Thankful Thursday

Today I'm thankful for ...

- the one lonely bud I spotted on the tulip tree outside my classroom. It's been a pretty miserable Spring Break weather-wise, except last Friday ... heLLO 80°. I'm just so anxious for the trees to be in full bloom!

- the possibility that I might now deliver at Shawnee Mission Medical Center. I was planning to deliver at Overland Park Regional Medical Center  because my OB office is attached to it, but SMMC just opened their crazy new $45 million Birth Center and I feel like it's worth a look. We have tours scheduled at both places in mid-April. Yippee!!

- ice cream with a NuVal score of 99. That's a misprint, right? If not I'm going back to Hy-Vee to buy 10 containers RIGHT NOW.



- a long-overdue trip to Glenwood. The last time we were there was Christmas! Rob is sooo anxious to see his pup. And family, obviously. But seriously, he misses his pup. :)

- free time. Spring Break is the BEST, and it might be even better spent at home! Then again, I could just be saying that because I'm not on a beach in the Caribbean.

- this jazzy t-shirt I got in the mail this week. Go jags!


- a successful tonsillectomy that Cory had yesterday. I know I give him a hard time (almost like a brother/sister relationship... weird) but he's one of the toughest dudes around. I can't imagine going through the struggles he's dealt with over the past few years. Keep him in your prayers, friends!

- accomplishing some things on my to-do list, but not too many. Rob is the king of relaxation and I've tried my best to balance my go-go-go with his couch-couch-couch this week.

- catching up with old friends. Laura W and I have a good time when we get together and I'm hopeful that we'll have more hang-out in the near future. Also, having lunch at a trendy spot downtown had me feeling ... well, super trendy and downtown-y. Soooo, I headed to explore a nearby attraction: Union Station! It was totally worth the detour. Check out the gorgeous architecture:



- After wandering around a bit I discovered another attraction I've been dying to visit since I moved to KC: Crowne Center! Apparently they're connected via skywalk which gave me a great view of Union Station and the Liberty Memorial. Score!


- indulging. I know you're supposed to eat even healthier when you're pregnant, but it's nice to enjoy a few more treats than usual. And strawberries are healthy ... so take that.
