B+ Goals for March

Linking up again with Elizabeth and Sarah for monthly goal setting! While I have to confess I was feeling a little resistant, now that I have opened the page and started writing, I already feel refreshed and excited to get going for March.

First, a review of February.

+ 10,000 steps 4/week - I only hit my goal 12 times this month
+ track food - definitely a fail on this one. I try to do it all in MyFitnessPal, but I am thinking of switching over to Weight Watchers. Anyone have any advice?

+ Naptime Diaries Lenten Devotional - I am definitely behind, but I would say since Lent started I've done this more days than not, so a success
+ Read Simply Tuesday - not done

+ make bed daily - ehh...I did it more than not, but I'm still not in a habit
+ tidy up daily, especially the kitchen - this one was hard, but waking up each morning to a clean kitchen was so refreshing that I'll keep it going


+ 10,000 steps 5 times a week
+ track food
+ less after dinner snacking

+ finish my Lent devotional

+ continue making the bed and tidying the kitchen daily
+ make at least 2 donations this month

+ set goals and work times for my Rodan + Fields business and follow through
side note: I took January and February "off" from doing R+F work and now I am ready to jump in again. Rodan+Fields is such an amazing opportunity that even though life is a little overwhelming right now, I just can't walk away from it! It is SO much more than skincare or a "little side business" - if you want to know more, I'd LOVE to share with you about my little break and why I love it too much to let it go. 

Overall, I am really loving setting these monthly goals so far. Sitting down to review my month and start fresh at the beginning of a new one brings a lot of intention to my days, and also a breath of hope for each month.  Thanks Elizabeth and Sarah!

Baby Boy #3!

We are expecting baby boy #3 and since I documented a good amount of my pregnancies with the older two, I want to at least start off giving this one the same treatment! I am due May 25th, though he'll probably come around the 18th by c-section. We found out in my 18 week appointment that we were having a boy and I can honestly say I've been super excited since. With two older brothers already ruining, I mean running, the house, I'm happy to bring another boy into our crazy. This pregnancy will always be remembered by having to have my gall bladder removed at week 11. As soon as I hit 6 weeks I started having intense gall bladder pain. I've dealt with gall stones since Canon was born, but they were always singular events that would pass in about 4 hours, and this pain was consistent and all day/night long. The doctors I saw encouraged me to manage it with diet and hope to get to 16 weeks before discussing surgery. I tried everything, which pretty much meant eating noth...

His and Hers

Aaron has officially started his second year of seminary! To commemorate, I thought I'd paste the answers to some questions we were both recently asked. A way to get an idea of both sides of our life right now. My answers: How did you spend your summer?  We had the best summer! Aaron took Hebrew in June and July, and I had my first summer as a stay at home mom. We went to the beach, pool, the library, visited Chicago and came to Alexandria twice!!  What are you most looking forward to (in your 2nd year at Seminary)?  The “cloud” over the 2nd year is getting ready for our vicarage. We’ll meet with the placement director in October and will find out the location in April! So there will be lots of hypothetical conversations, wishlists and prayers leading up to that!  Otherwise, I’m excited that we’ll be just minutes away from our church and school. I hope to get our whole family to matins more weekdays than not and Canon will begin a first communion class this ...

Fort Wayne Fun!

To be honest, when Aaron told me we were likely moving to Fort Wayne, Indiana....I wasn't thrilled at the geographical part of that statement. I didn't know much about the midwest and thought that Fort Wayne was a tiny town with lots of cows, corn and not much else. Thankfully, I was wrong! Fort Wayne is actually awesome. There are TWO Chick-fil-a's, lots of parks and playgrounds, rivers that run through, an awesome Children's zoo and much more. Here just a quick snapshot of some of the fun we've had this summer in Indiana. Camping - friends invited Aaron and the big boys on their first overnight tent camping experience! This state park was just 45 minutes from our house. I came up with the littles, then left way late to sleep in our own beds! The next morning they got to canoe! Hiking - we had a goal of hiking each Saturday morning that was free this summer, and we succeeded twice! Once in town, and once just about an hour away. So fun to be in the ...
