Baby
Our baby, Lily, was born in April. To say she has turned our lives upside down has been an understatement. The first four months of the year was spent preparing for a baby - buying furniture and other baby stuff, painting a nursery and adjusting the time I spent at work. She arrived two weeks late. Then suddenly she was here! Starting a family really makes you consider your priorities and, although the amount of work you have to do doesn't decrease, you have to work differently to make the most of your time with your baby. I look forward to all the year ahead with my family.
Car crashes
My wife and I have both had (relatively minor) car accidents this year. Mine really scared me and it's not something I ever want to experience again.
Knee injury
I injured my knee in April when playing football and it's not been right since. I had an arthroscopy in August when a lot of my cartilage was removed and a tear to my ACL was identified. My consultant has said that he doesn't think it needs surgery but my physio wants me to seek a second opinion. It's really affected my fitness and it's annoyed me.

Changing year groups
At the start of the year I was beginning to feel settled in Year Three. At the end of the year I'm beginning to settle in Year Four. I've also moved classrooms twice. I've found the teaching year to be quite challenging.
I've realised after writing the above, that I feel fairly organised now. Things are settling down and I feel ready to make 2012 a successful year.
My favourite song of the year
Maroon 5 & Christina Aguilera - Moves Like Jagger
My favourite film of the year
Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows Part 2 (to be fair, I've only been to the cinema twice all year. However this film was superb - the perfect ending to a brilliant film series.)
My favourite TV shows of the year
The Apprentice & The Young Apprentice and Boardwalk Empire.
