Every time I hear this song on the radio, I found myself sing along or at least car dancing. I hope that you like this song as much as I do.  Have a Happy Monday , especially since I know how hard it is to return to the grind after a long holiday weekend.

As we get ready to celebrate family, friends and food on this upcoming Thanksgiving, it makes you really think about what you are thankful for. Sometimes with all of the holiday preparations I think that over all sentiment is sometimes lost. I hope this song, helps you reflect on what you are thankful for. Have a great Monday .

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.  ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Size of Baby: Babies at this stage usually weigh about 2 pounds, that is the size of a head of cauliflower, but I am sure that Baby J weighs more than that since Baby J was 1.7 pounds at the last ultrasound.  Maternity Clothes: Wearing whatever that I can get into and still trying to be cute. Gender:  What do you think boy or girl? Movement: Lots of movement especially around 8-10pm. I hope that is not a sign that this little one will be a night owl. Sleep: Getting lots every night and sometimes on my lunch hour.

 Now that I am expecting, I have been looking at baby items and realizing the expense. It is not cheap. Last week, Michelle Duggar announced that she was pregnant with her 20th baby. My first thought was "What!?" and my second thought was too congratulate her.I began to think about all the expense of one child, what about 20 children ......crazy. How many children is too many children? Should society dictate how  many children each person can have? I know some countries already try to regulate this.  Personally, I think that each couple needs to decide what is best for them then adjust their lifestyle to accommodate their choice. The hubby and I have discussed that Baby J might be it for us, but who knows what will happen when Baby J arrives. What do you think?
