Today we ran some errands. The Baby has begun to be mobile! Well, that is a little of a stretch - when he starts in a seated position, he can fall onto his belly and kind of wiggle around. Needless to say, I need to be careful when he is on surfaces, like the bed! Last night he was restless and wouldn't sleep in his crib, he ended up in bed with us, which meant that I was cold and uncomfortable for the entire night! I have started to enjoy reading about organizing on the web, I love reading about other people's great ideas on keeping their home organized. I have even started to implement some of those ideas in the home.
I have started to organize the kids dresser drawers by folding the clothing and placing it in short side up (http://www.simpleorganizedliving.com/2011/08/13/clothes-clutter-organizing-all-your-accessories/). It works so well, I can fit twice as much clothing in the kids drawers this way...I'm not sure why though?
I started creating a binder to keep important items, it has turned out to be more like my real Pinterest board. I print out recipes and other interesting ideas and put them in the binder.
I have also started to keep small items in clear shoebox sized plastic containers which I label. This is helping alot with kitchen items that I don't use as often, and especially the kids toys!! I think I have purchased 40 of those boxes so far, and I like to ensure that I keep a few on hand, for those moments when I need to put something in it's place.
