I'm keeping the goals for this month super simple and attainable again so I can soak up the time I have on maternity leave and enjoy the holiday season. My biggest goal which seems to be the theme of the entire year is to worry less about tasks like housework and laundry {and blogging evidently} and be more present with my family. This is not easy for me since I'm always worried about "getting everything done"...I just have to remind myself that things will never, ever be done so we must enjoy the everyday moments and make lots of great memories for our kiddos!
December Goals:
- Finish Christmas shopping by mid December so I can wrap and enjoy the holidays
- Worry less about housework and spend more time soaking in the precious moments
- Drive thru the neighborhood looking at Christmas lights as a family
- Visit Santa
- Donate toys for others/Adopt a family
- Send out family Christmas cards
