This Week's Proud Moments

Noah is proud of: learning to write his name. He has the O and H down great. Nevermind that they are in the wrong order.

Anna is proud of: Basically potty training herself one day at a time. Nevermind that sometimes she goes through the whole routine of taking off her pants, her diaper, backing onto the potty, grabbing a book to read, and then only tooting. That's it. Show's over. Warrants a heartfelt giggle from me every time.

I am proud of: Revisiting my New Year's goals and recommitting to the one about exercise and diet. This week I have exercised every day. I am also trying again to be very intentional about what I eat. Watching portion size and eating slower. And guzzling a glass of water before every meal.

Josh is proud of: After waking up late for work Tuesday morning, showering, shaving, dressing, packing, and getting out the door in 12 minutes! He is also proud of locking in a great new interest rate for our mortgage - 4.5%. I'm pretty proud of his watchdog skills on that one, too.

  1. i'm with you on the diet and exercise issue. This is the biggest I have ever been even including when I was pregnant with Beka. Not a good thing or a good feeling. I used to be an exercise fanatic. Where did that "me" go? Oh, well. Not willing to give up quite yet.

  2. Proud of you for your recommitment.
    I have set up the TV you gave me in the living room and have my
    exercise Dvds and weights all there just waiting for me. I started yesterday and was trying to talk myself into getting on it
    today. Reading your blog will help
    to motivate me. Thanks for the TV.
