Mama Monday: Resolutions as a mom

Commence the eye-rolling, if you even decided to read this post. I thought I needed to publish it to hold myself accountable. Its that time of year to dream up unrealistic goals for ourselves, only to laugh at ourselves in a few months and continue on the way we were on December 31st. So, here goes:

1. Take 10 minutes to vacuum and baby-proof every day. With items such as drill bits and screws appearing daily in our house, it has to be done. And once she started crawling, her clothes have taken a beating from the hardwood grime.
2. Wean Larkyn off the pacifier by the time she is one. God help us all.
3. Learn how to take better pictures of her. I am trying really hard, but self-teaching and experimenting obviously isn't enough. This one might include allocating money for Photoshop, a better lens, and maybe a class? See how I worked in an allowance to my resolution? Nice.

That's it! I think I can do three. Honestly, #2 is going to be the most difficult, as I am already starting here and there to take it away when I can. She does not approve of this resolution, as you might expect.
