A Pictures Is Worth A Thousand Words

I started 2010 with three New Years Resolutions.
#1- Get in shape. Not anything crazy- like Jessica Biel shape- just not flabby, I want to vomit when I see myself naked in the mirror shape.
#2- Have newleywed relations. The goal here is frequency. A job and two kids getting up every other night can be killer on the love life.
#3- Keep up with my blog and post weekly.
I recently read a article that said only 40-45% of Americans make New Years Resolutions. That statistic made me feel smug. Atleast I am more motivated than 60% of people to set goals for myself.
Five weeks into the New Year I revisited that article. Not feeling so smug now. Only 75% of resolutions are followed past the first week, 65% after one month, and 46% after six months.
Wow......I guess my resolutions must fall into the 1% that never really get off the ground.
On the contrary, I have found a hobby that I have continued to exercise- with vigorous intensity I might add. Photography. I have always been interested in photography. For Christmas I got a new camera and while I haven't picked up a weight, turned into a nimpho, or blogged weekly- I have spent time exploring my inner photographer.

I love this picture of Addie. It's like she's looking at me and saying, "What are we going to do today?"
Trying to give her incentive to crawl. She wasn't buying it.


Moving on to pulling herself up. She was more into this. She was exploring Tyler's train table while he was napping. I think she is thinking, "Thank god he went to bed. Now I can play with those f"in cars and trains without him throwing a fit."


Both of my kids are precious. Addie is at my favorite age- 10 months. She is full of wonder and excitement. She is very sweet and loving. She is my Sunshine and she makes me happy when skies are grey.
