New Year

Skipping ahead for a post, I have more to catch up on but I just wanted to post about the new year and show some updated pics of the boys.

 Our years blessings come in the form of two beautiful healthy children. These kids have brought our family so much life, learning and love. Not a moment goes by where we aren't amazed at their wit, charm and random comments that make our life so entertaining. They are our greatest life choice. We are so excited for the new year and all their new firsts and adventures.

 We aren't big on going out for New Years or resolutions. But we are big on lists and that's how things get done at our house. I write them, Jason completes them, ha ha just kidding. But I do make lots of lists and for 2013 I made one of 13 things to do in 2013, not a resolution or empty promise, not specific things but list to keep me responsible to achieve these.

1. When in doubt choose the kids
2. Make better meals-fresher foods
3. Take better care of our home that gets neglected so much
4. Back off online shopping- we do not need more stuff
5. Simplify. Keep cleaning/organizing and removing stuff that isn't necessity.
6. Waste less- money, time, energy
7. More travel- the boys got luggage for Christmas ;)
8. More outdoors- camping, parks, bike rides, mini-golfing, baseball games, etc
9. More date-nights for me and the hubby
10.Actually do Pinterest crafts/recipes
11.Don't sweat the small stuff- I learned from the CT shooting to stop complaining.
12.Go to a photography workshop and expand my learning
13.Start actually saving in our  savings account.

We're starting this list tonight, we turned down a few new years offers and chose to stay home and make a fancy dinner together shrimp scampi- a pinterest recipe. Cheers to a Happy Fresh New Year for you as well, may it be your best year yet.



My baby will soon be 1- happy/sad about it. Makes me want maybe 1 more.

I don't think a parent could be more proud of a child than I am of Teag. He's an excellent big brother, he is fully potty trained and mom's little helper, plus he sings! ha ha

Peek A Boo...his favorite

This little boy melts my heart, he is absolutely beautiful
