A New Year ... 2010!!


We had a good holiday, I hosted Christmas dinner at my house on the 24th which I think turned out pretty darn good and will probably be hosting dinner every year now!? My Dad came and ate a lot but then didn't feel so well after - probably cause his tummy isn't used to having food in it!? Jacob got spoiled as expected, we all did really! Above is a pic of Jacobs new toys, now I have to go through them all make room for the new ones! Then on the 25th we went to visit some of my family that wasn't able to make it over for dinner. Boxing Day the inlaws host a open house that usually always has good food and lots of laughs, we brought Jacob over a little early and had a good time visiting with family and friends we don't get to see very often. Jacob was having fun chasing one of my hubbies cousins friends, it was funny to watch him go after her and she played along which made it even more funny! On the 27th my girlfriend had her baby, a boy - 6lbs 9oz ! So on Monday we went to go visit and see the new addition!! He seems like a very good baby and didn't squawk the entire time we were there!

New Years Eve was pretty relaxed, my inlaws took Jacob for an overnight stay so we didn't have to worry about being too loud and were able to have a few drinks. We didn't have to go pick him up till supper time the next day - which was a really nice break but at midnight I sure was thinking about my little man and wished I could have had a hug! :( This year I am not really planning on having a resolution but a change in lifestyle. I really need to start working out more and it is so hard to do that at home so I'm thinking about joining a gym that has daycare for Jacob. We also got a few new games for the Wii so I'm hoping that I can use that more in the evening. I am going to try and use the Wii for Jan and see how it goes but if I find that I'm not using it as much as I would like to then I will have to join a gym and commit myself to going at least 3 times a week! So for this year I am giving it my all, I am going to loose this weight and hopefully my Jacobs 2nd birthday (in June) I will be down at least 30lbs ! So far I think I am off to a pretty good start, I haven't lost lots but at least the scale has gone down in 2 days... I'm going to try not to get on the scale everyday - only once a week! I have stayed on track with my diet almost 100% and have stayed away from temptations, I have played on the Wii a few times last week and I'm hoping to make it a new habit and play more this week!! I will be accountable for all my actions and try to stay strong!
