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.

The other day I wrote about our family dinners and their importance. It may seem like life is too busy and you don’t have time to slow down for anything much less a home cooked meal where all members of your family are present but trust me, you do. It just takes a little planning…
First, let me start by saying how you parent and school your children is up to you. I’m not trying to say you’re doing it wrong and I’m right. By all means I’m no expert on parenting, I’m just doing my best like everyone else. I’m doing what is best for my family, likewise you…
I think Jude is settling in to a sleep pattern, for now anyway. He typically wakes up anywhere between 9-10 am. Takes a nap around 11-12am then another nap around 3-4pm and goes to bed around 9-10pm. I’m perfectly O.K. with this schedule. Sometimes we get a little off if we have a bad night…
Last week I had the pleasure of chaperoning my son’s 1st-grade field trip to the NC Zoo. Our family has frequently visited the NC Zoo and every time I have a new and exciting experience. I thought I share a few tips for visiting the NC Zoo, chaperoning a field trip to the NC Zoo,…
A few weeks ago Joe and I celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary. We took a long weekend trip to the mountains of North Carolina, just outside of Asheville. It was such a welcomed get-away. We’d been so busy with life that I think if we hadn’t gotten away we may have completely overlooked our anniversary….
We find out this week if baby 3 will be a boy or a girl. (Be sure to guess what we’re having on our Baby Poll right over there –>) Since we already have 2 boys it would be nice to have a girl but we are kind of assuming it’s going to be another…
