New Years Resolutions with a Baby?

I like the idea of New Year's Resolutions. New year, make a fresh start, set some goals. But it's hard to imagine resolving to do one thing or another when I have no idea what this year will look like. Baby Caleb will be here any day to turn our world upside. Our lives run on the academic year, so I never know if we're going to be moving in the summertime. This is to make the point that I'm not sure I can resolve to decorate the apartment or cook through a certain cookbook. But there are a couple things I think I can take on:

2014 New Years Resolutions

1: I want to be an active, fit mom for Caleb and more importantly, for myself. I'm so over being huge and pregnant, I miss the feeling of being fit and being able to jog up a flight of stairs without getting winded. I resolve to go to the gym, the pool or get out for a walk with my family at least 3 times a week. And yes, that includes when it's disgustingly cold out. It does not include immediately after having the baby. I'm not that crazy. 

2: I know I've mentioned (bragged) about this before, but Brian and I have a fantastic marriage. We're crazy in love and I don't want to lose that when our family dynamic changes. My resolution is for one date night a month. 

3: I don't want to completely lose my time in the kitchen. I resolve to try one new baked good recipe once a month. 

Looking at this list, I realize that resolution number one and resolution number three counteract each other, but what would life be without its challenges?
