Back from being MIA
Hi Ladies,
I have not been posting since I got my new job (YAY). I have been so busy and focused during the days, I can barely remember my name in the evenings. I missed you all!!! Here are few updates from the past three weeks:
1. Started my job on Sept 6 - Love it! There are challenges, but that's the main reason why I left my last job. I get annoyed when people ask me surprised why I left my last job. I used to work for a Fortune 100 company, but the opportunities were limited, and I decided to join a much smaller company with a startup personality (5 years on the market, 170 employees). I know this was the best decision to make, can people just get that?
2. Just came back from my BM's baby shower, and oh my do I want to have a baby now 
She looked so beautiful and she let me touch her belly when her little girl was kicking and it was amazing. DH and I plan to start TTC late spring next year, possibly get pregnant around July... It's definitely too early to get pregnant now, because I just started this job, but today, I totally heard the inner mommy talking to me
3. My SIL is officially pregnant YAY - you may remember that she lost a baby in April, and we were all very upset, but apparently, the vitamins and other stuff then had to put her on, made her body ready for another one like she is 20 years old (she really is 37). I knew for a while (saw her drinking water when she normally drinks wine), but we decided not to tell anyone until she is 16 weeks. Well, she is 18 weeks now and they could already tell it's going to be a boy So happy for her!!!
4. We were finally able to catch all three kittens that I have been feeding in our backyard. They are off at the clinic to get fixed and ready to be adopted. We will keep one (Teddy Tuxedo), our neighbor is taking the other one, and we have one more to find a home for I am so happy that we were able to catch them. It took three hours to trick them all into the traps... not as easy as you would think. Teddy was not getting fulled till we put a piece of a raw meat in the cage. Harley will love having a new brother Not sure how Ozzy will love it though (our dog)... anyone of you girls had a dog and then adopted a cat?
I think this is it for now So happy to be back on our board!!!

Welcome Back!!
A friend of mine just let a prominent company in the areas to work part time for the government. People ask her all the time why she left, like there is something bad behind her leaving. She gets very frustrated over it too. It is nice to hear you Love you new job.
Great news about your SIL, and I am sure the time will fly until it is your turn.
Post some photos of the kittens when you get the chance.
