Cheers to 2012

Ok so I couldnt come up with a very original title...shoot me! To be honest if I had my way I would not be starting off the new year at work ( with a crappy assignment, contracting and such) but hey you do what you gotta do and they say as night weekenders we gotta work all the holidays so here I am. At 0400 things have finally calmed down so here I am taking a second to blog. To say I have neglected my blog would be the understatement of the year. I had good intentions after getting preggo with baby #2 of weekly posts etc but the truth is life just got in the way! Im not really "sorry" life got in the way of blogging I just hate that I dont have a good record of the last few months. I didnt start this blog till the end of my pregnancy with Will so I guess the boys boy have an even slate this way lol.
So anyhow Cheers the 2012. 2011 was a good year but I am so looking forward to what 2012 has in store for my little family. Resolution wise I guess I havent really thought that far ahead. If I had to name a few now I would say that I would like to blog more-atleast once a week maybe? I know it wont be till summer but i will want to shed the baby weight. I believe at my last preggo post i was only register a +3 on the weight scale, well that number has DRASTICALLY changed lol. Lets just say that this month I am hoping to see a low number on the scale bc the last two visits have not been so pretty :) But hey its all worth it ( and am I really dumb enough to think that all the coke products and crap food wouldnt catch up with me???) and my most important resolution will be to document my family in photos more this year. So get ready for picture overload. Since becoming preggo I have been hardcore into my photography mainly due to the fact that my maternity leave will pretty much be unpaid so luckily taking pics has provided me a way to still support the fam, but with that being said I feel like I have missed out on documenting so many fun things that have happened either bc i was away on a shoot or bc I was just too burned out to get my camera out when it mattered! So 2012 will be well documented!!! Seeing as how i no longer have anyone to watch the kids for a few hrs during the week and I work weekends I wont be doing as many photo sessions either so this should help too!
So I guess I am already doing good with one resolution (blogging hehe) but not so great with another (pics) I dont have a pic to document my new years eve but I did want to jot the memory down bc it was so much fun. New Years Eve was a gorgeous day in Memphis. The weather was fantastic. So after sleeping in the family went to the grocery store to stock up on goods ( to help with the eating crap food part) and after that we came back home. I of course went to bed to get ready for a night of work while the boys played. Well after sleeping great for a change I woke up to a really quiet house. I assumed the boys had left but when I walked into the living area I saw that they were out back playing. Nothing crazing just building dirt tracks for all of Wills cars. So we all just hung out in the backyard for the rest of the afternoon. It was so peaceful and fun. We even cleaned a few of the leaves up but we still have a long way to go on that project. After paying outside me and Will came in to lay down for another little cat nap while daddy cooked dinner. We had yummy steak and veggies. And then it was time for work. I love peaceful days like this with family since we dont get them that oftern bc of our crazy work schedules.
So I hope everyone out there had a WONDERFUL New Years and maybe come tuesday I will post another blog hehe!!
