Month Goals For February and Celebrating 5 Years of Blogging

February is always a huge month for me. It is the anniversary of when I started blogging. It has been 5 years since I started this blog. When I started out I had huge goals, I ran into what I wanted my goals for my blog to be the other day. I have kept notebooks of all my ideas and thoughts.

Those goals were to do gross motor posts and find a way to make my blog help other people who might have the same struggles as my family does.

Looking back I would love to say that I might have done some of my goals. I have not done as much gross motor post as I would like. And I think that might change. It is not well known, but my degree is in Physical Education and is what I did for a while. I think kids and moving should be fun and creative. I can see me doing more posts for this…so keep an eye out for them!

I would also love to hear how 3 Dinosaurs has helped YOU in the last 5 years! What has been the most help for you? And what would you love to see in the next year?

I can’t wait to hear your answers.

Each month I have three different areas that I work on: Blog, Family, and Personal. Why have three areas? Because there are the three essential parts of my life and each has different goals.

Each month the list change or stay the same because I need those reminders that I can check off. I’ve been filling the bigger goals on my monthly calendar so I can always look at them. Then check them off when they are doing. The simple ones go on my daily to-do list to check off.

February is a fun month for us we do so much and enjoy it. I’m looking forward to the month. I was not great at cleaning and getting stuff done last month. This month I hope to do better. I’m working on a wall art for our theme of the year: “A Clean House is a Calm House”. Maybe I’ll have it out next month. I need to have the reminder up for me to see.

February is breaks and snow days. I’m always preparing boxes that I can just pull out, and we do the activity. It can be a mix of things.

    1. They are fun and my girls love the idea I have secret boxes hidden that we can do that have something they love. If we don’t use them on a snow day they make good mom sick day or summer rainy day boxes.
