Short answer, no, but I still have time to make more progress! Here is an update, for anyone who may care.
Baking and Eating
1.
2.
3.
4. Make my own gnocchi
5.
6.
7. Make a soufflé that doesn’t suck. Didn't happen. I didn't try to make a souffle this year. Maybe next year! This was one of the only food related goals I had that I didn't complete. I wonder if that is directly related to my progress in the next section?
Health and Fitness
1. Run another half-marathon.- Just being honest here, but this ain't happening. This will be a goal for next year, though.
2. Run a race pushing each of my girls. - See above.
3. Reach my goal weight. (On track. I've joined WW and according to suggested healthy weight loss, I can meet my goal weight the week before I turn 30. Time to get going! UPDATE: Not going to happen, but I can be over halfway there. Any loss is good loss, so I'm not going to beat myself up over this one. FINAL UPDATE: I made some real good progress on this one. I'm on track to be there by this summer. Thank goodness for Weight Watchers!)
Home Improvement and Craftiness
1.
2. Finish Charlotte’s first year scrapbook. (In progress. I'm
3. Finish wedding scrapbook. I'm going to say this is unlikely. I might finish Charlotte's, though. Didn't finish this one, either
4. Finish Charlotte's cross-stitch. (In progress. I'm almost finished with the border and then only have accents to do.) SO. FREAKING. CLOSE. I will finish this thing if it kills me!
5. Start Audrey’s first year scrapbook. Nope. Poor girl.
6.
7. Sew a dress for both girls. Sewing machine is in the house, but not accessible right now, so this may prove difficult. If #1 on this list happens, this is next in line. FINAL UPDATE: Nope. Still trying to figure out how to thread the machine. I did, however, find the old manual online, so hopefully this winter I'll be able to spend some time figuring it out.
8. Make the throw pillows for our new bedroom. See above.

Travel
1. Take a weekend trip with Matthew. Nope. None with just him. It is hard to find the time!
2.
Loving St. Louis
1. Go to the Farmer’s Market at least once a month, even in the winter. (Failed
2. Take the girls to the Great Forrest Park Balloon Glow. Ended up scheduling the camping trip the same weekend as this. So we sat in the traffic for it, but didn't actually see it.
3.
4.
5. Take the girls up the arch. Didn't get to this, either. I will, though!
6. Take our family on a picnic. Sort of. We packed one, but ended up eating in the car because it was too cold. Does that count?
Making Me Better
1. Read 10 new books that are not work related. (Started Me Talk Pretty One Day, FINISHED House Rules by Jodi Picoult, Started 100 years of Solitude, FINISHED Vampire University 2/1/11, FINISHED The New York Reginal Mormon Singles Halloween Dance 1/12/11; FINISHED In the Sanctuary of Outcasts by Neil White; FINISHED Gaspipe: Confessions of a Mafia Boss 4/7/11) Didn't make this one. I did, however, finish A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Future a week after my birthday, so I was more than half way. My mom and dad bought me a Kindle for my birthday, though, so I'm hoping I'll get even more reading in while I'm 30.
