1. Lose my remaining baby weight.
2. Run a 5k.
3. Not die when I compete in the warrior dash this summer.
4. Really, truly organize my house and do some serious purging.
5. Head back to the RE to think about unfreezing some of D's siblings. ( maybe, if I don't chicken out.)
To have a healthy and happy family
To do my best to be a great mom and wife
Do my absolute hardest in school and work my way to becoming a rn
keep up with printing pictures for frames and scrapbooks
Most important, remember everyday is special and not take anything for granted
1-Graduate Grad school!

3- Make it through Baptism without losing it (late Jan)
4- pay off more debt, and get a head on car payments
5- List house to move in October
6- FAMILY vacation (just us 4)-- Jersey is booked already with inlaws and my cruise too (w/o DH or kids)
7- Hit at least 10 National Parks (road trip vacation?) (or I can cheat and get 4 stamps in Hyde Park alone;) )
1. To continue to raise a happy and healthy little boy.
2. Keep off the weight that I have lost.
3. Start working out
4. Start selling something like Arbonne or Tastefully Simple
5. Write a book about my childhood (EEEEKKKK)
6. To spend some quality time with my husband and son
7. To hopefully sell our house and buy a bigger house.
8. To take care of myself emotionally and relax more.
Goals:
1. Finish my doctorate program (1 class left..woohoo).
2. Start back running and do at least one 10k.
3. Try to keep organized...been doing a good job with it but need to stick with it.
Hopes/wishes:
1. That my baby girl's hip Forms properly and no additional surgery is needed. For those who don't know, she has hip dysplasia and has already undergone 6 months of treatment including harness, bracing, and casting. We won't have a solid idea if it all worked until shes closer to 2 or 3!
1. potty train the toddler. like soon- before the baby comes!
2. have a healthy/ happy baby
3. keep the toddler healthy and happy
4. spend more time alone with DH (date nights, etc). we have been horrible about this lately.
5. get back in shape post baby
1. lose weight. is it still baby weight if he's 3?? lol
2. save $ save $ save $. (that's the purpose of our recent move in with family...)
3. remember to give myself more "ME" time... i've been trying lately, i often forget myself.
Hey, can my weight be "baby weight" too even though said baby is going to be 20 in May? LOL
I'd like to have all our "house" issues settled by the end of 2012.
Travel more.
Decide if I'm going to try and get my Masters this year and if so, what in.
Try to make my role here at HHV more than just the gal that "sets up and takes down events".
Hopefully list our house in late 2012 to sell and move into our dream home in 2013.
Continue to raise a happy and healthy little girl
Maybe think about getting pregnant again, we want them clue in age
Be happy with where I am in my life, nice house, great husband, beautiful daughter and a loving family.
First and foremost to deliver a healthy baby.
Focus on what's most important in my life - my husband and our child. I tend to focus more on negativity in our lives, rather than the wonderful and is something that I really need to work on.
Adjust into our lives as a family of three - I can't wait!
1. That my daughter remains happy and healthy and that DH and I continue to be each other's best friend through thick & thin.
2. Get back some "me" time. Run regularly again, get back into yoga, get out for drinks with friends here and there. Being a mom is the most amazing thing I've ever done in my life, but I've been so committed to it that I haven't done much for myself in quite a while.
3. That DH gets promoted/moved to a better unit where he's more fulfilled and makes more money, which would make us more financially stable and would lead to...
4. Getting knocked up with #2.
5. To finally get some of my writing published. I've dragged ass on sending out my freelance pitches for long enough!
