Chore documentation

Yes yes I did make one for Kenner too. I absolutely love chore pad, but unfortunately for the boys, I don't get all their chores documented. I have had some time to peruse through many different blogs. I am sorry I don't remember where this came from (probably someone connected to a bowl full of lemons). It was super easy to make. I also made a night time one w moon and stars to help ease of bedtime too. We will see how this works.

What do you do to keep track of your kids chores?

My adorable pillow

So I cut my block of the month down so it wasn't do big. I decided he made a cute pillow. What do you think, Annie?

Kitchen reorganization

Thanks to a bowl full of lemons blog, I am embarking on an organization frenzy of my house. One area at a time. Here are some pics of before and after. Sorry no exciting clear pics, but hopefully you can get the gist. I got all my containers at dollar tree.

She actually spilt the kitchen and the pantry up, as did i. I am just getting around to posting both the pantry and the kitchen. I am also in the process of re doing the boys closet. It is farther down on the list for the bowl full of lemons, but I wanted to do it now w the change of clothes and attempting to establish some type of rotation w the clothes....or patton's teacher is going to think he has 4 tshirts.

Transformed

This picture would have happened one month ago only if the worlds largest bribe was taking place. For this i am so thankful. I need to be reminded of this picture when I am frustrated beyond belief in the mornings when Patton is refusing to wear anything but his batman shirt or the ninjago shirt or the angry bird shirt.

Yes I have tried it all to get the child to wear a variety of the cute clothes he has in his closet. Attempt 1: have him help me set outfits for the week. FAIL attempt 2: have him pick out the outfit the night before. FAIL. Attempt 3: hide the clean clothes so he had to pick something new. HUGE FAIL. Attempt 4: pick out an outfit, sleep in it, no fits in the am. FAIL.

So with the horrors I have for the morning hours, seeing my second born be proud to be a great artist my heart is filled.

March block from crafty

These blocks a lot more time only because I had to cut all the strips. A really fun quilt would be to take all my scraps left over from projects and putting them in a tub to put together on a rainy day. Guess I found myself another project.
