2012 in review and on to 2013

Its no surprise that the most significant event for me this year, and the rest of my life is the birth of my first child! Since she arrived, my blog has been mainly about her and breastfeeding. Haha Little Bambi is now 6 and a half months, and only thing I dread about the New Year is leaving her side to return to work.

More highlights of the year:

- Being a mother has changed me completely. Suddenly, I am shopping in baby shops, reading up on baby topics and baby everything!

- Going on maternity leave. I swear, I have been enjoying every minute of it. I am taking 8 months of maternity leave, and during this 8 months, I am still getting half my wages each month. Which is money in my bank account, and with this, Little Bambi and I go shopping, we buy nice things, we eat nice food and have a good time together.

- Seeing my BFF marry the love of her life! Did I mention... there's a little baby on the way!

- Turning 30.

2013 I hope to:

- Juggle my family and a full time job. It will be hard work, but I want to make it possible! I want to be a good mother to Little Bambi and at the same time, have a career.

- Eat better. Somehow this year we have been having fast food at least once a week because its quick, convenient and cheap. I should really stop! I don't want my little baby to even go near McDonalds.

- Exercise and be healthy.

- Buy an investment property. Wishful thinking, but I am convinced I can make it happen. Reading my old posts, I did mention that I wanted to change the carpets in my house, which I have not done yet!

Today, at this point in time, I am happy! I had a lovely Christmas and apart from returning to work very soon, I hope the New Year will bring more wonderful experiences for the three of us - Little Bambi, Grumpy and I.

Happy New Year!!
