Miss Molly

Once again I have to brag about my wonderful friend and photographer Molly Long. She just did Gwen's 9 month pictures, and I'm in love with ALL of them. Here's a few of my favs. Please check out her website http://www.mollylongphotography.com/ or find her on facebook!









Resolution Time!

I would like to apologize for my lack of blogging lately. Now that Gwen is mobile, it's a lot harder to catch a few minutes to sit down and write. Back in the day, when she was stationary, she would sit on the floor among a vast array of toys and just watch mommy with the computer. Now that she is borderline WALKING, yes I said WALKING, it's not as easy. Also with my busy Applebee's schedule, I'm working at night, and have been closing lately so by the time I walk through the door after midnight, I don't have many creative juices flowing. The only thought in my mind is.... bed, now, period.

Well on to the point. Now that it is officially 2011, I would like to set some resolutions. I've thought long and hard about my goals for the year, and would like to accomplish a few (at least) if not all of them. So here it goes...

1. Blog more, at least once a week.
2. Walk, go to the park and spend as much time outdoors as possible (when it gets warmer)
3. Stay (get) in shape. Eat healthier.
4. Take a vacation with the hubs, somewhere, anywhere. This year!


I'm also reading more, thanks to my new kindle, which I am in LOVE with. Best invention EVER! Another goal, organize, organize, organize this house. With Gwen's 1st birthday quickly approaching, we need as much room as possible for the overwhelming stack of toys and clothes I'm sure she will be receiving. If Christmas was any indication, we're in big trouble. I would also like to make it a priority to spend more quality time with Cody. We work opposite schedules, and don't get a lot of time together. We knew that would be a sacrifice we would be making when I left my day job and went back to work in the evenings. But doing things this way has kept our baby girl out of daycare, and given me the opportunity to spend much more time with her. Which is totally worth it, but I would like to make it a point to spend at least one night every few weeks with only Cody. Date night!

Well there you have it folks, Some of the things I'm going to attempt to tackle in 2011. What are your resolutions?
