Here's to another new year!

Well, here we are again.  It's New Year's 2012.  I've decided to make monthly resolutions or goals rather than yearly ones.  I think this might just make things more doable.  So here's my list:

January- eat cleaner and try to blog at least 5 days out of the wee

February- drink 8 cups of water every day

March- eat fruit for dessert

April- pay someone a compliment every day

May-- eat a healthy breakfast

June- Skip secos and make Vinnie's quilt

July- Eat more veggies

August- meditate and can

September- stop negative talk

October- no red meat

November- no fast food

December- who knows!

Other goals are to read more and create more DIY things.  Oh, and knit more, too!!

So, tomorrow I'm going grocery shopping and loading up on healthy foods.  I'm going to try going gluten-free for the month and see if I feel any different.  I've been so sluggish and tired all the time.  I hope it helps.

Amber and Justin came home for Christmas.  They were expected to get home on Christmas day but they surprised me on Friday night!!  Everyone else knew they were coming earlier but me!!  It was such a great surprise.  We ate, played lots of games, went out to dinner and just enjoyed being together.  They left yesterday morning and man, is the house quiet.  Too quiet.  Kelsey and Vinnie are here- thank goodness.  I can't imagine how quiet it would be if they weren't!!!  Speaking of Vinnie.....I know his arrival wasn't under the ideal circumstances, but I can't even expain how much I love that little guy!!  To be a part of his life every day is an absolute dream come true.  I get to see him at his best and his worst.  He hasn't been the easiest baby- a little colicky but Kay's doing a great job with him.  She's patient and not afraid to ask for help when she's not sure of something.  He's settling into a routine which is great.  I love coming home from work and having him give me a big toothless smile!  Puts everything in perspective!! 
Ok.  That's it for today!!  Day #1!!!
