THIS girl is in love...

Friday was a wonderful day in our house....


THIS was brought to our house by my handsome husband...


I'm in love :)

Our oldest "helped"  the hubbs set it up and then they upcycled the box into a Car Garage(Caden's choice). 


The box is always the best part of big items for the kids! We'll see how long it lasts around these rowdy boys....

New Look!

Don't worry! You're in the right place!

To go along with my "theme" this week of cleaning out and reorganizing, I am also mixing up the blog a little. To tell you the truth, I'm not too sure about it. I'll probably play with it more over the next few weeks, so let me know what you think(be honest!)!!

Not only did I clean out and re-organize our master closet and rearrange our room this week, yesterday, to top things off, we (okay, I) decided to rearrange and clean out our oldest's room and closet. The room was a mess, and had way too many unnecessary things in it. After a loooong day of cleaning out, throwing away, sorting, and rearranging IT was finished. This "new" room as my oldest calls it will at least last him until we move our youngest into his room at the end of the year and redecorate(woo-hoo!).

 
Amidst the chaos...after rearranging, the closet exploded

Pryce found a monkey backpack

The oldest in his "clean" closet...if you would have seen this before you would not recognize it!

We moved his dresser into the closet to make more room for play and all of his toys, pushed his bed against the wall (mattress and box springs are still on the floor because he likes to run and jump on it), put an extra table by his bed, and spread out his tons of toys.
Overall, we are happy with it....it's functional for a 3 year old and that's what we needed!

Hiatus...

Wow, so I took a break didn't I? This week has been filled with great weather(till yesterday's monsoon) and Spring cleaning.....oh and our clothes dryer broke---definitely wasn't expecting that *new* investment we were going to have to make.

Monday as I was putting the hubbs clothes away I realized our closet was WAY too packed, especially my poor husbands side...somehow I have begun taking over that side as well as my own. Hum, not sure how that happened! ;) I decided I needed to clean it out. Okay, and and my youngest's closet....oh, and rearrange our room a little. Slightly overboard, but I am so glad I had the energy to do it! My oldest currently has a love for vacuuming(woo-hoo!) so he helped clean too! I could get used to that.

Tuesday the dryer broke. Boo.....pretty sure the 20 loads I did last week was the culprit. We were able to find an awesome one on sale though and it comes in TODAY! How's that for speedy?!

The boys "helping" me with the laundry. Right before the dryer broke.
Also, let me give you an update on how my "healthy living" plan has been going. If you remember my post last week. It definitely didn't start very well! But, guess what?! It got easier! I basically cut back on sugar and flour and increased my fruits, veggies, and protein. That combined with my couch to 5k program helped me lose 2 pounds! Woot Woot! Plus, I just FEEL better overall. Take THAT Hoshimotos! :)

Fav new "meal." Green Monster Smoothie
Speaking of the couch to 5k program I have officially completed week 3 and am beginning week 4 today. So far everything is going well and I feel really good. A lot better than the first time I did the program.

It has been a good, productive week. I feel more energized and also less cluttered. Happy Friday everyone!
