So I decided to change up mommy check in for awhile to make it more interesting for everyone. The idea of the new format is to post some goals that you want to accomplish during the week. The following week we will set new goals for ourselves but also discuss how we did with the past weeks goals. The idea is that sometimes if you tell everyone what your going to do, it helps you really get it done.

1.Goals this week?

2. How did your goal go from last week?

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week?

Bri&Shane_3/8/08 · September 2009

I like this new format a lot. Although the previous format was great to read, I felt I couldn't really contribute with a newborn. Thanks so much!

1.Goals this week? To eat better to lose some of this baby weight.

2. How did your goal go from last week? This is my first week setting a goal.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week?
I go to the gym with my mom twice a week for an hour and leave Jackson at home with Daddy.

KNemo · September 2009

Goals for this week: Make it through my first week on WW, without totally losing my mind. It has been hard and I am only on day 2. Guess that is what happens when you spend over a year eating whatever you want, in any quantity you want.
We didn't start this last week, but my goal for last week was: to start moving again, and to get on the plan. I did it, so I guess that goal was a success.
What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks throughout the week? I take really long, hot showers when DH comes home from work. I also go out and run errands by myself. Doesn't sound like much, but it's all I can do right now. My little punk won't take a bottle, so I can't leave him for that long. It's just torture for DH and baby. Someday!

cmcmillan · September 2009

1.Goals this week? To do better cleaning the house.

2. How did your goal go from last week? First week setting goals.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? Work 2 nights, run errands on my own.

stacylu · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Survive the first birthday and get everything ready for her party on Saturday

2. How did your goal go from last week? I'm still working on party stuff

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? Hand off to DH for a 20 min break. I also go walking during my lunch hour.

keri1013 · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Try to figure out how the heck to fit in some exercise.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Well, I didn't do much exercise so I guess not so well.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I work part-time so that is adult time, even though I miss Max like crazy. On weekends I will usually go out and run some errands by myself. Yesterday I had a great girl day doing TTD!

greenmtbride · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Get all of Liam's things ready for daycare and survive my first two days at work.

2. How did your goal go from last week? n/a

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? Hand off to DH and try to workout or run errands.

BriAndSean · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Plan a no-baby getaway.

2. How did your goal go from last week? n/a

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? Go to work... seriously! My drive in is my alone time.

hugsfromtrina · September 2009

1.Goals this week? I would really like to organize my paperwork2. How did your goal go from last week? n/a3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? usually once a week I pick a store to browse in before I pick up Ky.

MrsEditorJax · September 2009

1.Goals this week? CLEAN. I am leaving for Florida a week from Wednesday and I want the house spotless (even if DH will still be here to potentially spot it back up).

2. How did your goal go from last week? I made a list of things to do one day last week at 4 a.m. on my BlackBerry -- and made it through about half. I did not get any major cleaning done, so I am not pleased about that.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? DH gives me Saturday and Sunday afternoons to do things if I want to, and he and Collin watch football. So I get what I can done during the week, and anticipate those weekend days. My mom also comes with Collin and I when we go to Costco or Macy's sometimes, and I am able to go wander around or actually look at stuff.

WatchPot · September 2009

1.Goals this week? I'm traveling for work for 5 days, so make sure DH has everything he needs before I leave; Groceries, easy to make/eat food, clean clothes. I also need to get out invites to DS's birthday party, and I'm looking for some patio furniture. Any idea who might still have some in stores?

2. How did your goal go from last week? Last week's goal with the invites: So not well!

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I work out before work in the morning so I can have the time to myself and get ready at the gym so I don't have to worry about being too loud and waking up DS or DH.

chibipoe · September 2009

1.Goals this week? To pack my lunch and snacks for the day in the evening so that I'm not running around trying to put together food on my way out the door.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Mission accomplished, still don't feel great about it but I did it and that's all I'm going to say about that

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I get home from work before DH and DD, it gives me enough time to just veg on the couch with an oreo or two for a few minutes before I get dinner going. It's my sanity saver.

pinktulips · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Get the basement unpacked and the first coat of paint on Luke's bathroom.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Well, last week I had the same goals and I did nada. thhhhbbbbtt! Hopefully I am better this week.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I don't have something set in stone, but starting next month I hope to join a stictch and b!tch group at the library.

preston18 · September 2009

1.Goals this week?get the kitchen prepped for painting the cabinets. And pick out the paint color.

babyaustin725 · September 2009

I like the new format as well. It makes me feel like I'm still part of the group.

1.Goals this week? Get one of three projects at work finished and follow the afternoon/evening schedule I created for Tillman which includes only ONE TV show instead of a few.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Last week was ridiculous because James worked nights. Hopefully we'll get back on track this week.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I work part time and Tillman is in school. I get plenty of breaks.

braveangel2 · September 2009

1.Goals this week? To make Spagetti...and to tidy up the house from our whirlwind weekend. To get my child to sleep!

2. How did your goal go from last week? Really well...we got to the TTD session on time!

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? Read, get on the computer, visit my mom and hand her the baby so I can veg. Driving to work in my car without E has been great too.

zulan78 · September 2009

1.Goals this week? To buy my dh his birthday gift. He thinks I bought it already but I haven't. I know what to buy him already but it's kind of something we'd both use but he really wants. Plus he checks our cc statement online all the time everyday so I have to do some last minute shopping so he won't see what I bought.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Well, let's just say I have been doing research to find the perfect one to buy.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? I'm starting to meet up with my two girlfriends on a weekly basis now that summer is over so that will be a great mommy break.

llking_2984 · September 2009

1.Goals this week? Pump more often so I can have a stock pile of 2-3 full 4oz bottles for when I got back to work on Thurs. And spend every waking minute with my little guy since I do have to go back to work.

2. How did your goal go from last week? Pretty good. I did lots of cleaning, seemed like my nesting came post baby. And I also got all my last minute phone calls, Dr appts, dentist appts scheduled for all of us.

3.What do you do to give yourself little mommy breaks during the week? When he sleeps I try to get sometime by myself. Or when DH gets home from work I pass him off for a few hours until he needs to eat again.
