I have lost 18lbs in the last month!!! I am soo excited... dh has still yet to notice though!!! But I can tell in all my clothes!!! still have LOTS to go but I am proud still...
I got a really great job at work that I started on 10/1. It's not a promotion (though I think it should be!) and I'm hoping I can make a real impact on the team.
I followed my mommy gut and called to get my son evaluated for EI. Seriously, I'm proud of myself b/c I let others tell me that I was over reacting for so long, and now it seems as if I may not be.

FINALLY!!! After 7 years of infertility!
I've been doing WW for 3 now, I've lost 13lbs! I can tell in my clothes, and I've had compliments-- one being DH, he treated me to a new pair of jeans. LOL
1. I didn't kill my kids on Saturday when they were driving me up the wall....literally 4-5 hours on Saturday one ore more of them were crying. It pushed me about to my edge. So they spent a lot of time in the bedroom so I couldn't beat them to death.
2. Mitch is finally talking...like a lot. I know its not because of ME, but I just love to teach him new words and then to hear him say it...awww.

16 months...and by talking a lot, I just mean, he probably says 20 different words (mama, dada, elmo, dora, bye bye, baba for milk, Audi, TayTay and a handful of other words...not genius level or anything!!!!) now..not like he's talking in sentences or anything! I just taught him to say "sissy's" for his sisters, and it sooooo stinking cute. I said "lets go get your sissy's" and he jumped up and started walking down the hall saying "sissy's!!! sissy's!!!!"
I sat down with my DH yesterday and we hammered out a budget. I am now taking full charge of the grocery shopping, and have challenged myself to spend less, and menu plan better to stick to the budget.
I'm really proud of myself because I HATE discussing money with DH-it normally will lead to a huge blowup, but this time, I kept my cool, and we did great.
* I didnt stress and cry when my pair of jeans didnt fit due to my growing baby belly. (Not fitting into my clothes first pregnancy was very traumatic for me and I cried every morning)

Eric took his first piano lesson
I gave an entire day to MYSELF and went to a posh spa with a good friend I hadn't seen in months
?I gave an entire day to DH so that he could go golfing with his buddies and hang out.?
