Hello 2019!

Yesterday I woke up and decided to cook my family a proper breakfast, rather than pouring a bowl of cereal or throwing an Eggo in the toaster. I made crepes, bacon and cheddar for DH and I but peanut butter and banana for the LO. They were pretty good!

We didn't do much all morning; put away laundry, did the dishes, played games and lounged. Before lunch I ran a bath for the LO as we would be out a couple of nights in a row, and after lunch we napped together. Surprisingly we slept for over 2 hours! It was, peaceful.

We went over to my mom's and ordered in dinner. We didn't stay too late and shortly after I put the LO to bed, DH went out to a friends for a bit.

Home alone on New Year's Eve, watching Netflix and drafting blogs by myself. And while some people wouldn't be OK with that, and don't understand it, I was happy. I enjoyed Christmas this year, so much so that DH said he preferred when I hated it (I think he was joking). But, I'm still not into New Year's; I just don't get it. Especially since I have a tiny human alarm clock that calls for me at 6am regardless of when I went to sleep!

Today is a new year, a new day; but it's so cliché.

Every day is a new beginning, a fresh start. Whether it's January 1st, April, July or December; every day is a chance to change the rest of your life! Whether it's your attitude, your health, your job, whatever!

I don't believe in resolutions, but I did learn some things this last year that will change the way I see things in the future. I've learned that unconditional love truly does exist. I've learned to accept my flaws and love myself just as much as my daughter loves me. And I've learned that, sometimes, it's OK to put myself first - because my family needs me to be the best me I can be.
