Quarterly Goals {July/August/September}

Blogging//

Write 3-4 posts a week

Cultivate my blogging friendships

Grow my social media reach with emphasis on Facebook

I have stayed true to my blogging habits and have hit 514 page likes on Facebook! Blogging has opened up so many things for me, a creative outlet, great relationships and learning new things, but it is also time consuming and I've been feeling like I'm falling behind in reading and keeping up with everything. So forgive me if I have not read/commented on your blog recently. Finding balance here and it takes some readjusting.

Implement a toy rotation/storage system- I'll give this one half because I got a big bin to store toys in, we just don't have a set rotation schedule. Kinsey will ask for a new toy and when she does, we put back older ones. But it works for us so I'm content.

Utilize my Crock Pot more

Work on weeding and tending to the backyard and garden - holy moly! Having a garden is like having another set of green, leafy children needing your care. It's a fun hobby but it definitely is different than what I was imagining.

Family//

Start a "no phone zone" designation (saw this on Leah's blog and totally loved it) and be firm

Play more with Kinsey (as in she tells me what to do and I listen lol)

Once a month Date Night with Brian- and another half, we have been making time to watch some favorite shows at the end of the day which has been great but no actual dates have been had. I feel though that the intentional hang out time has been great so we can work up to date night and not feel deprived.

Daily Devotional, time in The Word. 

Continue to make time for reading, using Goodreads Reading Challenge

Use my FitBit to record daily steps - I was using my iPhone to record but since it's not always on me I miss out on steps so I just gave up altogether (recording my steps, not taking them haha)

Preschool//

Continue to plan material in advance, on Sundays

Find fun and educational Apps

Create printables for Kinsey

And then it turned into summer and my planning nosedived. We're still doing fun and educational things together but its definitely at a slower pace and we're both okay with that arrangement! After all, this is the last summer we have together before Kinsey goes to school, tear.

And now for July/August/September goals:
