First Day of my New Life

Hi :) I'm Amanda. I've been a stay at home mom for the last 5 years to two little boys, or monkeys as I call them. For the last 5 years, we've had no schedule or routines. We do whatever we like, whenever we like. It's been nice to have the flexibility but it also turns my life into chaos! I'm often stressed due to a huge Mt. Laundry growing in the bedroom, no answer to the "What's for dinner?" asked nightly, and being asked "Where is my ______?" daily. The list could go on forever.

Monkey number 3 is due in September. I'd like to get my life in order before then. I want to be a better mom and housewife.

I'm starting this blog to share my journey with others and to help keep myself accountable. I hope you encourage me along the way and join me on my journey. I know I can't be the only one on this journey. Here's to getting Organized and a fresh start!

Also wanted a place where I can dump any ideas that are floating around in my head or I come across while browsing the internet. Hope you find some inspiration here along the way. :)

Congrats on #3 - and on your new quest for order. I'm on the same quest myself and only have one little one to trip over!

Routines make all the difference.

The laundry mountain is a continuous challenge of mine, too. Some people say a load a day makes all the difference. It's the folding that always hangs me up.
