happy new year.

happy 2008.

i look forward to every year to start fresh. this year is no different. i have set a few resolutions for myself to be more productive.

1. lose weight... again. never happens. heck... i do the opposite every year. i gain more weight.
2. be more organized. i use to be the most organized person. i'm not going to blame it on Connor. honestly, after marriage, i fell apart somehow and i can't really say it's because there's more responsibilities. i guess i got more lazy since i'm more comfortable.
3. learn. whether that means reading, taking a class, whatever, i want to educate myself.
4. catch up. i have so much in the backburner i told myself i would do, but i never got around doing it. scrapbook, backing up my personal stuff, work, etc.
5. be more happy. Connor has just blessed our lives the past year and i have been overjoyed, but i want to be more happy, especially towards my loved ones.
6. and the most difficult, sleep less. all of the above can't really be done without this one. for those of you who know me well, you're probably thinking that this one is impossible. with baby, it's especially difficult, but i'm gonna try.

Connor can now:
1. sit up a little longer by himself. he still topples to the side, but he's a bit more stable.

2. flip over. he had a hard time pulling his arm out from underneath him, but he can do it now.

3. eat solid food... not really. i've been giving him taste tests of solid foods. i've given him an apple. i will break the skin and squeeze the juice a bit so he can suck on the apple. i've also given him dduk. he sucks on it until it deteriorates and is about to fall off. i take it away cuz i don't want him choking on it. he gets angry and demands it back.
4. walk.... again, not really, but with the assistance of a walker he jets around town and is really fast. i'm afraid when he really starts to walk i'll have to keep my eyes glued on him. he already is wanting to touch everything. he even tries to touch his shadow.
