2012 in a nutshell

Biggest Purchase:
Law school continues to win this one, 200 times over.

Favorite Movie:
This Means War and Hunger Games

Least Favorite Movie:
I can't think of one!  I swear I watched 2012 last year, and that was pretty terrible. Mike also tried to get me to watch Inception multiple times, and I just couldn't do it.

Favorite Celebrity:
Chris Pine, Liam Hemsworth, Reese Witherspoon, Jennifer Lawrence

Least Favorite Celebrity:
Melissa McCarthy or Kristen Stewart. And Miley Cyrus.

Guilty Pleasure:
Mountain Dew.  :/

Sickest Moment:
I had a horrible tooth issue that took a long time to go away and I was in A. LOT. of pain.  I think the kids had various sicknesses, and on my birthday, Hudson got a stomach bug or something, and I had him in bed with me and a throw-up bucket. Poor buddy.

Saddest Moment:
The shooting in CT.

Achievements:
Mike graduated law school!
Mike passed the bar!
Mike got a 'real' job!
I potty-trained Hudson (though that one is still kinda on-going)

2012 "Firsts":
Mike and I took our first trip sans kids to Miami!  It was amazing and everything we wanted.

I met up with all my BabyCenter friends in Big Bear, CA for the first time.  It was the most fun, and also the most exhausting trip ever.  I loved every minute.

My BFF from high school got married (for the first time) so I got to go to the 8-0-1 and see all my best friends.  It was a blast.

Lessons Learned:
People really have to learn for themselves. You can try and tell them, but they won't listen. (I'm sure this is one I'll have to learn over and over again...)

I really am confident in who I am.  It's so interesting, the older I get, the less I care about what other people think. I'm so glad I went through being unsure of myself when I was younger, I really am so happy with how things are!  Of course I am far from perfect, and need to work on things, but I know I can, and I know I'll do it for ME, not for anyone else.

2012 in 1 word:
So!Much!Fun!

2013 will be:
Amazing

Hopes for 2013:
To buy a house
Get Maddy in a good school
Cherish my friendships I have and build new friendships with new people
