How often do you read something like this, "I went to laundry training and I LOVED IT!"? I'm pretty sure you don't read it all that often. But truly, I did, love it that is! I actually am totally and completely in love with the new Bosch Vision Washer & Dryer and have been racking my brain for creative ways to sell our current machines. (And they aren't bad, they...
Somehow I don't think this is what The Container Store had in mind when they said we needed to hang our laundry....but hey, my ovens are next to the very small laundry room and it works! In keeping with the theme Back to Basics, I'm going to focus on Laundry and Laundry Rooms this week. I'm a huge fan of organization. I love The Container Store. Don't believe me? Read...
Last week was a meet your maker week for me. I had hit a wall and needed to regroup. I love my family, my husband, my Littles. But I was struggling to make it all work for us and for me. My sweet husband and suggested I take some time off, maybe get a massage. The problem with this is that I would still come back to the problem. My...
I posted a tweet last Thursday that overwhelmed me with how many responses I received back: I feel blessed to be able to write this blog. I love writing this blog. I love "meeting" all of you. My head is filled all day with posts I would love to write and tips I want to share... I love getting your emails asking for what I actually pack in my diaper...
Since we are on the topic of laundry, and since I still have about 8 loads to do myself, AND I seem to keep running out of time to write my recaps from laundry training....I thought I would share a fun tip my Latte Fairy friend shared with me. Wood Clothespins They're not just for laundry. Truly, NUMEROUS uses. But her favorite is to leave them in a jar in...
Last week I had the privilege and pleasure of attending "laundry training" with Bosch in Arizona...seriously, how awesome is that! Bosch hosted a "Hampers to Hangers" event to offer laundry tips as well as organizational tips from The Container Store. Sounds so silly to WANT to learn better tips for doing your laundry, but that is exactly what we did and it was amazing! Not only was Bosch an exceptional...
(In case you can't figure this photo out, this is Hayden playing "peek-a-boo" in my skirt, pretty typical of my day.) When I first started writing this blog, my goal was to share tips and favorites that help our family out. And that is still my goal. But we've had a lot going on between launching the blog last October and welcoming little Piper's arrival 4 weeks ago...now we are...
You all are TOTALLY going to laugh at me! But if you are OCD or any kind of over the edge organized person (or WANT to be that kind of person, because you know some of you do) you will love this little find! I am never happy with my "To Do" lists. I keep most things on my computer and therefore synced to my phone, but I have never...
Happy Monday Everyone! First off, a quick apology. It seems Feedburner has been playing some selective tricks with the MFE Readers & Followers and randomly deciding who it wants to send daily subscriptions to and who it doesn't, and it changes throughout the week. So, we switched our subscription service this past weekend. You will now be receiving your daily emails through Mail Chimp. I'm doubly crossing my fingers that...
I was asked about good tips for hanging pictures. I wish I was the perfect one to ask. This is one of those times that I knew would happen when you would see that I'm not really perfect and that I truly just wing it in a lucky way 90% of the time! Here goes anyway. I love photos. Always have, always will. If you've been reading my blog, then...
