I thought Kandice's thread was going to ask this, but it was something totally different, so I thought I'd start this one!
I know there's been resolutions threads about 2009, but is there anything that you've got planned, that you're looking forward too?
What I'm looking forward to this year is celebrating my 10th wedding anniversary with Dh. It's not til September, but we've been talking about what we want to do for it, and we've agreed to go away for a week without the kids! It's always been my desire to do this, but wasn't sure if dh would agree, but he has! But now we're thinking about where to go! I wanted to go to a Pacific Island, but now we're thinking someplace in NZ. I just want to go to a place that we don't have to think about doing anything! Completely relax, sleep and recuperate.
Also we'll have a party at our place to celebrate, probably after we've come back from our holiday. Ahh, I'm excited already! ------------- My babies: R (9),G (7), J (5) http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I'm looking forward to returning to study. I want to get started now but apparently I have to wait for the course to actually start!! 
Also looking forward to (hopefully) finally getting a BFP - or moving onto IVF. Either way - I'm just looking forward to making any kind of progress - sick of just TTC month after month! ------------- TTC#1: Jan 07 Aug 08: Lap found and excised Stage 3 Endo Nov 08: 2nd lap clear - given OK to TTC after next AF |

I'm looking forward to finding our own feet and finally having our own space (in our own place). Joining a playgroup and lucas & I making new friends etc
Lucas' 2nd Birthday, unlike his first where we kept it to a minimum this year I want to give him a lovely party 
And any one new I might meet along the way ...or a special someone I might be reunited with Things I'm not looking forward to : Family situations(grandparents esp) ...several family members are quite ill atm and I'm scared that come Christmas '09 we'll be missing some. Nana is in hosp atm, having an operation tomorrow ...possibly only the first of many to come. |

I'm looking forward to (and am also very nervous about) moving to Christchurch and starting fresh (= running away from all the difficult things here...  )
A happier, more stable, more sanity-inducing year than 2009. And of course, bubs arriving in June(ish)

I'm looking forward to our 2nd wedding anniversary ( only 7 sleeps to go) and actually getting to spend it with DH as last year he was working for the UN in East Timor - I'm so excited (even though he is on nightshift and we can't have bubbly!)
Oh, and hopefully a BFP!! I am also looking forward to getting rid of my head cold & cold sores... it's summer for crying out loud, you aren't supposed to get sick in summer. |

I'm looking forward to my parents moving to Wellington in March - both because Amy & Sophie will get to see them lots (they are a bit older and my dad is not in the best of health) and for very selfish reasons like belng able to have a date night with DH once a month and to get my hair cut more that every 9 ot 10 months )
I am looking forward to seeing Sophie becoming a toddler and her personality really coming out and for Amy to grow into a beautiful confidant pre-schooler. And like Jo, I am very excited about taking Amy to the Wiggles .
I am NOT looking forward to toilet training with Amy .-------------
