More Organization & Cleaning

Well January has proved to be a very productive month thus far. Still following along with the organization challenges daily. Super proud of the work that has been accomplished. Today I managed to organize the mail center and filing cabinet. Last night I cleaned out the fridge and cleaned the stove top.



It snowed here late last night. Roads have ice below snow, so traveling is not in my future for today. So since I'm home all day and the children are busy working away on their school work, I shall organize and clean some more. Just when I think I have organized the whole house, I find more.

I have really been wanting to organize the mail center for while. I usually open the cabinet, take a quick look, and close the door real fast, lol ;) As with everything, I hope since I put much work in, that it stays this way.

    
The lovely stove & fridge. I really wish I would have took before pictures.  Huge difference!

Many Blessing to all!

A little out of order.

So, in my previous posts, I told you about the organization challenges. Well I'm a wee-bit behind, but I'm gonna catch up. Today I managed to organize the spice cabinet as well as the medicine cabinet.  I'm headed to the bathroom cabinets next. 

The captions in the pictures say it all! What a mess it WAS.
"Was" is such a neat word. :)


I started by removing all contents, cleaning the cabinets, and finding a couple small bins. I lost count of all the empty spice bottles I threw out! Empty spice bottles? Why they were in there is beside me. ;)  I then started adding things back little by little. I'm super happy at the end result. I think abowlfulloflemons has turned me into a organizing monster, but I'm okay with that. 

Oh and finally the end result!

A New Dollhouse

Today turned out to be such a wonderful day. I begin our day organizing rooms and closets. This turned out to be a more drawn out process than I perceived. I was sure glad when we finished. There is such a joy about being organized. All of this was done by lunch, and to think I had put this off for months.

We also finished all of our school work and managed to get all of the floors cleaned and the stairs :)

Well on to the better part of my day.....

My mother-in-law came over and brought the coolest dollhouse. She got it at a garage sale for a couple bucks. Its very tall. There is definitely plenty of room for the girls to play with it together.

My husband and I put it together and the looks on the girls faces as it got bigger and bigger was so sweet. They were so eager to play with it.

Tomorrow we will be reading: When I Get Bigger by Mercer Mayer

This is a perfect pick and I picked it because of a conversation I had with Gracie.

Gracie informed me that she was going to sleep and gonna wake up bigger, and I told her she was correct, a night bigger :) and it takes a whole bunches of being a night bigger to be big like mom. :) she laughed!
