What are your New Year's Resolutions?

I have many, but I am starting one at a time!  Here are a few:

1) Give up pop...even if I do only drink diet pop :)

2) Lose 20 pounds.

3) Be more organized with my cleaning routines at home.

4) Try one new recipe each week!  This is the one I'm looking forward to! 

Re: What are your New Year's Resolutions?

  • Lose the 20 pounds I put on in 2009

    Get pregnant and if not take a really nice vacation and drink like a fish!  :)

  • 1) Pray more, worry less.

    2) Focus on what we have, not what I want. 

    3) Cook more.

    4) Spend less time online (sorry, girls!)

  • 1. Get pregnant with a healthy pregnancy - Is that bad to have as a resolution?? :)

    2. Exercise more - I could stand to lose the 15lbs I still have from having Noah.  DH and I have been to the gym twice in the last week, so we're off to a good start!

    3.  Drink less pop - Cherry coke is my downfall.  I will decrease it significantly once #1 happens, and giving it up will help #2...but it's so hard!

  • 1) fit in consistant exercise.  Niko has been loving these walk away the pounds videos and I feel so good now that I've been doing them every day (on my break).  Somehow need to fit it in with my work schedule.

    2) Make healthy, complete dinners every day for my family.  I've struggled with this since I'm getting used to a full time job.

    3) Sign Niko up for some fun activities, like soccer!  

    4) Hopefully get pregnant :)

  • I stole this one from someone on here last year, and it worked out really well so I'm going to do it again in 2010:  donate at least 365 items.
  • 1) Get into a better gym/diet routine.

    2) Better laundry schedule

    3) Be more punctual.  I am ALWAYS late - for everything!

  • 1) Pay down what little debt we have left

    2) Find a more flexible job

    3) Lose the baby weight

    DS #1 born January 2010. DS #2 due June 2014.

  • 1) Get pregnant finally!

    2) Find a differnt job

    3) diet and lose 10-20% of my weight

    4) be on time to work at least 4 of 5 days...right now I'm lucky to be on time once a week! Part of that is because I just hate my job and I can't stand coming here every day and the other part is just that I am always late.

    6/28/10: Lost our sweet baby Addyston at 18wk 1day to pPROM 7/24/11: Michael William born at 24wk 2d due to IC after an emergent cerclage at 18wks, 4wk home BR and 2 weeks hospital BR.

  • 1) Get back into running.

    2) Manage my money better.

    Happy New Year everyone!

  • 1) Let go of the past and move on.

    2) Be the best mom I can be.

    3) Graduate.

    4) Get a job.

  • 1) Pay off medical bills from 2009 / re-organize our finances

    2) Decide what I want to do with my life and actually do it.

    3) Get re-organized.  I used to be super-anal about everything and now I'm the total opposite.  My house is a wreck, my life is always chaos and it's wearing on me.  I need to find a happy medium.

    4) Add baby #2 to our family.

    5) Lose some (or a lot of) weight.

  • I love that I'm not the only one whose resolution is to get pregnant!   Let's hope that 2010 is a great year for all of us!  And 2011 as well, because some of us won't have due dates until then :)

  • Cuss less....especially since DD is starting to repeat things I say.
  • 1) Make more time for DH... put off my grading and housework to spend more time with him.

    2) Make more of an effort to organize dinners for the week before going to the store/attempt new recipes!
