relaxing afternoon spent with the family.
0177: Early bedtimes for the kids because they were worn out from their weekend.
0178: Playing Monopoly with the boys.
0179: Getting a great workout at a Zumba class tonight with my SIL. It was so much fun! We'll definitely be doing it again.

0174: My brother in law bought a smoker recently and he cooked his first meat on it today...it was a blessing to be invited over to share a meal with them.
0175: A freshly mowed lawn...the first of the season. My hubby gave up going to watch a soccer game with friends and dinner at my sister's house so he could work in our yard. I love that man!

Pictures week 11
0170: Watching Y run her little heart out and fly her kite earlier this week. She was so proud of herself. I love seeing her run...it's a blessing.
0171: The view from the mountain always reminds me of God's beautiful handiwork.
0172: Last minute plans seem to be the kind of plans that work out best for me lately. Yesterday a friend of mine who lives out of town told me they were going to be in our town for a soccer game today. I was so thrilled that it worked out that I could go see her and her precious family. This last picture is Y and her youngest child, who is also a heart baby from China.
0173: These kiddos share the same cardiologist and have had surgery at the same hospital, etc. The extra special blessing is that they both have their next cardiologist checkup on the SAME DAY next month! We didn't plan this, but I'm thankful to the One who did.
