1. Have a date night with Kevin.
We just simply could not make this one happen in August, so I’m pushing it to this month.
2. Have a mommy/son date with Brady.
This one is long overdue as well. I can’t wait for some special one-on-one time with him. I may even see if Kevin wants to trade because I sense that Brady could use some one-on-one time with Daddy.
3. Finish up necklace board.
I’m proud of myself for starting on this project, but now I need to push through and finish it up. I’m anxious to see the final product and to finally get my necklaces more organized.
4. Install plumbing & light fixtures in the upstairs bathroom.
The major grunt work has been completed and now we move onto the “fun” part like putting it all together.
5. Finish reading Raising Your Spirited Child*
I’m too embarrassed to even talk about this.
6. Consign/donate the kid’s clothes.
It’s consignment sale season and I’m ready to clear out as much as we can. I’m holding onto Brady’s clothes for Davis, but purging as much of Savannah’s and Davis’ clothes as I am able. If I weren’t trying to save up for a few things, then I’d donate every last bit of it. I love purging!
7. Buy a new computer.
This has been on our list for a while now, but the funds just recently became available. We are thankful to be able to move forward on this and I hope it will allow for more blogging! Sharing a laptop with my teacher husband {who also just started grad school classes} has not been easy. Feel free to give me your suggestions on a good laptop that will primarily be used for blogging and web browsing.
8. Get both vehicles inspected.
It’s that time of year and I’m anticipating some hefty repairs. Both of our vehicles are over 10 years old, so it’s to be expected. I’ll be pleasantly surprised if I’m wrong though!

My youngest child is 2 and I feel like for the first time in years I am able to get some stuff done, although still slowly and clumsily! I'm really impressed the amount you are able to do with your littles!

I know what you mean! It's so hard to get much done with the kids in tow. I'm in trouble when the baby drops his morning nap! 🙂

I don't know if you have an electrician or not but I HIGHLY recommend TJ Day (cell # is 804-305-1202). So trustworthy and honest! I trust him to be in our home even with my young son around. Best of all, it's him and 2 other guys – he doesn't outsource your work to random people you've never met before. I hate that. I'm not affiliated with him or anything, I just like seeing nice, honest people do well!

I will keep that in mind! My uncle used to be a full time electrician, so we usually give him a call, but I appreciate the info. I may need to use it if my uncle is busy! 🙂
