31 Days to Clean... maybe...

31 days to clean! This is what I need. Day 1 was today. The task for the day, the kitchen. Dishes, Ugh! (My second least liked chore, actually third least behind trash and toilet)

We recently switched up jobs and the new person responsible for dishes is still learning. This has created quite a back up this past weekend and lots of work for Momma.

So, it seems like a good day for the kitchen. Well that is until this happened and we needed to make sure he would be okay.

(Dropped concrete block on it)

And then errands that needed to be run for Daddy for business. And of course the usual: nursing baby, school with the girls, diapers, meals, baths and all that fun stuff.

And don't let me forget that I didn't realize that we were out of both dishwasher detergent and dish soap until after we were home from being out and about.

We have just finished supper. I am waiting for hubby to get home from class and an impromptu trip to the store for said soaps.

Because, I have no system for cleaning other then do the next thing. My house is normally a wreck and it must be brought under control. I will get my kitchen done today! (At least the corner pictured above, which is really the worst of it anyhow)

UPDATE: Dishes all done. Corner of the kitchen cleaned.

Not the Momma I thought

This was written January of 2014 Last night I baked cookies with my doodle. My youngest girl, my sweet Sam. I didn't do it because I wanted to. I didn't do it because I had a hankering for something sweet. I did it because I didn't want her to ask me anymore. You see my oldest decided she wanted to make cookies for another Awana club on Sunday. We got the chocolate chips. Had her pull the ingredients down. Showed her where the recipe was on the bag. Told her to have fun, she was on her own. This "was her thing". The two oldest made cookies. Sweet Sam was left out. Since, my sweet doodle has been begging (at times whining) to make cookies, cause this Momma promised we would. She was right. I promised. I didn't give an exact day or time. I don't know how I will feel from one moment to the next with these crazy pregnancy hormones. And h...

Happy Birthday to me!

Actually it was yesterday but I'm just now getting around to writing about it. It was not quite as eventful as birthdays when I was a kid. They never seem to be anymore. The last one that a fuss was made over was 18 (I didn't do the whole "21" thing). These years they just seem to come and go like about everyother day, with the added benefit of dinner out. This one has definietly made memorable. It really was a great day depending on what perspective you take. I must say last year I wouldn't have looked on it all with such optimism. It started with breakfast with Belle and Cinderalla at Chick-fil-a. And of course my three most precious princesses were there to enjoy it with me. I even talked my hubby into coming and being our photographer for the morning. We made tiaras and the girls had their nails painted. Then they played in the Princess Bounce House. It was some very enjoyable girl time. After breakfast we went to Michaels. I haven't been th...

On the First Day of 1st Grade

We started school today! It is still hard to believe that Catherine is already at the "schooling" age. We are using My Fathers World again this year as we were pleased with Kindergarten and are looking forward to all that this curriculum offers. Unfortunately our school day did not get off to the start that I had hoped and planned for. My calendar still isn't ready (oh well) - I did however have everything I needed for the lessons today. There is a rule to Homeschooling - I'm not sure if anyone has ever written on it - I am sure some wise person has, as I have heard it over and over again. "Do not plan anything in day during lesson time." (ie. appointments, errands, etc.) If you do it is so hard to get back to "school". Well my nurses visit to confirm pregnancy was this morning at 10 - right in the middle of the school day. With God's help we prevailed this afternoon and stuck to the plan that we mapped out for our "school" ...
