Today's Top 5 Goals!

So sometimes I feel so unproductive being a SAHM. I kind of feel like I don't contribute as much as I should, but my S/O tells me that I do enough and he appreciates me for it. Maybe I need to stop thinking so negative about myself so much...it's pretty hard since that's all I've ever had to hear were negative things that really affected me growing up. But back to my top 5 goals for today. I have been unproductive lately...shopping like its nothing (my S/O thinks I am crazy!) and I can't help it! LOL
Yesterday I went to go pick my sister and her "boyfriend" up. Ehh, not really a fan of her having a boyfriend at such as young age. But anyway, I shopped all day and came home right before S/O got home. I felt pretty bad, I'm out shopping while he's out working. But I am blessed to be where I am and blessed to have such a wonderful family. I figured why not make some goals everyday so that I CAN feel PRODUCTIVE.

Top 5 Goals List:
1. Finish washing all of the clothes we have and folding them. (I kind of lack at that department lol)
2. Sweep the floors
3. Try to make dinner before 5 as soon as the meat thaws (I lack at that department also)
4. Eat something!! (Abigail and I usually wake up at 11am everyday..yes I know I sound lazy!) I currently have my leftovers in the microwave...its beeping and telling me to come get it but I'm sitting here on the computer...lol
5. Try to tidy up a bit. Every time I do this...my S/O comes and puts his stuff everywhere! I swear I have to nag at him! Lol

What are your Top 5 Goals for today? I would love to hear it!

Anyway, Abigail's napping in her crib right now! Yay for that! She rarely sleeps in her crib. But now that we have a video monitor I can easily watch, hear, and see her! I'm putting it to use today. =)

This is only day one of testing it out but It works pretty well so far. Her room is pretty dark and I can see her clearly in it. We'll see how it works out. =)

  2. I have the Summer's Infant Sleek and Slender (I think?) Video Monitor. I've used it about 3 times so far and its been pretty good. Batteries run out fairly quick. I think it lasts 8-10hours the box says but I haven't tested it out over night yet just for nap time. I haven't had the guts to transition her to her crib. Lol I've also heard the Summer's Infant Day&Night Video Monitor has great reviews! That's what I was suppose to get at first but this one was on great clearance at Target for under 100 bucks (Originally 179.99) and I thought it was a great steal!
