2025 Bucket List
I’ll be honest, keeping it together as a mom is hard. But this year, I’m focusing on small changes that help me feel a little more like me in the chaos. Here’s what I’m hoping to work on:
💪 Be more active
I’m not aiming for a total fitness transformation, just trying to move my body a bit more. Whether it’s a walk with the kids or dancing around the living room, I want to feel more energized.
💄 Put more effort into my appearance
Let’s face it—some days, I barely make it out of my pajamas. But I’m going to try to put a little more effort into getting ready, even if it’s just a quick skincare routine or wearing something that makes me feel good.
📚 Read 5 books
Not parenting books, promise. I just want to read for fun again. It’s been so long since I’ve sat down with a good book, and I’m excited to make it a habit again.
🎨 Find a hobby I enjoy
I’m hoping to find something for me this year. Maybe it’s a craft, a hobby I can do when the kids are napping, or even just watching a show uninterrupted.
📸 Take more photos (maybe start a scrapbook?)
Life with kids is beautiful and messy and I want to remember the little moments—so I’m going to be better about taking pictures.
💆♀️ Prioritize self-care
Self-care doesn’t have to be fancy—it’s the little things like a few minutes of quiet or asking for help when I need it. This year, I’m making space for that.
This year’s about progress, not perfection. I’m not going to have it all together, but I’m giving myself grace while I try to focus on the little things that matter. What’s on your list for 2025? Let me know! 👇
