A new post!

I know I need to make a new post but I can't seem to figure out what is exciting or even interesting in the McLeod household these days so I am just going to post just a few things that I am grateful for.
Dean!
Oh where to begin with this one. I love my husband for the way that he makes me laugh. For how close we've come in this first year of marriage. How he truly has become my best friend and even though sometimes he doesn't get me, he always bears with me. For his constant effort to become better for us. It's tough to get married when you're older and set in your ways but we've come a long way together so far and will continue to make it down this road. He loves me unconditionally. I don't wonder if Dean loves me at all, I know without a doubt that he does and what a comfort that is.
Our Baby!
I am so grateful for this little girl that in the beginning made me so sick, that makes me out of breath when I walk up stairs, that makes me feel like I am the good year blimp, that makes my feet at times look like I have elephantitis. It makes me so excited every time I feel her move in my belly or think of the first time I will get to hold her or even the thought of Dean holding her for the first time makes me exstatic. It's amazing how much I love this little girl and she is not even here yet.
My Parents!
My parents are amazing! I seriously could not ask for anything more. They love me to death and yet once again in my life I do not have to even question the love. My mom is amazing and would do anything for my little family. My dad, well, as most of you know I call him for those times when I just don't know where else to go. I know he will always walk me through the next step. Many a breakdown from me for my parents, but many solutions and guidence have come for me from them when it happens and it just helps me feel peace.
My In-Laws!
How grateful I am to have married into such a good family. My in-laws are such great people and have opened up their home to Dean and I for a while so we can get on track before our baby comes. They try so hard to make it feel like home for me and I am forever grateful.
My sisters!
Wow, this is a long post for nothing to say! :) I love all three of my sisters so much. Each one is different and unique from the other. I am close with all of them and I know that we will always be that way. I love their kids to death and I am so thankful that each one of my sisters has shared those babies with me for all these years. It made being single for so long so much easier because I had my family so close by my side.
The Gospel!
Last thing I'm gonna put on here is the gospel. It's my support, my link to my Heavenly Father. Seriously sometimes it's so hard, especially now in life to see the light at the end of the tunnel for so many of us. For me, the gospel is that light. I know that if I have faith, which might I add is easier said then done, it will all work out the way it is supposed to. How blessed I am to know of the truth and to have the direction that the gospel provides me with.

Thanks, honey!!! We are so thankful that you found a husband that loves you. It was truly an answer to my prayers(that you found someone that deserving of someone as wonderful as you) and now for that sweet little girl--What else can I say except that WE love you!!!

Oh Meg your so cute! I'm so sad that I wasn't able to go to Kacey's shower and see pregnant Meg, but my mom and Beth said you were adorable!
