What Are You Happy About This Week?
We *** a lot. So let's brag some & talk about stuff that we're happy about this week!
I'm happy that I'm going on vacation in 15 days. I'm happy that I'm running consistently again. I'm happy that DH's meds have kicked in again!
Re: What Are You Happy About This Week?
I'm happy DH and I had an honest talk the other night.
I'm happy that I've been kicking ass at work the last couple weeks with some big things that came through.
I'm happy that DH and I are in a really good place even with the unemployment and financial stress.
I'm happy that I've done some rescue work lately.
I'm happy we have our 2nd childbirth class tonight and that DH emjoys them too.
I'm happy my IL's moved down here. It has been so helpful to have them come sit at our house when we have installers there, so we don't have to take off of work.
I'm happy my BFF will be in town this weekend.
We got our FTHB credit a lot faster than we thought, and were able to pay down some of our cc's, buy a new fridge, get totally caught up on all bills, and even stash some away while buying a few needed items for the house we've been holding off on for $ reasons.
I got a new fridge!!! And it doesn't pee on the floor every 3 days! It was on sale, cheaper than we budgeted, and I got everything I wanted without having to sacrifice for price.
We've finally solidified a routine for the boys this week. Unfortunately it includes them sleeping in different rooms, but for now it works best. We're still going to decorate "their" room, since I'd like to eventually have them play in there instead of the living room.
I've been doing some informal "schoolwork" with Jeffery, and it amazes me how much he's picking up! He already knows his alphabet, letter sounds, most colors, shapes, and we're starting on adding and subtracting. He's even picking up more signs as I do them with Jonathan, so I'm planning on picking up a book for a refresher. I'm considering pulling out our Rosetta Stone Italian CD's and teaching him more Italian. I figure take advantage of it while he's interested in learning!
Thanks for the idea CD! That just made me feel a lot better about my day/week!

I"m happy I brought a backup lunch today since the wings in the cafeteria did not look good today.
I'm really happy about all the "new" clothes I have now that my old too small stuff fits again.
My Ovulation Chart
I am happy that Wyatt is such a happy baby and loves going to "school" every day. It makes it a little easier to leave him knowing that he has fun and that the lady who watches him is so great with him!
I am happy that I am able to pump enough milk each day for the bottles Wyatt needs for day care the next day. I only had to break into my freezer stash to fill one bottle the 1st day I went back to work.
I am happy that I now weigh 10lbs less than I did before I got PG.
I am happy that my birthday is next weekend and DH will be taking me (and Wyatt) out to dinner to celebrate. We haven't eaten out in forever since it really isn't in the budget so this will be a nice treat!
Go Mama!
"My 101 List - Updating asap, I swear!
Thanks! I am totally shocked since I am eating a ton more since I am breastfeeding. Only thing that is bad is that a bunch of my clothes no longer fit and we really don't have it in the budget right now for me to buy a bunch of new stuff.
Been there, actually kinda AM there. I bounced back much faster with #1 than #2, so most of my clothes are still a bit small. I have some transitional clothes I bought after #1, but it was just to last me until I could lose the weight, so it's limited. I'm screwed long term, lol.
And I've noticed a MAJOR difference since Jonathan weaned. Though I felt I was eating more, and at times I was, it really uses up the calories! I can't eat nearly what I was then, and he wasn't even that great of an eater!

This is a very happy week for us. DD's 2nd birthday was yesterday and her birthday party is this weekend
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?
BFP-2/25/11; 8 Wk U/S-3/25/11-No HB, measured 6.5 wks; D&C
K and K I am totally Jealous of you yet proud of you at the same time. I am still exclusively breastfeeding and pumping at work but I am 12 lbs heavier than pre pregnancy. I chalk it up to how hot it has been this summer and I have not been able to be as active as I want to with DS. le sigh.
I'm happy that Michael is down to 1 wakeup at night, so I have more energy to complete things I need to do.
I'm happy that I finished a huge work project last night.
I'm happy that Michael's first cold was only a few days long.
This! I am happy I got a big promotion at work and an even bigger raise to go along with it. I'm even happier that my business has been insane lately with lots of exciting things coming up... even though it means I barely have time for sleep when I'm home.
I'm happy DH isn't stressed and upset about still being unemployed, and so good about helping me with my business.
I'm happy we got back to reno'ing our guest bathroom last weekend and will be almost finished this weekend!
I'm happy there's a thunderstorm right now.
I'm happy about our vacation in October!!! Only two months to go!
I've been receiving a lot of praise at work from my boss, coworkers, and the director which has definitely been a boost to my self-esteem
.
DH and I have been going to the gym several times a week, and I'm proud of myself for sticking with it (this is a girl who hates exercising so it's a miracle lol).
