The Incredible Shrinking Becky!

Oct 25

Posted by Becky in Our Family | 3 Comments


Becky has been giving me a hard time about never posting anything to OUR blog when it was MY idea in the first place. I have a feeling she will stop giving me a hard time about it after this post!

She is way to modest to ever make a big deal about it, but I would like everybody to know that Becky has lost over 56 pounds on her Weight Watchers program! She realized the other day, that 56 pounds is like an entire Kona! And that 56 pounds doesn’t even count the weight she lost between the time Felicity was born and she joined Weight Watchers. I’m not sure exactly what that number is, but the bottom line is that she’s doing fantastic and it’s all been in the last 13 months or so.

Those of you who know Weight Watchers know you have to set a goal weight to shoot for that is within your healthy body mass index range for your height. Becky was smart, she set her goal for the upper end of that range, and therefore has already become a lifetime weight watchers member even though she still has a couple more pounds to lose to reach her personal goal. And because she’s a lifetime member, she can go to the meetings and continue to lose weight for free! I like that part!

Make sure you call her or email her and tell her how great she looks. She deserves some recognition for all of her dedication and persistence. I know I am certainly proud of her!

Whoa…We’re Still Here

Yikes, it’s been a long while since we’ve posted anything. Thank you to our loyal visitors who keep reminding us of that fact! :) Just kidding.

One of the big highlighst of the past few months has been Felicity’s 1st birthday. She turned 1 on September 17 and already thinks of herself as a very advanced toddler…including some of the “terrible twos” tantrums.

Of course every day has some new milestone or development for Felicity. So by my estimation, we’re only about 60 milestones behind on this blog! I’ll try to hit a few of the cutest and perhaps biggest developments of the last couple months.

I think Becky has written about teaching Felicity a little sign language. She is getting good at “more”, “please”, “doggie”, “milk”, “nap”, “eat”, “drink” and that’s about all I can think of right now. She’s also mastered saying (not signing) Daddy, Mama, Hi and she’s working on matching our inflection for about a dozen other words/phrases that we say even if she hasn’t mastered the words yet.

She is of course practically running around the house now, she loves her books and frequently dissappears into her room for long periods at a time reading by herself! And Kona has become one of her best friends, she loves hugging her and chasing her to grab her little stump of a tail. Both Kona and Hoover are doing very well putting up with Felicity’s tail grabbing, pinching and sitting on their paws/head/etc.

I think that at least gets you somewhat caught up on Felicity. As always, we’ll try to make more regular posts to keep everyone up to date.
