Time my change me, but I can trace time

Today I was talking to Wes about how other people help you reflect upon yourself and it made me realise how much I have changed over the past couple of years, without really realising it. Big things from accepting other peoples points of view and taking them into account when making a decision to little changes such as making sure that Wes has a shirt cleaned for work the next day so that he doesn't have to get up even earlier then he has to...I suppose they are the same actually...caring about others before yourself.

With Little B-Bee's arrival only 7 weeks away (hopefully) caring about others has never been so important. Wes and I have had to make so many changes to our lives to make sure that it works for both Little B-Bee and Eleanor, with how it will effect us a mere after thought. 

Within just two weeks we have made really quite big decisions in regards to our businesses, where we want to live and how we are going to plan our current home to work for the new arrival. I have to admit that at first I resisted, wanting to live the life I thought 'I should' live, but it has been great to work together as a team to come up with ideas that just make so much more sense. We have even changed the name we are going to call Little B-Bee!

One thing that really hasn't changed is how compatible Wes and I are and how well we have worked as a little unit with Eleanor so far. The smallest things seem to entertain us no end! (Specimen far left)

So changes...

Business
I can be somewhat, shall we say, flighty at times, especially when things don't going to plan. 2011 was a VERY tight year in regards to web design and I had to think of a new direction to take the business, thus Label Amour was born. I have now been running for just 8 weeks and things are really picking up. I was tempted to by another company to help supplement the income, but Wes convinced me to stick to just one thing and make it the best it can be! Hopefully they'll be quite a few changes with Bean Loved this year although Wes will never be able to stop loving coffee. I'm sure it runs within his blood, actually I think coffee is his blood!

Location
Skipton, although quite pretty (at times), can be somewhat stagnent. It may have a number of good schools and the like, but it just doesn't really have a vibe. So we have decided to up sticks once we have settled into being new parents. Hebden Bridge is currently on the cards as it is close enough to Wes' work and close to family but alternative enough to keep us satisfied. And hey if I ever get bored of Wes, I've a bunch of lesbians to hit on...perfect!

Home
As most of you will know, we have a pretty small house, which has worked well for Wes, Eleanor and I, but could be a tight squeeze with the little fella involved (no not Wes'....dirty, dirty minds you have!) So we have had to think on our feet a little and lets just say 'we will be putting baby in the corner'!

Blimey I have been rabbiting on for ages...time for sign off...oh David, can you sum up this year for me?
