posting ideas

I alway find that my best blogging topics come right before I'm going to go to sleep. As I lay in bed my brain gets going and i starting writing whole blog topics in my head and then by morning they are gone. Doesn't make for a very interesting blog though that way :( I really need a paper and pen right beside by bed so i can just jot down the idea...might help me sleep faster too if I do that :)

Growing up!!

So much has happened in such little time.

Sophia is now 5! I can't believe it! We had a birthday party for her and invited some of her friends. Only 2 could make it but that was ok and it was all nice and relaxed. The kids played while the adults chatted :)

Seth now has glasses and has been wearing them all day for the past couple days except for lil breaks here and there. He's also doing much better about being dry in his pants and finally is wearing underwear! YAY! We found some that were just like daddie's and he does awesome in them! Next month he'll be turning 3! OI!

Evan is now Walking! Yes walking at 13 months old! He's so cute as he toddles about learning and getting better everyday and going further each day too! He's starting to play more with the other kids too which is cute...or should I say he attacks them! lol!

More Creativity with a touch of Cleanliness

I've slowed down on making things but haven't stopped which is nice. I've since my last entry made another dolly blanket for my daughter but bigger of course since she wanted it big enough to cover her barbies...Though I have since been informed that it isn't big enough either...*sigh* just can't keep her happy lol! I've also finally started the baby quilt that bought to make for my youngest. It's all put together, I just have to do the quilting(?) part of it. It's very cute and has clothes on a clothesline and puppy dogs, ducks and bugs. I'll have to take a picture of it and post when I am done.

Otherwise I've been working on cleaning and decluttering and also keeping my kitchen fairly cleaner than usual the past couple days. I have to say that it's been working and I've had a cleaner kitchen and it feels great! I just need to keep it up and not get lazy. It's actually easier to keep it up than I thought and I just need to remember that on the days I just don't want to clean. It's deffinitely easier to put 2 or 3 dishes in the dishwasher rather than 15 or more because they've built up, and so on and so on. I have to admit I am a clutter bug. It's not that I don't like things all neat and tidy, but I get lazy and don't want to do it and piles of stuff build up. I don't really have people over a whole lot because of this and if i do, i normally clean the whole day before. We'll see how long this lasts though...I think last time i made it about 3 weeks. Here's hoping it sticks!!

Btw My oldest baby is 5 today! I can't believe it!
