Another year gone and a new year to start fresh. 2014 is sure to be a very busy year for our family.
We have decided to make a list of our goals for this year and aim for accomplishing those rather than listing "resolutions". I have even gone a step further, thanks to my obsessive compulsive perfectionism (is that a word?), and decided to make monthly goals for the year. Of course, my list is a mile long and I guarantee I will add at least five more things every month that goes by. I'm very ambitious when I'm laying on the couch not doing anything else. It's a whole other story when it comes down to actually getting things done.
Kolt's 2014 goals: Make E5 and buy a bass boat.
Lexi's 2014 goals: Get to my goal weight, start cooking more, create a financial budget and stick to it, start eating healthier, and keep more on top of my blog posts.
The monthly goals are focused more specifically on Brinleigh and things I want to work on with her. January's goal: Get her completely off bottles. She will be 18 months at the end of January and that is when I plan on packing up the last few bottles that we have sitting in the cabinets. She really only gets one bottle a day and it is usually warm milk before bed. The bottle before bed has been part of our bedtime routine for over a year and is now mainly a comfort thing. So no more bottles after January.
Since the monthly goals will most likely change.... often.... I won't post a list but I will write a post every month giving updates on what the monthly goal is and how it's going.
Other exciting things that 2014 will bring.....
Kolt will become a flight mech
Brinleigh's second birthday
Transferring out of Sitka and moving to a new state
Traveling. Lots of traveling.
