42 Weeks Old

Today our sweet girl is 42 weeks old and feeling much better than this time last week!
This week was pretty normal for the most part.  Garrett's been working A LOT of hours, but thankfully some of that will be cut down this week.  His boss even sent home a box of chocolates for me as a thank you for letting him work so much.  How sweet is that?? :)  Saturday Grace got to spend the day with Grandma and Grandpa Myers while Garrett got some work done and I went to take my concealed weapons course with Allie.  We've been talking about doing it for a while now and finally, we can say that we did!! :)
Playing peek-a-boo with Grandma
Later that evening we met my mom, dad, grandma, and grandpa for a nice dinner out to Outback using our Christmas gift cards.  It was a fun evening and nice to just have an evening with no talk of work and get out with family for a little while.  We had a great time!!
Out to dinner... all bundled on a cold night :)
Holding tight to daddy at church :)
Then, Sunday after church, we as a family finally got to spend some quality time together with just us.  It was so nice to just be home next to a fire, watch the Superbowl game (well first half since it went well past our bedtime), and just be with each other.  I am so very thankful for our many blessings.  This last week has reminded me that work can be tough sometimes for Garrett and I, just in the fact that it does take up a lot of our time and can be stressful, but we do it in order to better our lives and know that it is all worth it.  We are both just very grateful to have work right now.  It can all sometimes be a handful and these long weeks aren't always easy, but picking this girl up from school each day and getting to play with her at home for a little bit makes it all worth while.  We just want to give her the best life we can :)  I think she enjoys coming home to help daddy feed the horses, watch the chickens, talk to Maggie and Cambrie, and play with us.  Here is our little pebbles... her hair is now long enough for a small pony tail... too funny!
