Christmas around the corner? Kind of. not really. But here's my New Years Resolutions anyway

So i know that we aren't really close to January, in fact its more than 4 months away, but I decided to start thinking about my new years resolutions. I've never made an official New years resolution for myself, but I think it might be good for me. And I'll start putting them into action now.

* I want to care more, be less flaky and more dependable. I forget almost everything! I forget birthdays, I return phone calls days late, I constantly have to pay late fees for forgotten credit card bills.

* I want to stick to my diet. I know its such a cliche, but I really really need to get off this baby weight. My son is going on 7 months and I have lost a whole 2 lbs.

* I am going to learn to be a better listener. I tend to block people out after a while, a short while. Although this ability does come in handy sometimes.

* I am going to stop judging people. I know I have missed out any many friendships because I judge people very quickly on whether or not we'd make good friends.

* I am going to take advantage of my free time. I don't get enough accomplished and know that I can do SO much more.

More Rewind. Less Fast Forward, Please. Thanks.

I think a lot about the fact that I had a baby so early in life. I feel like everything is on fast forward. I am a mommy. I am 21. Sometimes it makes me a little crazy. Sometimes I think its amazing how much I love him and how he makes my heart melt. I just need to make sure I get enough time with Roy and enough sleep. They both keep me sane. I have to watch my emotions on days I don't or I will cry for everything. Here's my amazing son... he loves to model for the pictures.

bbq weekend...

Roy and I decided to invite a few friends over to enjoy a bbq on his new grill. He was so excited, it was really cute. Not too many people showed... I think we made it too last minute. But we still had SO much fun and of course, some amazing food. Teriyaki chicken and garlic and herb chicken with some potato planks. The potatoes were the best part! The bbq turned into everyone get drunk and go to the bar. Random nights are the best.

Here's me, my fiancee and best friend on the night in question...
