She's my everything, the center of my universe! </p> <p>3) Officially becoming a family of 3 with baby girl's arrival and witnessing how wonderful my DH is to our baby girl.

It was a big long term goal we had talked about years ago and I was just so proud of him reaching this huge milestone in his career at 33 years old. </p> <p>2) my little girl has definitely been the highlight of my life and this year was especially fun. We've made so many wonderful mom/baby friends...it's been one of the best years of my life. </p> <p>3) potty training - so awesome </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1312278 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 21:03:08 +0000 LovelyPlum 1312278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2013 was a crazy year for us. There were some good things, though:</p> <p>1. Getting pregnant three times. Though two of them ended in losses, I now have two angel babies, both of whom I love dearly.</p> <p>2. Finding out for the first time that this baby had a heartbeat. I was so relieved I was shaking. Surreal!</p> <p>3. DH started a teacher certification/Masters program in January and graduated two weeks ago! So, so proud of him.</p> <p>Looking forward to see what 2014 brings us!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1312263 Wed, 01 Jan 2014 20:52:35 +0000 littlek 1312263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1.

Had an awesome trip to NYC this summer with DH. It was my 1st time there and we just had so much fun and made so many memories.</p> <p>2. Found out we were pregnant the same day DH officially transferred to a new position at work. (And then in November finding out its a boy!)</p> <p>3. We bought our first and hopefully forever house after several years of saving. </p> <p>So many blessings this year and it's great to read about all the positive things on this thread!! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1310942 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 19:29:13 +0000 lovehoneybee 1310942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've had a rough year, especially the past month or two, so mine aren't very exciting. I'm hoping to make a much better 2014. </p> <p>1) Watched my baby turn into a little person. He's awesome, and has so much personality. I'm grateful for all the time and loss and heartache that it took to get pregnant with him, because I can't imagine having any other child. </p> <p>2) Got my driver's license at the ripe old age of 28. I always lived in cities where I never really needed it, and by the time we got to a stage where I did need it I was terrified of driving. It's so freeing to have it now, though. I was so terrified of driving that I never thought stopped to consider that I might actually enjoy it! I feel silly for having taken so long to do something that most people do as teenagers, but it was a huge fear to conquer for me. </p> <p>3) We had a great family beach trip to NC over the summer. D's family used to take them yearly, and when I was pregnant his Gram decided that we all needed to go, with the wives and grandsons. Last year's was good, this year's was better because E was here. Rachel was completely enamored with E and it shows in every picture I took of them together. MIL said that he brought SO much joy to the end of her life. She passed away a few weeks ago and I'm so grateful that she had that time with the family and that we had that time with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1310924 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 19:17:40 +0000 maybebaby 1310924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great thread :)</p> <p>In chronological order:<br /> 1) Graduated with my masters in art history.<br /> 2) Gave birth to my son, best moment of my life.<br /> 3) Started work at an amazing museum.</p> <p>This was hands down the best year of my life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1310913 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 19:12:02 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1310913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. Our little girl was born in November. Best. Thing. Ever.</p> <p>2. We were approved for adoption. (Though we found out we were pregnant the week after, so we had to put the adoption on hold for a year - hopefully that will be a best thing for 2014!)</p> <p>3. My 3 best girlfriends from college came to town and teamed up with my best friend to throw a baby shower for me. I felt so loved! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1310893 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 18:57:48 +0000 mrs.lord 1310893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. got pregnant with our first child<br /> 2. my mom beat stage 3 breast cancer!<br /> 3. fell more in love with my husband </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013/page/2#post-1310835 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 17:52:57 +0000 tigger223 1310835@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1.

Watching LO grow in to a little person. He has really transformed from a baby into an independent little boy and I am just loving watching him develop and change. </p> <p>2. Really starting to feel confident in my current position at work. I took my job only a few months before I got pregnant and really started to feel like the work was "mine" after returning from maternity leave. </p> <p>3. Branching out and making many new friends through LO. I tend to be somewhat shy when it comes to making new friends but really developed a nice community this year!</p> <p>I am looking forward to lots of (hopefully!) positive changes in 2014!</p> <p>Happy New Year! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013#post-1310725 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 16:26:17 +0000 bisous 1310725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. Had my daughter! (Best thing to ever happen in my LIFE!)<br /> 2. Babymooned in Disney World<br /> 3. Had 12 amazing summer weeks off with my little one...I don't take that time for granted at all! Such a special blessing to have that time with her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/name-the-3-best-things-to-happen-to-you-in-2013#post-1310724 Tue, 31 Dec 2013 16:25:36 +0000 Greentea 1310724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. Gave birth to amazing baby! Found out I am capable of so much more than I ever imagined, feel more love than I ever imagined, and grew closer to DH.<br /> 2. Did a lot of soul searching and let go of some unhealthy relationships. Difficult but empowering.<br /> 3.
