and the insanity continues

First I have to say that I absolutly love my life, my husband, my daughter and both our crazy families. I have had a very frustrating few weeks but am noticing that the more I stress the more everyone around me does and then NOTHING gets accomplished.
Grant will be gone, more or less, for the better part of the next 3 weeks (give or take a few days)... then home a bit and gone for a few more weeks. As we are gearing up for this I find myself realizing home much I adore him and count on him.
Mentally I have had a few weeknesses lately. Grant and I got to sit down and really talk last night about some random subjects that really had affected me mentally and physically over the past several years and finally allowing me to start letting go of things that are not really worth holding onto. I forget, sometimes, that I have this amazing man in my life that is my best friend, my strength so often... this man that I am so incredibly proud of. I am a very lucky woman.
We had some friends over Friday for the Angels home opener, for those that like baseball this is a big deal... then for me NOT SO MUCH! We had so much fun with our friends and family including another little girl. I think having another little one around solidified Grant wanting another one and then the mess in the room left me up in the air (just kidding).
After all the craziness and hormones that I went through the last few weeks I think I found the upswing. I was also getting pretty fed up listening to pregnant people complain about not wanting to be pregnant... I want to shake them and ask them if they understand that they have a blessing that so many woman would kill to have. That they should be excited and priviledged to be able to create a life... I would trade places with one of these complainers in a heartbeat. If you are pregnant there is a good chance that you know how you got that way, there is also a good chance that you did something for it to happen... so guess what you made the decision so make the best of it and be happy. Don't say "I didn't sign on for this' or 'this isn't my idea of fun'... I mean REALLY... are you JOKING with this. I do have a few awesome women that show me daily how much of a blessing they have, women that I can look up to and be proud to know. We all have bad days, pregnant ladies are no difference... please don't think I am being insensitive at all. I am just simply stating the obvious.
I am looking forward to the days, weeks and years to come with my little family. I feel so blessed every day. I have everything I could want (ok except a house, but thats coming). I have an awesome kid, an amazing husband... really cool in-laws and a somewhat functional family. What more could I want. Sometimes it just takes people around you to make you see what you have is amazing.
