Hello Bloggies!
I haven't been blogging in quite some time and I have missed everyone so much in my absence. In my absence though, I've still had the viewers every day, so thanks to all that keep me in mind. My profile jumped like 6,000 views since my last post.
Anyways, I wanted to recap this year and give a sneak peak of my new years resolutions. Here we go.....
I'll start with Brynnie being a 3 month old. Here she is taking a bath in Jan. 2012. She now loves baths so much that she throws a fit when the water starts going down the drain.
Here are some photos I took of her at 3 months old at the beginning of the year. I love peacock colors, so I went with that look when I photographed her in Jan. 2012.
Not much happened over the spring, I focused on my weight loss and lost 34lbs in 2012!!!
Here is a spring photo of Brynnie Boo. Man, has she grown up so much since the beginning of the year. This dress was made by my mother and I.
I photographed my first wedding in the spring of 2012.
Shawn was in the wedding. Look how handsome he can be in a suit... :)
In September, we had Brynn's first Birthday. It was Diva-themed.
Look how beautiful my lil' princess is in that photo. Shortly after her Birthday, we had to give her a SECOND haircut. I often cut my own hair and I have cut my own hair since I was 15 years old, so cutting Brynn's hair was a piece of cake. I cut her hair in a bob cut.
I had my first High school reunion that I attended. It was pretty lame. No one had really changed from 2002 and it will probably be the last one I attend. I did have a good time taking goofy photos with one of my best friends from High school.
A week after my reunion, I got promoted at work..... Why couldn't it have came just a week sooner? Just like every person on this Earth, I kind of wanted to brag about my new opportunity. I'm not quite sure it was the right decision for me, but I'm dealing at the moment. I got pretty beat up the last few weeks before I went on vacation this year. Let's just say that I am putting in a solid year of it, then I am going to search for a company that treats it's employees a little better than where I currently am at in the education field.
With all the stress and extra hours at work, I gained 10 of my 34lbs back. :(
At least I get to come home to this face! This was Thanksgiving 2012.
Taking a jump back a few weeks, I went as Alice from Alice and Wonderland for Halloween. If you are not a long time reader, then you probably don't know that Alice in Wonderland is one of my favorite stories.
Lastly, I made it past made it through my first quarter as a functional director of our school. Thankfully, I took an 11 day vacation after the quarter ended.
While on leave I took some beautiful photos of Brynn. I did absolutely nothing after that other than attend family Christmas parties.
I am more than excited for the New Year. I've had a pretty great vacation snuggling my baby Brynn, but I am ready to get back to weight loss and routine. It's difficult with my job, but I have to try to make it work.
Since this is a long post, I will have my New Year's resolutions for tomorrow. To be continued....
XOXO,
Skinny Gal Somewhere.
