new year, new life

2010 has nearly come to an end and i can't help but think about the changes i want to make for 2011. i'm not huge on the whole resolution hype, but i do think it gives everyone a good time to start making some changes.

i don't know that 2011 will be able to top my 2010 for all-time favourite years...2010 was a big year for us. the highlight was obviously the birth of kingston. my life feels so much more purposeful as a mom. i knew from a very early age that i wanted children and now that i am a mom i feel like children are my passion in life.

are you a big resolution person?

these are the things i want 2011 to bring...

1. i want to go back to school to obtain my ECE.
2. i want to lose the last of my flabbiness from being pregnant. actually, it's not necessarily weight i want to lose as i weigh less now than i did before i was pregnant, but i need to tighten and tone a whole lot of areas!
   
3. i want to spend as much time as possible doing family things. i want kingston to feel loved and nurtured...that is the absolute most important thing.
4. i want to finish our living room (hang the television, reface the fireplace, get an area rug, get an upholstered ottoman to hide kinston's tacky (super fun) toys).
5. i want to frame and hang pictures of our family and friends.
6. i want to expand our family.

i am excited to see what the future holds for me. i know that if i focus my attention on the things i need to, things will only get better.

i feel so blessed to have the life i do and can't wait to see how much better it gets.
