Hi Everyone! I hope you all had an amazing New Year's Eve and Day! I spent both days with my boys and catching up with lots of friends. On Wednesday my son and I wandered around South Philly with our good friends, all day, at the Mummers parade. It really turned out to be such a great time. Always risky being out on the town with a couple of two year old children for more than 6 hours straight, but it was all worth it!  After lots of walking/carrying, numerous trips to the nearest "potty", and exploring new houses and roof decks...it was time to go home, eat some pizza, and think about a New Year's resolution or two.

The one I have been wanting to do for some time is a definite must for me, and that is to put down my iPhone as often as possible. I am definitely in the habit of checking emails, texts, Instagram, twitter at so many times throughout the day. I love having access to all of this stuff so easily but I really find myself wondering if I needed to check those emails first thing in the morning, or see what my closest twitter celebrity friends are up to :)  



I'll let you know how this one goes! It's definitely a habit of mine now so it won't be too easy to just stop doing, especially with a work schedule that is constantly changing via email and text. I'm always up for a good challenge though! 

Resolution #2 is also going to take some getting used to...cutting the cable bill. Our monthly cable bill is getting out of control and I feel like this is probably one of the easiest ways to save some money in 2014. So goodbye new season of Shameless, you will be missed.  Homeland...I'm sure I'll be back in time for next season, lets get serious.  

If anyone has insight on either resolutions and how I can achieve them - please fill me in! 



Here's to a happy and healthy 2014 for all of you!
