I don’t really like clutter or mess but I’m married to a self professed pack-rat so I have to tolerate some level of it. (granted over the 4 years of our marriage he has improved dramatically.) Nonetheless the clutter is still there and there are a few prime places in our home that just can’t seem to be tamed.
I’m giving myself a bit of grace since I have a 4 week old baby. (There are quite a few cluttered spots in our home right now, these are just the most extreme.)
First is that section of counter in the kitchen that is supposed to be Joe’s Coffee area but it’s just turned into the drop zone. I try to clean it off but in less than 24 hours it usually looks the way it did before I cleaned.
Second is Joe’s Desk. Granted this is more of a work station and meant to be used but there often isn’t enough space to do any actual work. I’m not really sure what lives here but usually I try to at least clean up dishes and food items.

Over the past week the baby has dropped and moved into an ideal birthing position (ROA – Right Occiput Anterior, or back along the right side of the mother’s belly). I’ve been having slightly more intense contractions almost everyday but nothing consistent……
Since Jude was born we’ve been a co-sleeping/bed-sharing family. It has it’s pros and cons. The Pros being easy night nursing and cuddles. Cons being Jude is a bed hog. Jude has a crib in the other room which is technically, “his room”, but he’s never slept there. He generally takes his naps in our…
Due and My Mon these are the names Noah calls his brothers, Jude and Simon. I love that kid. He’s starting to really develop his personality and sense of independence. He is also having a little bit of jealousy toward his new baby brother but really he is very caring and loving toward Simon, he…
Day 3 started off with a lot of drama. Despite the fact all the kids went to bed late they were all awake with the sun. So I decided to take them to the park so they could burn off some energy. After I got everyone loaded in the car (which is quite the adventure)…
Jude lost his first tooth on Sunday afternoon. A few days prior he was trying to pry two pieces of Legos apart with his teeth, despite us repeatedly warning him to NOT put Lego pieces in his mouth. When suddenly his bottom tooth got wiggly. He ran to me very concerned that maybe he had…
