New Years was excellent! We went to dinner with a bunch of friends and had a ball. Chad and I came home early and watched movies. We were pooped! New Years Day we went to Uncle Georges for Ham, Turkey, cole slaw, beans & rice, and all kinds of treats! The girls played Phase 10 for hours and I must say, I am quit addicted!!!! It was so much fun!
My New Years resolutions were simple: Read my Bible everyday, work on learning how to be the perfect mother and wife, and to stop worrying. I worry so much, over everything. I am a people pleaser by heart and try to make everyone happy. In 2008 I truly realized that my life has to be about me. As selfish as it sounds, you truly have to worry about yourself, your relationship with God, and who you are....I vow to make 2009 worry free. I think in life that sometimes people try to handle things on their own, and don't look at their own life. I have a baby coming and a great life to look forward to and can't take on everyone elses problems and worries! So cheers to a worry free year! So far, I must say it's been quit nice. I have done nothing but take care of me, me, me! (I threw a massage in there the other day, really nice)! ;)
I had a tough year in 2008 but I am constantly reminded that I lost a baby in 2008 and was given a baby in 2008- and for this I praise God for everyday.... HE is good!
We officially have 10 more days until we find out what the baby is. On the 13th I will be 19 weeks. I just can't wait! I can't wait to share the news with all the people that I love most, my family! So you'll just have to wait until I update the blog on the evening of the 13th. Sorry folks, but you will know soon enough! I am sure the blue or pink will give it away!
Have a blessed 2009!
I think those are great resolutions! You do need to focus on yourself. Mitch had to teach me this when we got married, because I was the same way. Now, I still do that but not as much because I know I can't do for everyone and still do for myself. I look forward to hearing if the baby is a boy or girl! Whoo hoo!
ReplyDeleteYou are so beautiful inside and out! Those are good thoughts--I'm such a pleaser sometimes, too and it makes life really worrisome sometimes! Thanks for sharing and I can't wait to hear what you and Chad are going to have in a few months!!!! :-)
