^ I think you are doing a great job for your age. Outstanding!!!
Moving the goal post a bit to target #3mil total NW excluding kids education.
It worked! and as you know I love table formats
If you are targeting $3mil excluding kids education I would separate 529s and other designated accounts for that purpose with their own subtotals. Is there a target for college savings?
Great job. Stay the course. This to shall pass. Only one piece of advice on the equities, stay away from the individual stocks and go with ETF's. Maybe have a small play fund for a few individuals. Most of the successful RE folks on here will tell you about their failures in individual stocks. I have a few. I have been moving to almost exclusively market wide ETF's. SPY, VTI, etc... Once again, great job.

Will grow the SPY bucket so individual positions look like play money [emoji383].
BigDawg, come on my friend . Lots of people retire investing in individual stocks. I have done this.
Now you want to be smart as in all things. Know what you own, diversify, do your homework, etc.
Let's face it, ETFs are relatively new. Retirement is not.
Heh, heh, you've already noticed that the "second million" is always easier than the first. Congratulations on your steady progress.
IIRC, I retired with considerably LESS than your current stash, though that was in 2005. Thankfully, my stash has grown as well - obviously through growth and not through additions.
Keep up the great progress. Perhaps it's time to set a (very) tentative Early Retirement date but YMMV.
