2012

For New Years Eve we headed over to some friends house for dinner and games. We were back home by 8:30 and went to bed around 11:00. Pretty exciting I know. We did have some Sparkling Cider though so that was festive. Mark and I were talking about 2011 and what were our favorite things/accomplishments. I would say getting pregnant and potty training Jared top the list. Those alone made it a good year. It has also been super fun to watch Jared grow/develop all year too. It is amazing all the things he learned in one short year.

December 2011

 I have been thinking about resolutions for the past few weeks and it occurred to me that I would be better off making my resolutions in June when I no longer had a newborn.  I could easily make some and keep them for 3 weeks but it seems pointless.  For now my resolution for 2012 is to keep life simple. I need to not take on too many things and not put my expectations too high. 
 For the next few weeks I am going to focus on reading books/articles about having a newborn again and mentally preparing myself for the changes to come.  As I was filling out the monthly calender for January it was really fun to write in Lydia's arrival, my last two doctor's appointments, and my Mom's arrival.  Only 21 days!
