Hi there! Happy Wednesday!
My scheduled post decided to somehow unschedule itself, so if Monday’s post got to your email late I apologize! I have yet to miss a blog post in almost two years, but now I’ve officially had a late one…for those of you who know me know admitting this makes me *cringe*. But hey, it’s 2016, and one of my goals that you’ll read about below is patience, so that should include with myself? RIGHT?! For the past 5+ years I have written out my New Year’s resolutions and they have been lofty, but I haven’t stuck to them like I would like. So, this year I decided to share my three New Year’s resolutions, or as I’ve decided I’m going to call them “goals”, with you to hold myself accountable. If you’d like to leave yours in the comments or send them to me via social media, please feel free to do so!
Leah’s New Year’s Goals 2016:

1. Instagram More Regularly
This may seem like a silly goal to a lot of you, but as someone who has a blog and YouTube channels, I want to be better about sharing on Instagram because I know that is a hugely popular social media forum. I love Instagram, but I want my feed to reflect myself, my blog, my message, and have a theme.
2. Blog and YouTube Improvements/Learning/Love/Growth
I want to continue to create reliable, consistent, and quality work for all of you on both this blog, as well as my YouTube channel, and my family Daily Vlog channel.
3. Have More Patience
I want to have more patience with my children, my husband, and myself. And just patience in general.
If you’d like me to check in or follow up with my progress, I would be more than happy to do so! This post is for me to make myself stay accountable, and for you to see some raw honest real-life resolution/goal setting. If I can do it, you totally can do it!! I hope your 2016 is THE BEST year yet!

Awesome Goals! I feel like I have a lot of goals but have not sat and really reflected on what they mean and what I am going to do to obtain them. I make goals daily for my job and for my students that I just get pushed to the wayside. Here are things I am thinking…
. Finish my Master’s and start/complete my vocational certificate
2. Update cover letter resume and other important documents. I have have so much paperwork in my life that if there isn’t a deadline and I have to turn it in and be accountable it gets pushed to the side so the other paperwork can be completed. I need to make time for my own personal paperwork.
3. Be the best wide and mom while finding balance in this crazy life
4. Enjoy every moment this summer with my new addition while spending quality time with my son and husband
5. Be the best, fit mother possible. I really want to concentrate on my health this year. I have It Works to help as well as a gym in the garage now! Yay!
6. Lastly, do some of the pinterest projects I have pinned!
7. Oh wait… try to vacation with my kids. We have lacked in this area since SJ was born because he isn’t a good traveler. I would love to come up and visit like we have been planning! Nicole Himebaugh and I were talking about doing a little over the 4th of July visit??? Not exactly that day but sometime that week since both of our families have it off!!!! We will talk about that soon! 🙂
Lots of goals!!!
