January Goals

Happy, happy Wednesday!!! Well, I know we are already half way through the month, but when I asked about blogging this year, monthly goals was a big one to bring back, and I love them too, so I thought today would be a fun day to share my January Goals! Just a few simple goals for this first month of the year.

January is always a month of fresh starts and sometimes I think it's easy to feel the "pressure" to make and complete goals can be high, but I kept mine a bit simple, and I've really enjoyed just a few things to "check off," while enjoying the slower pace and rest that comes with January for us. 

1. Clean out our downstairs closet. 

This one was honestly mainly out of necessity hahaha and I'm pretty sure this has been a goal for me almost every year because we have one closet downstairs and it's role has changed many, many times over the course of us living here. It has held everything from our coats and vacuum to toys, baby things, fall decorations, gift bags, party decorations, shoes...you name it, it has probably lived in this closet at some point. But every Christmas I feel like I start to realize how much has piled up in there, and it's always just "time." So, nevertheless, it's time. 

2. Finish all of our Christmas returns, to-dos, and errands.

Well, this one just seemed to pile up because toward the middle and end of December, I just kept putting things in one spot for "after Christmas," and then after Christmas came, and I realized my pile and list grew pretty long. From returns to wrong sizes, things we borrowed from friends, small little tasks that got pushed to the new year, it's my goal to check them all of this month!! 

3. Walk a mile every day. 

And lastly, a mile a day...I had to do it again! I just LOVE a walking goal and this one is just my absolute favorite. It's attainable and simple, but yet still stretches me. It gets me outside, which I love. It gets the kids involved, which I also love. It gets us moving, helps us have something to be excited about and is just fun to "check something off" every day. I have two mile long loops in our neighborhood, so usually the kids and I pick one and off we go! Strollers, scooters, coats, hats, apple slices, water, you name it, we've probably brought it, but we're working our way through the miles for sure! 

And there you have it...just a few simple goals for our January! You can find all of my goals from the past few years here as well. I always love hearing what everyone is up to each month as well!!! I hope everyone's January has been filled with lots of rest and simple to-dos and goals as well! Thanks for following along in this journey! And here's to enjoying the little things, celebrating the big things, and soaking in all the moments in-between!! 

Sending lots of love!
