Happy New Year

Hope everyone had an amazing 2012 and will have an even better 2013!

2012 RECAP

Jan- My first month of being pregnant. I had my first ultrasound on Jan 23rd and got to see our little gummy bears heartbeat. We went and bought her very first onesie ever!

Feb- My morning sickness was in full swing. I became sick with the rota virus and lost a ton of weight.

March- I got better then got the Rota virus AGAIN. On the 26th we went and got a 4D ultrasound done and found out we were having a baby girl!

April- The 5th was our 4 year wedding anniversary and also the day we announced the gender to our families! and also our stupid cruise I hated.

May- I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Nothing much more lol

June- I had my baby shower and was home for a week!

July- We moved the third and I was in the hospital 3x a week for monitoring and testing (that got old fast) and maternity pictures!

Doing a NST

August- I was in the ER for high blood pressure and had to be very closely monitored. At a doctors appointment my blood pressure was through the roof. I was sent to the hospital for monitoring and it turned into an emergancy induction.

LILLIAN IRENE MCCANNA WAS BORN!!!! Best day of our lives!

September- Baby girl turned a month old and I was a zombie for one whole month!

October- I had my gallbladder surgery and Lilly turned two months old!

November- My mom came for thanksgiving and Lilly turned 3 months!

December- We went home for christmas and Lilly turned 4 months!

Lilly and I spent our New Years cuddled in bed together. Only was it could have been better is if Sam was off work.

My goals and dreams for this year a HUGE.

I AM going to lose 80lbs. I have never felt so motivated before to lose weight. Its going to happen. If not all 80 I want to be at least be well on my way to it.

Im starting a program called Turbo Jam by Beachbody. My best friend from high school is going to be my coach. I hope she is hard and tough and strict with me and doesn't let me get away with crap!

I want to be a better Christian! I have started a bible study group here at the base and I hope to grow through that.

I want to be a better wife and mother. always room for improvement.

Also, we are well on our way to being debt free. A good friend of mine (and fellow Air Force Wife) made Sam and I a budget for 2013. It gets all but 2 of our credit cards paid off and my car! That is something I am SO looking forward to!

Lots to look forward and be excited about this year!


I also did a 15 day pinterest food challenge!

It was delicious (unhealthy) and surprisingly easy!

Day 1 was meat ball subs

These were really good but after I ate them my belly felt very heavy.

Also. this isnt a Pinterest meal but with the left over meatballs we chopped them up and made pizza 

dough and had meatball pizza it was good!
