Nanny to Mommy

Ringing in the New Year looks a little different when you have kids, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be just as magical! Over the years, we’ve created family-friendly traditions that make the countdown exciting for the little ones, and this year, we’re joining friends and their kiddos to celebrate together. Here are some of our favorite ways to make New Year’s Eve fun and memorable for the whole family.

I have always tried making New Year resolutions that would stick. And it seems great and really easy at first because you are motivated, but then by week three of the new year you are back to old habits. That's why I have decided to make smaller goals for myself this year, instead of traditional "resolutions". Easy to set, so I won't be weighed down by the heavy obstacle.

My 2016 New Year Goals:

We had a great year. You worked your booty off on the blog and had the most productive year yet. Hubby had a great year too and got promoted to a great high profile store. He is learning so much and happy for the experience. Sweet Pea is doing great in school. Her teachers always talk about how social and smart she is. Peanut is your bouncing baby toddler now. You can't believe how much he has grown in a year.

 

 

 

We did some great things as a family. We went to White Water, Dragon*Con, strawberry picking, and to the lake more than a few times. We had a great vacation in Panama City Beach, FL with the whole family. SweetPea started dance and you couldn't be more proud of her. She turned five this year and that is just crazy. You celebrated your 8 year wedding anniversary too.

Happy New Year's Eve, everyone! I hope you have some great plans tonight or snuggling your littles close like I will be.
