Where to start....

We have a busy 2010 ahead of us. First, coming up this month I am due with our second baby. Then later in the Spring, we are moving...not down the street but across the country! So I have got my hands full with organizing projects around my house.

With the end of the Holiday Season, I thought it would be a great time to do multiple projects at once. A scary thought, but if you can plan it right, it can be a real time saver.

Things I need to do over the next couple of weeks:
1) Take down Christmas decorations. Pack them to move, not just to store.
2) Make room for baby (especially in this small house).
3) Begin to pack and ready our house to sell.

Today is start day. We are going to take down our decorations and pack them up. At the same time, I will be cleaning out the kitchen cabinets of any holiday kitchen wares and packing them to move. We rented a storage spot to clear out our house so that we can make sure things are straightened up for when it is time to hold open house. We'll be making a few trips over there the rest of the weekend to move out Christmas!

Once I get this done, I am on to finishing up getting ready for baby.

Happy New Year!


Welcome 2010! I hope everyone had a wonderful and warm Holiday Season.

With our new year, we will have many chances to become organized to make our lives more productive and efficient.
I look forward to sharing new ideas with you to get and stay organized.

Happy New Year!

Kids Toy Closet

After two years of having toys running around our living room, I decided to clean out a coat closet and turn it into a toy closet for our daughter. Now we don't have a large house with a lot of closets, but I was tired of having our space always having toys so I made the sacrafice. It was hard work to clean the closet out but was a very good excuse to clean out the clutter. And now, uur daughter knows she can go in there any time and also knows that is where things get put away. This project was totally worth it!
