Day 1 of Being Motivated!

Yesterday was my first day of motivation to get things done. I'm wanting to get back into the swing of things after being pregnant and having Goose. So here are the accomplishments I made on my first day of being motivated and writing this list.
  • A shower! Very important with a newborn and a 3 year old, it doesn't happen everyday.
  • Both kids dressed and ready for the day, no jammies today ;)
  • Bible study completed!
  • A schedule/to-do list made, hopefully this one I will like!
  • 9 loads of laundry washed and folded and most put away!
  • Went through Monkey and Goose's clothes and removed everything to small and sorted it into garage sale and packing away.
  • All bedding changed, washed, and put away.
  • Started to reorganize the hall closet to get more storage.
  • Made some changes in the bathroom for more organization.
  • Cooked 3 healthy meals.
  • Read many stories to Monkey.
  • Went through all of the boys toys and put away 3 tubes worth of toys to rotate. Now all of Monkey's toys fit on his shelf and I created more room for him to play.
And this is what I'm left with to deal with today...

Clothes to be put away.


Garage sale boxes need to be sorted into baby, toddler, toys.


Put blankets and sheets into the hall closet and find a place for a few other misc. things. 
The toy tubes are put away.


The corner that the table is in use to be packed with drawer stacks full of toys and other misc. baby things.
I wanted to create a work space for Monkey to color and learning.


Finish organizing Monkey's clothes.
All toys now have a rightful place on his shelf and he has a reading corner with a basket of stuffed animals.


Finish getting new bathroom drawer stack (from Monkey's room) organized with all the bathroom items.


Get all of Goose's sheets and blankets put away in the hall closet and do some more organizing.

But before we complete any of this we will be heading out to the berry farm to get some fresh raspberries, strawberries, and peaches with our mom's group. It should be so much fun! I know Monkey will love it and it will be great to be outside after being inside all day working yesterday!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I'm Not Perfect

I'm not perfect. I think you already know that as no one is perfect on this earth even though sometimes people can look like it on the outside. I do post many things about the good things going on in my life because I would rather talk about those then dread on the bad or negative things. However today I'm going to make sure you know that I'm not perfect by a long shot. Since about last Wednesday (so over a week now)I have been struggling. I haven't been doing great in my alone time in the Word, I haven't been praying like I was, I'm craving foods that I shouldn't and eating them instead of praying about it and have gained a few pounds back, I'm not doing great on the house work and I'm struggling in making the right decisions in my parenting as Monkey is entering into this new independent/I'm not listening stage. I know what has caused this struggle and I have been working on it but I have been doing alone and not letting God help me through...
