Tuesday Tips – Window Cleaning

Oh the windows, we all love windows right? I love opening the blinds and letting in some sunshine. What I don’t love is opening the blinds to find finger prints, and smears of who knows what streaking across the glass. Not to mention the same smears on the blinds. Maybe you don’t have kids and […]

Tuesday Tip – Cleaning the bathrooms

Tuesday Tips I dread cleaning the bathrooms. I don’t know why, it’s probably one of the quickest rooms in the house to clean.

Kids and Dish Soap

What happens at your house when you think your kids are being good?  At my house it usually consists of doing something they really shouldn’t.  The opposite is true too. If I think they’re getting in to things, they’re usually just playing with their toys.  Here’s a good example.  Earlier this week I had been […]

Basement Remodel Caused Domestication

I just love the way our basement is looking! We got the painting done over the weekend, and then yesterday the old vinyl was pulled up.  Sadly, the color is not exactly what we chose. We were going for this color called serenity, but to save a little money, we had the paint guys at […]

5 minutes alone, what will your children do?

This morning started out pretty nice. Princess V woke me up and then went to read stories to Princess R in her crib. It was really cute. We had a relaxing breakfast and let Mark and Chloe sleep some more. Once Chloe was up and fed, I headed back downstairs to wake up Mark and get […]
