It’s time to make my monthly goals and share them here for accountability! First, a look back.
- Clean the house for Passover.
- Do December and January Project Life pages.
- Come up with something to do on the kids’ days off from school – there are 5 of them that are not Passover holiday days.
- Plan Gabbie’s birthday party.
- Buy Gabbie’s birthday present.
- Since I’m getting closer to 300 followers via GFC – start planning a 300 follower giveaway!
- Get my Box of Books swap started.
- Decide what to do with Simon after his music class ends. (His teacher is retiring – waah.)
- Drink more water.
- OK. Run for 15 minutes at 6.2 mph. I really have to do this.
- Done. This was a no choice about it goal! We got everything cleaned for Passover, yay!
- Done – see my Project Life pages here.
- Done. I am in the process of sharing the things we did on the kids’ days off of school.
- In progress. Gabbie’s party will be on April 14 so I’m still planning it. Tomorrow I’ll be posting a bit about the plans, so check back!
- Done. Gabbie got Olivia’s House – the Lego set she really wanted – from us and my parents combined. She also received a gift card from my brother and his wife and money from Dave’s parents so she combined that and got the Lego Friends pool set! She has a whole Lego Friends village going on now.
- Done. I reached 300 Followers and held a giveaway. You can still enter right here!!
- Done. My Box of Books Swap went out and is moving on to person #2!
- Done. I decided to continue Simon’s music class in a new location. We have attended there twice and he has adjusted pretty well so far.
- Well. I tried to drink more water a few times. Does anyone know when you stop having to pee all the time when you drink a lot? I will have to continue working on this.
- Not Done. I haven’t really run that much this month at all. Oops. I did run outside twice which I really like but is much slower for me and with more walking breaks. I can run a mile but then I’m so out of breath…I am not sure how to improve that other than go slower, but if I go slower I’d be stopped!
Since I’ve been posting my goal posts on the first Sunday of the month and April started on a Monday, I’ve already started on some of these goals! I figured I’d include them anyway since they are in progress.
- Wean Simon. Yes he is 2.5 and still nursing. Or not – I stopped nursing him on April 3 and today is day 5 cold turkey no nursing and it’s going great! He’s asked for it a few times but he really has adjusted amazingly so far!
- Eat healthier meals. This one is also in progress already and I’ve been working on cutting down on sugar and white flour and filling up on veggies and protein. I need to figure out some more easy to prepare protein sources though!
- Finish planning Gabbie’s party and hold her party on the 14th.
- Do Project Life pages for February.
- Get everything ready for my parents’ visit and my surgery.
- Make it through the few weeks after the surgery.
- Finish getting my Mom a Minute series ready to go live. Any mom readers want to join in? I’m featuring various moms on my blog starting on April 17!
- Get my Israel Flashback Feature ready to go for the next 4 Tuesdays in April.
- Make it to at least one consignment sale and find bargain clothes for the kids.
- Complete at least one thing from my 35 Things list.
So it’s looking to be an interesting month!
