For the ladies doing StrongLifts, what are your PR's?

My wife and I are doing StrongLifts together. We use a power rack at home with olympic barbells and plates. Yes, she's a cool lady!
We use fractional plates and she is progressively adding 2 - 2.5 lbs each time we lift (rather than the 5 lbs the program recommends). I'm curious about what is considered "heavy lifting" for a lady and how much you lifted before the weight became very challenging.
To provide some comparisons, please post your height, weight and personal record for squat, bench press, barbell row, overhead press and deadlift.
