Monday Mind Dump

1. I am a perfectionist and it causes a lot of problems. I obsess over little things like Christmas card photos, the clothes Sarah wears and the coordinating bows, and whatever I cook/bake. I wish it was easier for me to not sweat the small stuff.
2. I find myself wishing there was more time in the day way too often. I think I need to reduce my to-do list.
3. I really enjoy getting to know other mothers near my age. I just wish I knew more of them. Sometimes being a mama can be lonely.
4. I get frustrated way too easily a lot of the time. I am working on it.
5. I need to remember that my dogs are just dogs. They don't deliberately try to make me mad. 
6. My husband does not set out to make my day harder, he really wants to help out and I should let him.
7. Having a mobile baby really makes you exhausted by the end of the day.
8. I should invest in some baby gates.
9. If there is one thing I don't want Sarah to have, she will find it.
10. I am excited to celebrate Christmas as a family of three. I can't wait to start our own traditions.
