I started this blog as a way to hold me accountable for last year's resolutions. Unfortunately, those resolutions were a bit boring and there's only so many times I can tell you that I'm an absolute laundry failure. The one resolution I did manage to keep was maintaining this blog for a year, and no one is more shocked about that than I am!
This year, there are so many things I would like to make happen, but only a few that I'm really willing to do what it takes to make them happen. I would love to get the laundry situation under control, but let's be serious here.
I'm focusing on two main goals.
1. Be a better, more present mom. These past two weeks having two parents in the house full time has rejuvenated me. The more time I spend with Bub, the more fun he is. I get stuck in a rut very easily and want to focus on doing different things with him. I'm not talking Disneyland every day (although we do have annual passes just burning holes in our pockets) I just need to be willing to get out the giant bubble wands and not care that they make a huge mess.
2. Cook! I will make at least one new recipe a month. I would say each week, but who are we kidding? Currently, I'm looking for a great cinnamon roll recipe. Again, we're in a rut and my current rotation of dinner foods is seriously lacking. I've been trying new things this past year with some success and plenty of failure (I think I'll just stick to brownies from a box thankyouverymuch.)
Also? I would like to make some resolutions by proxy for Bub:
1. Potty Training!
2. Big Boy Bed!
3. Paci Fairy!
It's going to be a big year for one of us.
I made the Pioneer Woman's cinnamon rolls last year and they were FABULOUS. I highly recommend trying the recipe. : )
ReplyDeleteThose are good goals. And I love that you made resolutions for Bub too. I am imagining him saying, "This is the year that I'm finally going to quit that pacifier." :)
ReplyDeleteBest of luck! The only resolution I ever kept was to stop making resolutions. I make cinnamon rolls using my bread-maker - do you have one? I just make a bread-roll dough, sometimes add cardamon (it's a Finnish tradition), then use that to make the cinnamon rolls. Happy to send a recipe if you want it.
ReplyDeleteI love the resolutions by proxy. Too cute!
