A couple of NEW WOW moments.
Hey,
I just wanted to share 2 wow moments. Well, earlier in the week when my 5 year old son came back from his dad's..he ran to me and gave me a hug. He was able to wrap his arms all the way around my waist. That felt SO good. This morning as I am getting ready for an event at Jordan Valley Park, I could NOT find a pair of jeans that were NOT baggy on me. Frustrating but nice in the same breath. All of my 12's are baggy on me. So, I am probably in 10's now (which I don't have). I don't know what to do because I don't want to go buy a bunch of new things that will not fit in a month or so. You know? But anyway those were 2 wow moments I wanted to share. Incase no one remembered, July 7th was my wedding. My first wow moment was going from an 18W to a 14 wedding dress. Very exciting.

Hi Chelle~
What's up? I don't believe we have ever sent anything to each other before on here. 
I am glad to have a new buddy to send messages to. Yeah, it has been a HUGE accomplishment but frustrating cause I DO NOT want to wear the clothes I was wearing before surgery because they are TOO BIG and make me look dumpy. I don't like baggy clothes. I felt dumpy wearing them when I was huge. It is true, what you wear makes your mood. I feel MUCHO better wearing the clothes I did LONG before I got pregnant with my son, Noah. But you know, the most important moment to me was Noah being able to wrap his arms around my waist (and he still has room even when his arms are around my waist) when he hugs me now. And I about 
when he came from from his 2 week visit from his dad's and he took one look at me & said, "mommy grrrr why did your tummy get smaller when I was gone?" "I wanted to see it get smaller." That feels so good to hear and also makes me feel good too...because even when I was 206 he told me how beautiful I was. I think he is trying to get used to the "new" mommy now, but he is reaping the benefits as well. I am more playful and happy and well you know kids...they are good when it comes to sensing things. In 11 days he starts his first day of Kindergarten. I will DEFINATELY need prayers for that. Noah is so intelligent for his age and well behaved..well mannered..everything so I know he will succeed and enjoy it. I guess it's one of those "mommy bittersweet milestones". He's getting to be independent but he still LOVES cuddling with his momma..so that feels good too. I know I can't be sad in his presence when he begins school cause it will make things hard on him...but I just know I will be home balling all day. I am getting all teary eyed now just thinking about it. I appreciate what everyone has said on here and such quick responses to questions/comments/concerns that I have had. I am so grateful that we have this site.
