3 in 30: September: Week 4 Update and Month in Review

Here's a look at my progress for September's goals:

1. Me- Simi success- Again, no sewing but I did get craft time in and made Maddy a scrap tutu. I didn't really make my sewing goal for the month but I did make my goal of doing something I enjoy, even with the lack of time lately. That's a success in my book!!
2. Kids- Success! Again, nothing big but Maddy and I did spend some one-on-one time through out the week and on Tuesday we both had chiropractor appointments again. I never wanted our one-on-one time to only be big things like our mall date. So this has definitely been a success!!
3. Family- Fail. I knew this was going to be the difficult one so it's not a surprise that this one was not a success this month.

Again, this week wasn't perfect but it was a good week! Over all, this month has been good! I've started brainstorming on goals for next month, which starts Saturday!

3 in 30: September: Week 3 Update

Here's a look at my progress for September's goals:

1. Me- Simi success- No sew but I did get craft time in and made yarn dolls.
2. Kids- Success! Nothing big but there were a couple times this week that Maddy and I were home alone and Tuesday we both had chiropractor appointments. Sometimes even just a car ride is nice b/c she's not getting interrupted by Sean all the time.
3. Family- Simi success- The kids and I went for a walk.

Again, this week wasn't perfect but it was better!

3 in 30: September: Week 1 Update

Here's a look at my progress for September's goals:

1. Me- Fail, I didn't do any sewing this week.
2. Kids- Success! Last Saturday Maddy and I had a mall date. We went tap shoes shopping b/c she starts dance this Saturday! Then we had some ice cream in the food court. I've posted pictures on my facebook page. Then one afternoon Sean took a nap (a rarity here) and Maddy woke up before him or my daycare child. So, Maddy and I sat on the couch and just talked.
3. Family- Fail...

Two fails but one success. This coming week will be better!

3in30: September

I was doing my morning blog reading this morning and came across a post about 3in30. I was intrigued. I checked it out and have decided to give it a try. It's based on the thought that it takes 21 days to create new habits. Each month (about 30 days) you pick 3 goals. Each week you post about your progress.

My goals for September:

1. Me- With two, soon to be three kids, a house and a home daycare, me time gets put on the back burner. I can't tell you the last time I sat down at my sewing machine...not including sewing patches on my dad's scout uniform. Last winter I bought all the supplies to make myself a quilt and never touched it. It's about time I make it! In September, I will make time once a week for sewing.
2. Kids- Sean and I have gotten serious about his school time in the last couple of weeks. This is great! He's loving it and probably the part that he loves the most is the one-on-one time with me. The downfall to this is I'm realizing that Maddy and I are lacking this one-on-one time. In September, I will make time for one-on-one time with Maddy at least twice a week.
3. Family- As a family, we could afford to become more active. In September, we will do something active at least once a week. For example: go for a walk or bike ride. I'm starting small on this one because I think we can succeed on this and add to it later.
