New journey!
My hubby and I joined Weight Watchers tonight! For me, I am noticing that my fasting blood glucose level is going up, even if ever so slightly, and I want to get those numbers a little more under control.
I also don't want to go back on meds, so I'm hoping that this will help.
And since G also wants to shed some pounds, he is going to do it with me... which I think is going to be a huge motivator for me!
Starting weight: 184
Goal weight (reasonable): 170
Goal weight (stretch): 160
Wish us luck! 😘

First day of school!
It's funny what worries come up in a single day.
Today we dropped off both kids for school. That's right, BOTH kids.
Today is Courter's first day of daycare. Insert crying emoji here.
And with that came a whole new set of worries.
- Will he be okay?
- Will he take the bottles for his teachers?
- Did I provide enough breastmilk?
- Will they have trouble warming the bottles?
Gah...

Courter - 1 month
Our little guy is a month old - I can hardly believe it!
We are all adjusting well. Penny loves him and always wants to hold him, sit next to him, and tickle him.
It's terrifying, in the sweetest of ways.
Still a little sore from the c-section and still sleeping on the recliner.
Life is good!

A few years ago, we visited my Grandfather up in Young Harris. He has always been one of my favorite people and fills this world with charisma, respect and charm. He looked at each new day with joy and when asked by strangers how he was doing, he would respond "Gettin' better every day!"
Well, we were shooting the breeze and he was talking about how him and his current wife met, and how it was his goal to court her. That stuck with me because I know that was his character.
When it came time to name our son, I was taken back to that conversation.
And that's where Courter came from.
It is my hope that our son will be filled with charisma, respect, and charm just like my grandfather. And that he will love others and be a strong Christian and always look for the joy and good in people.

Happy June!
This promises to be an exciting month!
First, my parents are throwing my cousin and I a joint baby shower this weekend. She is due with her second baby girl a few weeks before us, and being that we are rather close, a joint shower sounded like something right up our alley!
Second, our summer series at church starts this month. I can't wait to get back into some Sunday evening activities and get reconnected with our group!
Third, big things are happening at work! We are getting a new website, my temporary replacement is starting training in a few weeks, we have a new customer service rep starting that same week, and we are in the midst of a huge branding project! That, along with small daily activities makes for busy days an busy weeks. But, it's all worth it!
Fourth, Father's Day is a few short weeks away! I want to do something for G that goes above and beyond, but I'm not exactly sure what that will entail yet... but I do have an idea. :)
Fifth, baby boy!! That's right, sometime towards the end of the month, he will be here! And our lives will never be the same! I, of course, am full of emotions and wonder at what this little boy will be like. We are so excited! He is still measuring big and is moving around nicely! Recently, he has been all up in my ribs and every now and then I wince. Growing a baby is such a interesting/cool experience, and I am so honored that God has allowed me to experience it!
I am in the nesting stage. I have an overwhelming need to be at home getting everything organized! I want to prep all of the baby gear and get it set up in it's place, wash some of the pertinent clothing and get the hospital bag packed. And it will happen... soon!
