Bucket List Updates

As many of you know, we did away with New Years Resolutions and started with a Bucket List this New Year. We have several goals on it for our family.

I thought I would share the highlights and the updates. Wayne's specific item was to be able to tie his shoes. Although, he cannot keep them tied and still messes up, he does tie them on his own now! He is continually working to make the bows even better.

Eve also had her own personal goal. Her goal is to be potty trained by the end of the year. In her true style, she is getting a head start on this goal by pottying when she just wakes up from her naps and in the morning. She is also loving sitting on the potty and trying. However, she is getting discouraged when she cannot go!

One of our family goals was to read 12 books together. So far we have finished 2. We read a realistic fiction book: Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing. We also read the fantasy by Roald Dahl: James and the Giant Peach. I think it is time for us to read an historical fiction book. Does anyone have any suggestions? We want to hit every genre.

Other goals we are working on are eating healthier, family game nights, and a new food a month.

I would like to give special thanks to my vegan friends, they know who they are, for the encouragement and help as we attack the veggies. I would also like to let my husband know how incredibly wonderful he is for the support in all of our family changes. He takes the new habits and enforces them for us all!
