New Year Hopes

Hair inspo!

Hi loves! It has been such a long time since I blogged and I have missed it! Being a new mommy I promised myself I would find time to blog – but truthfully it just hasn’t happened. I have so much to be thankful for this past year. I became a first time mommy to the best little one, I got married to my best friend, and I found out more about the person I am. Looking ahead to the New Year I really want to stay focused on my goals this time around. It seems like every year I am promising to do things and I just don’t get around to it (total procrastinator over here!)

So here are just some of the things I’d like to get done this year…

1.  Get fit again.

I was really getting into great shape before I found out I was pregnant. The entire year before I was I went to barre classes every single morning, even on weekends. I was super motivated and saw my results fairly quickly. Sadly, I haven’t been to the gym since baby. During my pregnancy I went to the gym up until the last two months but when Cam came I was so run down from surgery and finding my groove as a new mommy that I got lazy. I lost all the baby weight by clean eating and going low carb/high protein but I still feel blobish in some areas that could use some toning! I miss those abs I worked so hard on before! ;)

2. Blog more!

I have written so many draft posts and never finished them but I really want to take some dedicated time to work on the blog. If I need to just give up a few hours on the weekend to get it done I will! I have so many fun posts planned. I'd love to hear from you all on what you'd like to see on the blog! I am going to start posting a recipe a week as well.

3. Spend more time for myself.

I literally do my hair and makeup about once or twice a week – that’s pathetic. On weekends it seems like I live in my favorite sweatpants but I really need to start taking the time to pamper myself a little more. I want to be kind to my skin and take better care of my nails. It really is the little things that make all the difference in the world.

3. Let the past be the past.

We all have those people or family members in our lives that make us angry or do something to stir up trouble and we let it consume us. I take everything personally and I want to stop doing that this year. I would really like to let certain things roll off my back and just focus on being the best for my family. If I’ve done all that I can do as a person then I tried and move on towards the future – even if that means it doesn’t always work out!

4. Learn and try new hairstyles.

I always see Pinterest pictures of cute hair ideas and I save them but I never try them out. This year I am going to try a new hairstyle once a week (and blog it!)

5. Get photos framed.

I have so many beautiful photos from our shoots that I want to get framed but again I procrastinate. I am definitely going to get them all done this time around. It would be so nice to look at them around the house.

What are some of your New Years resolutions? I hope you all have a safe and happy holiday!
