Decluttering: Expectations vs. Reality
I'm definitely a freak for a clean house, but who else gets royally jazzed up over having the chores done? Last Thursday afternoon I went to my couch, commandeered my television from my kids, and faced Mount Laundry yet again. After seeing some people post about the show Tidying Up on Netflix, I decided to … Continue reading Decluttering: Expectations vs. Reality
Well, You Broke It
Boys, am I right? Right now my two and three-year-old are wrestling by my feet on the couch, action figures are all over the table and my coffee is getting cold.

The Baby Tipped His Highchair
My two younger boys have a tendency to rock in their seats, whether it be an actual rocking chair, on the couch or in their highchair.

Moms That Are Doing The Most
Can we leave being super extra as a mom back in 2017? Just kidding, kind of.
