March Goals/ February Update

Forgive me; most of this post is all about goals/ ambitions/ projects that are baby-related!

Here are my February Goals:

Hair bows!

• Get the office in order (starting with one small task every day) - Robert did it all for me, and it's not totally done yet.
• Keep up with picking up/ vacuuming/ dusting - We both did a really great job!
• Finish 2 more DIY Projects for Ellie Jo from Pinterest - Yes! Keri & I totally had a crafting morning last week, and I also made some bows from her tutorial for Ellie Jo!
• Keep up with my Bible Reading in 1 Year - STILL haven't missed a day! :)
• Try to find a new home for the piano in the den - Not yet. We'll be doing that this week.
• Keep up with attendance sheets for Awana Games - Perhaps actually being able to attend the practices would have helped me be able to do that. But due to my working 50+ hours/ week right now, I was unable to do much of anything for Games.
• Return library books and start over with a new goal of 1 book per week - Returned them; haven't started a new one.
• Take a bubble bath to relax - Haven't.Had.Time.
• Find a new set of 5 tall votive holders for on top of the mantle (me and my gracefulness totally kersmashed one of them over Christmas, sigh. And since one is already broken at the top, it's time for a new set). - Can't find a set! :(
• Help Robert as much as I can with the furniture projects (as much as I can) - I haven't hardly done anything. Robert has done everything for me. :( I haven't been able to find enough time to help out around the house much at all.
• One is moving the piano out of the office
• Two is moving the two bookcases from the guest room/ nursery into the office
• Three is moving my daybed, entertainment center, and TV to my dad's house 
• Four is getting the crib, dresser and changing table all ready to go 

As you can see, it was pretty much epic failure. It's not for a lack of trying. It's for a lack of time. I've been working crazy hours since it's tax season, and I'm up at H&R Block 4 nights a week and all weekend. 

I'm thankful for everything Robert has been helping me with, and I'm thankful for a clean house. I suppose that's about all I can say, lol!

We have 2 1/2 months left before Elizabeth is here. Can't believe how fast the pregnancy has been! I'm still getting sick pretty much every day. But it's less than it was before! Starting next week at our doctor's appointment, we'll be going in every two weeks after that. :) 

Here's what I'm thinking for March! 


Goals for March: 

• Get rid of the piano
• Get the bookcases out of Elizabeth's nursery and put them in the office
• Get the closet in the nursery cleaned out
• Get the day bed in the nursery to my dad's house
• Find a place for the small entertainment center and TV in the nursery
• Start and finish a new Pinterest project for Elizabeth
• Experiment with a new recipe
• Go to bed before 11:00pm as often as I can 
• Pick a project off of my "Things I Want To Sew" board on Pinterest and do it! 
• Find something new to do with Etsy
