November Goals & October Goals Recap

As you can see below, my November goals are MUCH different than in previous months.  It is HARD adding another family member into the mix - at least for me.  So much to get adjusted to.  Wonderful, but an adjustment!  I'm trying to give myself some grace as we all get adjusted to our new normal so with that said, the bar is low for goals!  We are taking things day by day and it's working so far!


November Goals:

• Adjust to life with a newborn! 
• Write thank you notes to the many sweet family and friends showering us with love lately
• Create, print and mail birth announcements
  
• Spend some quality one-on-one time with Jack
• Enjoy Thanksgiving
• Start planning Christmas gifts and decor

October Goals Update:
All I can say is that I was a crazy pregnant lady on a mission...

• Figure something out for nurses gifts to take to the hospital  - Personalized Cookies!
  
• Pack snacks for hospital stay
• Have both kids car seats professionally checked
• Have hair cut/colored before baby comes {and maybe a mani/pedi and eyebrow wax if I can find the time}!  It will be a long time before I get around to these things again after baby comes. 
• Stock up on freezer meals - Such a long story for another day, but I can say I have a fully stocked freezer...they just aren't with the original ones made by me!
  
• Put together double stroller
• Setup our baby gear downstairs - I'm not supposed to do stairs after my surgery and of course the nursery and Jack's room are all upstairs along with most of the baby gear so I'd love to get some of this stuff settled downstairs. 
• Family pumpkin patch trip and/or County Fair trip
• Date night with Jason
• Extra hugs, kisses and snuggles with Jack
