Two Weeks Already...

So, it has already been 2 weeks with this new little addition. I feel as though we are adjusting well...so far! My boys have been great. A few little sleeping quirks and Cam is a crazy 1.5 year old...but other than that they are loving their little sister. Mom needs advice on how to keep the house cleaned so if anyone can tell me how to do that with 3 kids...please any advise will be appreciated!


Happy Halloween!!

No advice on how to keep the house clean. Seriously. I told Kirk last night that there is apparently no such thing as "keeping up" with the housework anymore. I've really had to adjust my mindset, and now I try to view anything I do manage to accomplish as success. Most days, it's not much.

Keeping the house clean will happen in about 10+ years. Enjoy them, they grow too fast. There will always be house work to do.

SO SO SO CUTE I miss her and those sweet boys so much! please tell them we love them. She is such a little ben i love it. I think right now the only advice i have is to REST and TAKE I am sure it will come in time once the baby gets older! Just take this time forget your house and lose yourself in your kids:) I have the best saying for you, my mom gave it to me when kaden was born hope you like it. " Cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow for babies grow up we've learned to our sorrow.... so quiet down cobwebs..dust go to sleep.... I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep" love you steph

There is no answer...but just don't worry about it cuz it's not worth it! Enjoy your baby and who cares if there is laundry everywhere...that's what I keep telling myself!

Seriously, my house is never clean. I wouldn't even worry about it. You need your rest! She's so so cute. I can't believe I still haven't seen her. Hopefully next week!

I love the potato head pumpkin heads. So funny! Your boys look happy so you've got it figured out!

As far as the house goes. #1 Let it go. LOL #2 If you must.... then only do clean up twice a day. Nap time, and bedtime. None other is ever worth it.. or you are cleaning all day and never spending time with your kids. I have started to get the toy/bedroom clean up habit with the kids right before naps, and right before bed. Getting them involved and in the habit helps big time, and teaches responsibility on a small scale for little ones. believe it or not, with good follow through and an involved mommy they are totally capable and proud to be helpful and exicted to see the job done. Good luck.

She's a cutie and I guess now you have to change the title of your blog unless Mom is going to run away.

What, didn't you just have a baby!!! I'm not even sure I knew that you were expecting. I've been out of the loop on life for a couple of months now. Congratulation!!! I can't wait to meet Elliot in person. We moved about 13 hours closer to you. We are on 123rd south. Call me or email me. amycannonatgmail.com
