Some things that I am proud of in the past few days are…
Going skiing- Not only was it a FREEZING day but I strained my Achilles tendon and knee after a fall. I am proud that I not only continued with the day, but didn't complain (too much). My entire family is full of skiers/snowboarders and Mike is incredibly good. (Seriously, he needs to quit being so good at so many things!) I on the other hand have zero coordination and skiing isn’t my most favorite way to spend the day. The fam drags me up once a year for our annual ski weekend, which is coming up the first week of March, but this past weekend my cute 13 year old cousins were in from California, so I braved the cold and windy day to spend some time with them. While I am not very good and I fall A LOT, I still stuck with it and am glad my bratty ways and pouty attitude have been left in my teenage years.
Integrating color into my wardrobe- I tend to only buy black, white and neutral colored clothing. This weekend after a difficult and painful test (I will get to this in a second), I felt I needed some retail therapy. I ended up with 4 colorful things, and only two things that were white or grey. Now if only I knew what to pair them with to make them look stylish!

Nordstrom BP ($11.00!)
Express. This probably shouldn't count since I also have this in black and white. Oh well, when you love something, buy three. :)

My HSG test- I finally underwent the dreaded HSG test, which is where they insert a catheter type tube into your uterus and inject contrast to see if your fallopian tubes are blocked and if there are any other abnormalities. It was incredibly painful and I am BEYOND BEYOND BEYOND thankful and grateful that Annie was there to hold my hand throughout the entire procedure. She really is an incredible friend and I feel so blessed to have her in my life.

There are two reasons why I am proud of this. First I am proud I underwent the test in the first place because it is really painful. Second, I didn’t get the best results but I am proud that I haven’t jumped to too many conclusions yet and have been able to stay as calm as possible until I get a chance to go over the results with Dr. Terry. I will keep you updated on what he says at our baby blog http://www.babyricci.blogspot.com/
Miss Whitney- Finally, I am really proud of my BFF Whitney. She has signed up to run the Ogden Half Marathon to fight , something she has always wanted to do! She is running to support The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and I can’t wait to cheer her on at the finish line. Here is her personal page if you want to check her out or if you want to donate to her cause!
