The 2010 Mommy & Wife

Ok, so still feeling the newness of the new year, I have been trying to use this week to get the Kennedy family organized and in some kind of routine. I do enjoy routines/schedules/lists but don't always stick to them (even though I do LOVE to make them). However, this week between cleaning, organizing, trial and error, I think I am going to be able to get on board with some mommy & wife 2010 goals for myself. I mean who doesn't want to feel like the best mommy & wife ever?!

Now, first off I am not perfect by any means nor do I want to be. BUT...I would like to feel like I am doing my best daily for my 3 boys. I am very blessed to have the life I have and not to mention the time I have. The Kennedy house is more or less pretty mellow, day in and day out, and truly God has blessed us with a very peaceful existence we can truly enjoy. SO...I am going to do my best to not take it for granted. I will be content and happy being a great mommy to Cutter and Christian AND a very appreciative and loving wife to Collin.

After all...I think they are worth it!!!

So, this post is really about ME! I figured if I put the words out there it might help me stay in check and committed to what I want to accomplish. Let's get started...shall we???

MOMMY GOALS

1. Boys in bed at 8 pm.
2. READ, READ, READ with Cutter and Christian.
3. Consistent discipline
4. Teeth brushed 2x a day...UGH! (not gonna lie, not one of best duties)
5. Play more with them...use 1 on 1 time better with them.


WIFE GOALS

1. Take better care of house, so Collin feels more relaxed after working.
2. Be more appreciative & loving.
3. Cooking
4. Being financially responsible
5. Quality time with Collin (the boys in bed @ 8 will help with this)


ME GOALS

I will make sure to be my best to my family that I will take time for myself too.

That's it...I guess I am on my way to that perfection I talked about...HA...wish me luck!!!

(Seriously...I can't freakin' figure this font stuff out...WTH!!!)

  2. Great goals, Lorie. I don't even bother thinking about goals becuase they are out the window at the first sign of chaos. I'm sure you'll reach yours though. :-) Happy 2010!
