Tell me something awesome.
Brag about yourself, about your kids, about your So, or about your fabulous single life.
Brag about your work, your home, your hobbies, or your Netflix queue.
Brag about your hair, your butt, your boobs, or your wardrobe.
Find something. Brag about it.

I'm on day 9 of my whole30. It's going surprisingly well this time around.
But my brag is about my kids! They have eaten every single whole30 meal that I have served them. (I didn't serve them my chipotle turkey and sweet potato chili, it was waaaaay to spicy.) They have even eaten soup twice, which had always been a hard no from E (though P loves her some soup.) I'm really proud of them.

The 2 older kids smiled for their picture with F. And F actually cooperated for most of the pictures.
Poof

I'm really good at my job. Not everything I make is a work of art because cost and speed. But...when someone gives me artistic license and is willing to pay for it, it always comes out nice. I get thank you notes and everything. It gives me joy.
And now that I'm older and more willing/able to orchestrate some of the random stuff that's not technically "my responsibility," taking that stuff on has made things run more smoothly. I feel like a real asset.

I'm on Day 38 of my BBM challenge and I haven't skipped a single workout. I've had to double up a couple times, but I've done them all and this is unheard of for me. I'm not an exerciser.

I’m feeling so accomplished today. I rearranged the little girls room to get their new-to-us antique beds put together so we can move them soon. I took apart then moved the spare queen bed from the little girls’ room and set it up in R’s room and put together both twin beds in their room - all while wrangling 3 kids and dinner cooking. Just waiting on another bedrail and their comforters to be delivered then we can try it out.

I married a dude who got me chocolate cake tonight. Chocolate lava cake, still warm. From a restaurant in town.
When he was leaving to run an errand as I was putting H down, I said, "I'm still hungry so feel free..."
"...to get chocolate cake?" he interrupted.
I laughed.
Swoon.

My dad put up two gates for me today that I've been wishing for for a year. Tonight I had my class at church and he made me leave the house early and gave me money to get myself dinner on the way. He's seriously the best.

In case you don't read randoms, MH got a huge promotion that will allow us to move back to my hometown. We've been working on securing a job that will get us there since January. Congrats!! |

Last night was night 3 of weaning, night 2 of me putting her to bed without the boob (J did the first night while I was out of the house). Nugget cried for about 2 minutes when I told her milky was all gone, and then we read "big book", ie my Alice in Wonderland pop-up book that she is obsessed with, then she asked for her water cup and we snuggled while she sipped water, and read a few more books and then she went to bed without a fuss. I was expecting similar drama to the night before's 20+ minute wailing and falling to sleep in my arms, and it was the exact opposite!

1. I'm really proud of myself as a new dog trainer. My coworker is, too, and she says she brags about me to all her other trainer friends because I've been able to do so much with my senior dog, when most other people would write off a senior dog as untrainable/not worth their time.
2. Bragging about MH who is so much more on-board with us getting a working dog to add to the family. And he wants an active role in new dog's training, too!

This isn't really a brag but something I'm excited about. Canada just changed some of its rules on citizenship, making my husband eligible to apply now instead of in the new year. We're submitting the application tomorrow and he's so excited to become Canadian 😄
