January Goals

Raleigh Family Maternity Photographer

I get really excited about January because it’s a lot calmer and I can catch up on some hobbies and do other fun things. With the cold though, you better believe all those fun things will be inside, ha!

• Get the boys hair cuts before our Disney trip
• Pick up snacks for the road + pack for Disney
• Read and journal in my new GraceLacedbook (So excited about this book. I’m also reading this bookand loving it so much!)
• Finalize Valentine’s Minis with Ericka (meeting this morning!)
• Bake cookies 1-2 times this month and keep practicing with icing consistency. (It’s kind of hilarious. I spent two hours making royal icing the first time.) I am not interested in making the boys elaborate birthday party cookies but just some fun stuff we can make at home. I just got these cookie cutters and I LOVE them. You can color the dough, (get this from Sweet Sugar Belle at Michael’s. And always take a 40% off coupon)  stamp the design, and the stamp openings are big enough for flood icing. Possibly the best possible way to make cookies for a newbie.
• Start Supporting Heart’s Cry  monthly. I first met Misty at Owen’s school and heard their story. It’s absolutely incredible.
• Catch up on all fall blogging as much as possible
• Try out Jonas Paul eyewear for Owen
• Plan out all Spring Mini dates (meeting with Ericka today!)
• Plan a girls night to AR Workshop to make artwork with our wedding vows
• Get more information on volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House in Chapel Hill
• Books I want to read this month (because I can actually read in January, yay!)
•                   Before We Were Yours, and,L’Appart: The Delights and Disasters of Making My Paris Home
• I also want to read this one with the kiddos –I’m Just No Good at Rhyming: And Other Nonsense for Mischievous Kids and Immature Grown-Ups
• What are you reading this month? I’m always looking for great ideas!!! And Happy January!
• the boys + their cousins (below)P I N this to pinterest

• As Seen in People Magazine + The Bump
