Every year I like to reflect on my anti-resolutions
and highlight my accomplishments & experiences

- I opened up about our IVF journey in my most personal blog post ever
- Saw Book of Mormon on Broadway with my friends
- Also saw Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway {was INCREDIBLE}
- Saw Billie Eilish at Madison Square Garden - got last minute tickets and I am so happy we did!
- Checked out "Night Forms: dreamloop by Klip Collective" at Grounds For Sculpture
- Wasn't all happy and fun though- we lost our Maggie girl in February, I miss her every day.
- Had a baby shower I did not want
- Had a NYC baby shower in Bryant Park which felt very full circle since that is where we had our egg retrieval and transfer at our IVF clinic
