Since 2011 is almost over (can you believe it??), it might be nice to take a moment and reflect on the best things that happened to us this year!
Apart from my little one, of course, the best part of 2011 was my wedding last January. It went off without a hitch and was simple, sweet, and so much fun!
Re: Positivity Post: Best of 2011
Welcome to the world, Baby W: born on 3/8/12 @ 3:49pm - 8lb 11 oz, 22 in.
2011 was the best year of my life! We got married in April, sold our condo in June, got pregnant in July, bought our beautiful house in September and are just loving life.
I know that 2012 will bring even more joy to our lives with the addition of our son
Finding out I was pregnant in June, right after my early loss in May.
And NPR: My last hurrah beach trip in June (literally a week before B was conceived). It was a big crazy party with my friends for a weekend and exactly what I needed right before finding out I am going to be a mom.
Having the opportunity to travel the world and live abroad for the first half of 2011 was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but my pregnancy is far and away the best thing that's happened.
Also I made some amazing new friends this year and I'm really grateful that they're in my life
Happy 2012 everyone!
The year 2011 brought our 2nd anniversary in early June, vacation to see our friends in SC at the end of June (where we conceived!), Vacation to Cape Cod in July-where we got our BFP! Looking forward to 2012 and meeting our newest little member of the family!!
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!

2011 was definitely my best year thus far. We got married in Mexico this April, found out we were expecting in July, and got some great remodeling done on our home.
Cant wait to see what 2012 has in store for our growing family!
Ooh, where did you travel and live? I've always wanted to do some real traveling...I went to Hawaii when I was 12 and to Canada two years ago, but that's pretty much it. DH and I are hoping to take at least a small trip every other year.
After two years of trying and a m/c in January, having a sticky pregnancy!!!
Also, we celebrated our first anniversary and DH got called back to an old job which meant a $50,000 raise for him.
Me (33). DH (37). DD (2.2012). MCs x4. After 4 years & 7 months, due 4.2018!
Getting hitched up to my hot husband this March was pretty awesome, then we went on a 2 week cruise which was also pretty awesome. Then finally our sticky pregnancy!! 2011 had some hard times but was a pretty good year for us overall!!
1. Finding out I was pregnant on my birthday (July 4th)!
2. This might sound odd, but getting laid off from my job in early November! I did really enjoy my position and got some great experience, but the company itself was making me miserable. I really wanted to do freelance graphic design from home and be a SAHM, but I was too chicken to actually quit. So, getting laid off was the push I needed, including a pretty decent severance package, which didn't hurt! A true blessing in disguise!
Getting married in September was by far the best. My wedding day was absolutely an amazing experience, and being married really feels different than before.
Distant second place was traveling to Europe before we were married to visit my dad. We had a lot of fun!
1 - Finding out we were pregnant on our 1st Anniversary after a year of trying and 8 months of treatment!
2 - My sister finally finding an awesome boyfriend that treats her right! (She has had a lot of bad relationships in the past)
Happy New Year to all of you! Looking forward to meet our LO in just about 2 months, and going to try to get some more remodeling done to our home!
A lot of good and bad things happened in 2011 but among the best:
Escrow and closing on our house (after searching for 8 months and a lot of offers, escrows, etc)
Moving into our house in February
Adopting our puppy
DH keeping his job (he's a teacher and tons of people at his school got pink slips, he did not!!!)
Cruising the Bahamas
Finding out that I'm pregnant
DH getting tenure
Plus a variety of traveling, which was so wonderful!
I am looking forward to all that 2012 will bring! Well, maybe not the exhaustion and sleepless nights, but other than that
Where in Georgia are you?? I'm in Augusta!
This was by far the best year I've ever had. My top two were finding out I was pregnant in July which resulted in my other top moments - marrying my husband in August, and celebrating it with our families on December 17.
