I hope you are all working on goals of your own, it feels so great to get them crossed off the list!
Last Week’s Goals:
Intentional Relationships (Marriage/Parenting/Mentoring/Friendships):
1. Have weekly date night with Jason & write a love note
2. Work on projects for our Mother-Daughter group
3. Work on handmade gifts for the kids
4. Continue working on reading with the twins at least 3 nights.
5. Keep up on our Elf on the Shelf- (our Elf is not being naughty this year and finding things that are “good” are actually harder than the “naughty”… We had a rough week of behavior last week. It turned out that 2 of the kids came down with ear infection which probably contributed to not so great behavior. It was bad enough that our Elf left for a few days, so hopefully she will be coming back to celebrate good behavior tonight. Yesterday was much better!
Intentional Homemaking:
6. Complete the challenges for 31 Days of Decluttering in December
7. Start wrapping presents
8. Put plastic on windows (our old farm-house is quite drafty!)
9. Complete Christmas Shopping
Intentional Self-Care:
10. Get at least 7 hours of sleep 4 days this week. I’m feeling a sinus infection coming on so sleep is extra important
11. Exercise 2 times Nope, but there’s a new week starting today! I did manage to have a dance party with the 2-year-old, 2 mornings this last week so at least I got a little bit in.

I hope your kids are doing better this week, ear infections are never fun. Our week went fairly well but I have a crochet project I really need to finish, since it is a Christmas present.
This week my kids and myself will be working on candy and cookies to give to our neighbors and friends. It’s always fun baking with the kids.
I hope you have a productive week.
Jenny says
I’ve never attempted Christmas candy although I should because I have a massive sweet tooth! You have lucky neighbors!
Deanna says
🙁 Poor kids! Being sick is never fun and especially hard when you are little. You did great on your goals (and dancing with the kids should totally count as exercise). Keeping my goals really basic this week since we are hoping to head out of town for a couple of days and then have company coming.

I like how you put self care down as a category. That is so important. Thanks for the inspiration. : )
