My New Year's Resolutions

So, with every new year, comes resolutions we would LIKE to follow through with. Well, I'm DETERMINED to follow through with at LEAST 3 on my list..I know which ones they are, but if I follow through with all of them(wishful thinking) then GO ME! So, here's the list.

1) Continue to keep Reese my #1 (With all the changes in our life, I need to realize she's the reason I do everything and I will continue to always keep her in the first spot in my life. Always.)

2) Change my language. (Now, since I've had Reese, my "sailor mouth" has improved. But, when I get angry, I slip often. So, I'm going to work on my cursing. May seem ridiculous to some people..haha but it's on my list. Which brings me to my next resolution)

3) Controlling my temper. (The only thing I believe I have patience with is Reese, which is a good thing. But I need to get everything else in check and become a more patient person.)

4) Paying off my debt and getting in check the way I want to.

5) Buying a newer vehicle

6) Organizing my house COMPLETELY and getting myself on a set schedule with doing projects and little things

7) Losing 40 to 60 lbs. I WILL DO THIS.

8) Appreciate myself more and realize I am good enough for good things.

This is just the start of it, but believe me, for some reason, I feel like this year will have a large list of to do's..... a new, fresh, clean slated start is needed...

It's been a Whirlwind!

I've been missing for awhile I guess. It's most probably because of all the changes going on in our life! We moved into our new house, I started working, we've been busy preparing for Christmas, Reese is growing, we're just constantly busy! So, first things first.

We moved into our new house and we love it. It's cute, cozy and Reese friendly. Which is good, since she's attempting to walk. She's all over the place! It's like overnight I realized she's grown so much, so quickly! She sits up, stands up, crawls at like 50 mph haha and she's talking more and more everyday. She laughs now too, which is my new favorite sound. Here's a couple of photos from our Christmas card shoot with Kate :)

Now, I've gone back to work, which was REALLY tough at first, I didn't know HOW I'd honestly do it. But, now that I'm almost a month in, going to work is almost like a break for me. ha! It's my time for adult interaction and just kinda time for me to be away from the house. Although I LOVE coming home, don't even doubt that! Reese is doing a lot better as she realizes this wasn't just one week away from mommy, and that it happens every week. She stays with my sister in law Debbie during the time I'm working and she gets A LOT more time with Dre which makes me so happy. They really needed that alone time together without me.

So, other than all those BIG changes, life seems to be going well. Andre and I have gone down a bumpy road lately, but we're realizing as things seem to be falling into place, we're getting back on track. We push each other off to the side quite often when we both get stressed out, but we're working on things and working on keeping each other on our priority list. I'm feeling pretty good about things right now. *sigh* it's been awhile.

So, I'm going to try to keep up on this again. Now, that life is slowing down and we're getting used to everything. So until then :)
