2012, The Year that has been & the year ahead - Share your thoughts/journey/hopes

I'm another with an "okay but not great" 2012. There have been some amazing things - Amelia continuing to grow into this fantastic little lady, discovering new things every day and sharing her life with me - but it's all tempered by the fact that my uncle died in August, we still have some financial things to sort out, I haven't achieved some things I wanted to... So, good and bad things evening out to a pretty average year on the whole.

I hope 2013 brings me another healthy baby, NO FAMILY DEATHS (seriously, it's been at least one a year 2009-12!), strength in my marriage, a bit more ease with money, and hopefully this time next year Ianto's grave will finally have a headstone (which ties into the financial stuff)

2012 has been... a "meh" kinda year.. flooded in march, lost 13 chicks all up from that...started distance ed, got screwed over by the place i was doing it for so it'll be starting from scrach here. my sister got engaged. my nan got sick. got two cats and realised who my real friends are and realised some of the one had lerking where worth so much more.

2013 well it's a write off in at least Jan. my nan will die. my uncle gets test results back for his lung - its eather going to be aspestous or athritus. DJ will start kinder. sister will have her engagement party...the rest of 2013 better not get any worse then 2011 type year or i will scream loudly and have a tanty. cant handle another 2011 type year...not now. not ever.

2012 brought me a new job, and eased our financial burdens. 2013 will hopefully bring us a healthy and happy new baby- arriving via peaceful, natural birth.

2012 has been wildly fun. Ending very differently to how it started, but fun all the way through. This time last year another baby was barely on my radar, and now here she is! Our little pop up blessing. 2012 was a great year for family, we've had visits from everyone and made peace with some important ones. Enjoyed what we have while we have it.

2013... Well, who knows? I'll just enjoy getting to know my littlest girl, and keep loving the adventures ith my big one. We have three really exciting holidays planned, and more renovations. It will be our fifth year in Brisbane and we have built a wonderful network of new friends here, so hoping to strengthen and enjoy that.

2012 has been a great year for us.
Starting off with a BFP in February after over three years of ttc. We were blessed with our second DD, arriving 1st November.
We had four weddings in 2012, commencing January then two in October and one in November, three of the weddings were family members.
My sister announced she was pg with her first baby.

2013 is set to be another great year for us.
DD#1 starts primary school in February
My little bro turns 30 in February
April/May we will meet my sisters first baby
My SIL will welcome her second baby in July
My DD#2 will celebrate her first birthday in November

Personally for me I hope to be able to:
(finances dependant) stay home for at least 12 months with DD#2. I am wishing to the universe almost daily for this.
I will commence the MB12WBT again (just signed up) and hope to continue to lose this weight I gained during pg and continue to work towards a healthy weight range, keep it off and work on my fitness.
For my DH to be rewarded for all his continued hard work and dedication to the company where he works
For our relationship to continue to grow strong
and good health to family & friends
