Welcome 2010!

Well, I should (hopefully) be back for good this time. I have missed blogging terribly but I had so much going on with the kids and the holidays that it had to fall by the wayside. However, I'm excited to be back.

I'll start off with "Happy New Year!" and list my wishes for 2010. I saw that one of my blogger friends called them wishes instead of resolutions and I like that so I'm stealing it (thanks Stephanie!).

My wishes for 2010 are:
To stay active in my bible study/ devotion every day
To be a more present mom
To spend one-on-one time with Paisley and Colby every week
To do 1 educational field trip with them every other week (museums, aquarium, etc)
To blog regularly
To get rid of the residual baby weight by exercising at least 3 times a week and eating healthier
To stay off of the computer and keep the TV off between 5 pm and 7 pm every night - that will be just family time
To help Colby conquer potty-training
To say no to other people and yes to my kids more
To read at least 3 books this year (me personally)
To have family game night/ movie night once a week
To do at least one adventure race this year
To go through my closet and get rid of A LOT of my clothes (starting with my maternity clothes)
To learn to sell on eBay and rid myself of some things (simplify life)
To be a better mom and wife (always)
To have our family dinners mapped out for 2 weeks at a time instead of just 1
To limit computer/ TV time in the house
To read to the kids for (at least) 30 minutes a day
To enjoy every second (because it all goes by too fast)

Feel free to share some of your wishes for 2010 too.
Thanks.
Lisa

Very lofty goals, Lees! If you figure out the potty training thing, you will be my hero. Boys are SO hard!

And there is so much to be said for simplifying life. Jeff and I made it through our closet and both boys' last weekend and it felt so good. Bailey is up next.
