In May I will....update!

I obviously scheduled this to post today but didn't update it all the way. So here's the updated version:

So I set myself some goals for May. I like goals because if you tell someone what you want to do, then you feel worse if you don't do them. Here's my update on how I've done this month!

• Read more. I've read 100 pages in a week. That's a record! I'd like to make a goal of 20 pages a day

 This is an ongoing goal. I am finally almost finished with a 350 page book that has taken me almost 2 months to read. I have a bad habit of staying up until I'm ready to sleep and then wanting to sleep when I get to bed. When M naps, I nap or get caught up on tv or internet stuff.

• Be crafty. Whether it's with Madison or scrapbooking at night. I need to do something.

Nothing...

• Work on Madison's 2 year photobook. She will be 2 in 4 months(!!!!) and I don't want to wait till the last minute like I did with her 1 year book.

Started this...

• Bake more. Even just making Madison some nutritious stuff.

I did make some brownies last week. Does that count?

• Blog more non-Madison things.

Fail.

• Date Alan more. Even if we just meet up at the park on days his mom gets Madison.

We've talked about this and have decided to date at least once a month, just me and him. Get someone to watch Madison and go out.

• Use my real camera more.

I haven't used it much

• Try to be more social with moms. I find myself focusing on Madison at gymnastics and the library and I need to open up more. Make more friends and find Madison some friends too.

I have tried this. I've become more friendly with 2 moms at the library. One is talking about joining gymnastics when her daughter turns 16 months.

• Make/find someone to make a blog button and favicon and trade buttons with fellow bloggers. I'd like to up my reader count.  

Done! I figured it out on my own. It's not perfect but it works! Now I can trade buttons with fellow bloggers an hopefully get more readers! 

• Put my phone down more 

Well I try to not pick it up much during the day. When Alan gets home, I get on it a bit more.
