Happy April Fool’s Day and happy April! It’s not only a new month, but it’s both Andrew and my birthday weeks! My birthday is Friday, and while we can’t do what we had originally planned I am enjoying a day at home with my favorite people. Obviously my March goals were written and posted before social distancing and shelter in place so some things were just not possible to do. But I do want to share my April 2020 goals as well as how I did in March.
April 2020 Goals
In March I wanted too…
Continue with my workouts, WW, and daily 10K steps: Yep I feel like I did really great this month and lost weight even with everything going on.
Read 3 books: Yes I read 4. Not much else to do haha.
Have a date night with Andrew: No we really couldn’t have any dates with closures and staying at home.
Finish April blog content: Yep that’s done.
Sign Liam up for swim lessons for summer: No because we don’t really know what summer will look like with the current state of things.
Do more activities during the week with Charlotte: Charlotte and I were supposed to start music class this month but we weren’t able to with closures.
Work on Instagram story-ing more and sharing more about my day to day life: I do feel like I have done better here.
Work on plans for our summer trips: We still have our trips booked but will cancel them closer to depending on whats going on. So we haven’t done much in the way of planning activities on them.
Have more focused 1:1 time with Liam: YES! One great thing that has come out of being at home is the time I am spending with Liam.
In April I want to…
Continue workouts, WW and 10K steps daily
Read 4 books (now that Charlotte isn’t up at night I don’t feel as tired)
Work on having a date night at home once a week with Andrew
Post more to Instagram
Work on Pinterest growth and scheduling
Work on May blog content and get it scheduled
Go through my closet and purge clothes/shoes
Re-organize Liams clothes and purge
Try to find an online music class I can do with Charlotte
Work on Liam’s homeschool work in a more organized way
Your list is so relatable! As a blogger, I can identify with having to schedule content and get more familiar with all the different aspects of social media platforms. I wish you happy writing and more date/1:1 time 😃😄
It’s amazing how quickly everyone’s plans changed in the last few weeks! I’ve also had to cancel soooo many things. Just yesterday I canceled a flight I had to go to Florida by myself for girl’s weekend with my family since I was going in 3 weeks. I just really hope that we can start to get back to normal in May and let the kids go back to school if even for a week or two to get closure on the school year. It sounds like you have some great monthly goals that still work while staying home.
I used to do a post like this every month and I found it was a great way to keep me accountable! Planning my blog content ahead of time is a great way to get content organized!
Today is Friday here so wishing you a very happy birthday ☺ My goal for this month is to stay fit and fine as personally am going through a very rough phase 😐
Awesome goals. I think my main goal is just living life one day at a time. It sounds so basic but in the world we live in right now, it Is the best thing we can do.
Happy April, Neely! Thanks for sharing your goals! ❤️✨

I might steal a couple of your goals. Reading 3 books and having more 1:1 time with my older kids sounds like a great plan to me!
Congrats on meeting your March goals! I love your April goal of finding an online music class – please share what you find!

Very solid group of goals. What 3 books did you read in March?
I need to have goals of my own! I really love yours, it is amazing especially reading four books. That is awesome…

These are great goals! Reading 4 books would be a tough one for me, but I like the idea!!
