Day 7: Resoloution 7: Catch up on my reading

Anyone who know me really well would be shocked to learn this is just some of my pile of current unread books - before I had babs this would have been less than a month's reading. His early arrival means I still haven't finished the stuff I bought for my maternity leave. My resoloution is to get back reading - I'ld like to aim for an average of one book a week. The race is on!

Day 6: Resoloution 6: Get back to work


Having resigned my job as a contractor for my maternity leave I'm on the job hunt again. Fingers crossed I'll find something before my maternity leave is due to end in March.

Day 5: Resolution 5: Add more variety to my cooking





I'm a divil for cooking the same things over and over (legacy of a childhood where mammy would always say - oh you wouldn't like it ). I made a huge effort to change this when I did weight watchers to lose the weight for my wedding so now I'm back in again I'm going to try and make at least one new recipie every week. This was my first meal - an Italian one pot lamb meal from the plan. It wasn't bad but not something I think I'll be cooking regularly.

Day 4: Resolution 4: Get back to goal!


Some what related to yesterday's photo, this is a photo of my weight watchers gold card - I got it the week I found out I was pregnant. Have been back since Conor was six weeks but did a lot of damage over Christmas so it's time to seriously get my arse in gear and get back to my goal weight of ten stone. That leaves 2.5 stone to lose. I'ld love to have it lost before I have start paying for classes again but that's a pipe dream (35 pounds in 10 weeks) so I'm settling for losing it and having my maintainance done in time for my first wedding of the summer season in June.

Day 3: Resoloution 3: Get fit again


This time last year I was as fit as I had been in a long time  - one honeymoon and a pregnancy later I'm no where near that level. So it's time to get my walking shoes (well runners) on again, charge up my iPod and get out there.

Day 2: Resolution 2: Have lots of family time

 The title probably says it all. Looking forward to a year of great adventures documented with lots of photos. A bed time story is a new tradition for Conor, hopefully it will start a love of reading that lasts a lifetime.

Day 1: Resolution 1 : Take more photos


Well if I'm going taking 365 unique shots I guess my first resolution has to be to take more photos. First picture had to be of my darling son. Going to retake this shot a few times during the year just to see if Conor or the hippo is growing faster!
