My New Year's Resolutions for 2013

1. Posture — Since I have had Hayden my posture has got worse and worse it seems the older and HEAVIER she gets. Now it is to the point where I can touch the center of my spine and it is sore and never goes away. My husband showed me some good exercises to strengthen my back and improve my posture. Then he told me a good rule of thumb “Every time you walk through a door way, pop up.”
2. Myself — I think next to “lose weight” this is probably the most popular. It is so hard to do when you have a child because your life becomes fully centered on them and you easily lose sight of yourself. So, this year I am going to start putting more effort into everything; from the way I dress to my hair to my fingernails & toenails to shaving my legs more ;) My hubby can vouch for that one… I have not yet and I refuse to let myself fall into the typical “mom” look. I’m getting MILF-mode into full gear. hahaha (that’s a joke… for the most part.)
3. Get my boobies back — Breastfeeding. While it is the #1 best nourishment you can give your child for the first year, after the first year they no longer NEED it. It’s solely for comfort after that. With that being said, I plan to be finished with breastfeeding shortly after my daughter turns one year old in March. My boobs have pretty much been off limits since I had the baby so I’m sure my husband will appreciate this resolution as well. (If you said “EW! Gross!” to that. You’ll understand one day… and grow up! ha!)
4. Not get pregnant — Fight the baby fever! I must remember what having a newborn was like PLUS having to deal with the handful I already have! My sister-in-law will be having her baby in April. I can get it all out then!
5. Go on a family trip — Just the 3 of us. To anywhere we’ve never been (or at least anywhere I’ve ever been. Keith has been way more places than I have!)

These are my fun resolutions. There are, of course, the staple resolutions such as paying of debt, saving money, work out more, etc. that everyone has but those pretty much go without saying. 

I hope everyone has a wonderful fantastic New Years Eve and let’s bring it in right! That means try to not drink too much champagne, pass out, and miss the ball drop ;) oooh the memories…

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
