Twenty- Eight

How is it possible that I am 28 years old already. I feel like it was just yesterday that I was in college... but it's been six freakin' years! Damn...

Yep, that's me in the pink shirt with the "blondish" hair

With that said, I have been itching to write my first non "baby milestone" related post. I want to memorialize 28 goals to complete before my 29th birthday...

 I should be able to get these done in the next 11 months with an infant... right? ;) Gotta love the challenge. Having goals, accomplishing them and keeping motivated will make me a better Mommy and Wife.

1. Lose 26 pounds (goal: college graduation weight- a girl can dream, right?)
2. Run a 5K in under 28 minutes
3. Complete another half marathon or the Broad Street Run in Philly
4. Take a weekend trip with my little family
5. Get a promotion and become a leader within my company
6. Pass the PHR Exam (Professional in Human Resources)
7. Go to a professional sports game (preferably the Phils, Eagles or O's)
8. Open 529 College Savings Plan for Colin Bennett
9. Make at least one (prefferably 3-5) extra student loan payment on each of our student loans
