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.

I’ve been seriously MIA from this site lately. Life has been busy and I’ve been totally unmotivated to write. Every time I sit down at the computer a child needs me. It’s OK though cause I’d much rather be out helping of playing with my boys than stuck in front of a computer. I had…
So Tropical Storm Hanna was pretty uneventful. The biggest news at our house was that Joe had to go into work at 4am for the “Emergency Inclement Weather Schedule”. He said it was even less eventful than a regular Saturday at work. In the meantime Jude and I shared the bed after daddy left and…

My kids love playing outside but it takes some effort to get them there. We don’t have the best backyard. It’s been known to have a pretty bad mosquito infestation on occasion (although this year isn’t so horrible) therefore we don’t like spending a lot of time there. As a mom with four boys, we…
I went through a Simon and Garfunkel phase in college. However, I wasn’t a fan of slowing down and taking it easy. I was so anxious to move on and get things done, grow up and see where life took me next that I often forgot to stop and enjoy the moment. As a mom…
This past Sunday we took a little road trip to Charlotte for a friend’s wedding. This was Jude’s FIRST road trip but NOT his first wedding. It was actually his 4th wedding, not bad for a 5-month-old. Jude did great on the ride down for the first hour he talked and played the second hour…
