In no particular order:
- Read parenting books (Parents, any suggestions?)
- Keep our photos website up to date ( www.8-3-2003.com/Photos )
- Create entries in our blog. (Yes, this is my first entry. Tara's done the rest)
- Get serious about becoming an expert in Java programming (I've been attempting this for many years)
- Exercise and eat healthy
- Save for new family car (I'm thinking an early 90's Chevy Astro or Dodge Caravan in blue)
- Reconnect with old friends (Facebook??? LinkedIn???)
- Be more spiritual and spend more time in prayer talking with God.
- Be a better husband (Tara may argue this is not possible but I think there is room for some improvement)
- Be thankful for all that I've been blessed with and worry less about the small stuff.

Love your resolutions:) As a parent of four and a pediatric RN let me suggest two great reads for parenting:
1)Babywise by Gary Ezzo and Dr. Robert Bucknam (It is truly the instruction manual people wish came with the birth of their child- it's all about flexible routines which I have seen countless numbers of children thrive on)
2)Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child by Dr. Mark Weisbluth My kids all have slept 12 hours a night since the time they were six months and continue taking 2-3 hour naps until or through preschool... need I say more:)
These are great reads and are a great place to start as new parents... just take it with a grain of salt/ not as the Bible so to speak.
Hope that helps and good luck. You will be great parents!!!
Love, The Roach Team again:)
