Order please!!!
Well I have a nice little butter keeper that I bought when we moved to the country because there always seems to be at least a few flies in the house. You are thinking what does a butter dish have to do with a tidy house. Nothing really yet it is also an example of the crazy little things that go on around here that play havoc with my schedule. Now butter dishes come with a lid to keep dust and pests out. Remember these cute little guys the cats not the kids but their cute too!!!
Did you see it coming????? that is a really good reason to keep the lid on!!
Laundry is another task that I find a challenge to stay on top of. If I miss a few days look out I am stuck climbing Mount Washmore!! I find washing and drying it is not the hardest job it is the folding and putting away. Now keep in mind the bed in this picture is a King size.
Oh I climbed Mount Washmore and I conquered it!!! It actually all got folded and put away.
All that to say if I ever come up with a schedule that works with my crazy life you guys will be the first to hear about it!!! Hope I made y’all smile.

Mount Washmore, love it! The funniest thing is I have that exact same pile in my living room, on the floor, as I type this. My 10 year old walked by on the way to bed, turns to me and says this pile is as tall as me. We need to keep Evie away, the 2 year old, if there's an avalanche, she's a goner!

Our friends with 11 children call their laundry pile… Mt. NeverRest. 🙂 Make a game of each basket of clothes out of the dryer or off the line. Those little ones of yours are plenty old enough to fold somethings and put their clothes in the drawers. It might not be perfect, but they will learn as they go. You can all fold together!!

The paw in the butter is so cute, but yuck! Definitely a reason to keep the lid on. Congratulations on conquering Mount Laundry! Too bad it has to be done everyday. I love the patchwork quilt on your bed. Did you make it?

I totally hear you! One day I am proud of myself for my "perfectly" clean house, the next day I'm crying in frustration over the fact that there is clutter everywhere, the dishes aren't washed and the laundry is piling up in the laundry room…AGAIN! Ah well, so is life with young children! But it's great, isn't it? 🙂

I never have a clean house and despite the fact that laundry is my favorite chore I'm rarely caught up on even that- and there are only 4 of us. 🙁 Am I just a bad housekeeper or can I blame part of it on having two toddlers in diapers?

I was thinking this wasn't that bad actually… until I saw the part about the bed being king size! Although I'm sure there have been a time or two when I could have filled a king sized bed if I had one. Loved the kitty paw- I could see something like that happening here, especially since kitty is supposed to be outside and yet I'll still find him sleeping on the couch (like today!)But I really enjoy seeing your kiddos littler, so, so adorable!! 🙂

so glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. A mother's work is never done sometimes it can be really overwhelming. I too, make extensive to-do lists that life so rudely interrupts. I love your blog. It's real! I'm following now =)
