Day 14 of the Organizing Challenge

Today was Day 14 for the organizing challenge and it was Under Bathroom Sink. I was excited for this mostly because I had already done it a month or so before so it didn't really need much but I have two bathrooms so I went through the other bathrooms under the sink and cleaned it out... Here is the 1st bathroom under the sink that is already done...

It may not look the best to you but you should have seen it before. That basket has a bunch of extra lotions and sprays and nail polish remover in it. All the cleaning supplies I will be moving to my Laundry room area above the washer and dryer. I'm going to get a cleaning tote and stock it with my cleaning supplies so when I need to clean the bathrooms and what not I can just grab the tote that will have everything in it already use it and put it back up and out of reach from my kids. So that alone will give me a little more space under here :)

Here is my 2nd bathroom under the sink BEFORE

It's not a very big space under here but it still mangaed to get cluttered. Luckily my kids don't really bother this bathroom a lot cuz look at that spray bottle of Lysol! I could only imagine what would happen if Landon discovered that and started spraying it everywhere including in Zeke's face!!! Luckily that has not happened and will NOT be happening because I moved all the cleaning supplies up high WAY out of his reach!

Here's after! All that was left after my purging and cleaning was my foo spa and towel spa! My towel spa was a wedding gift from my friends Leah and Charlie! Lee absolutely LOVES it! You put your towels in it and it heats them up and you can put them on your face or around your neck or use them after you've taken a shower it's just great :) THANKS GUYS! haha I like to leave my Clorox wipes in here because I use them so often. :) Feels good to be organized!

Well I'm on my way to clean the rest of my house. I've already gotten quite a bit done off of my to do list for today but I've still got a lot more. Oh and btw tomorrow I'll be posting pictures of my new kitchen floor!!!!!!!!! IT'S FINALLY FINISHED!!!! sooo excited!!! Can't wait to show you all! :D Happy monday and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BFF MANDI AND HER LITTLE DUDE JAKE!!! LOVE YOU GUYS!



Day 13 of the Organizing Challenge

Day 13 was the Medicine Cabinet and boy did my medicine cabinet need it! I had all sorts of things stuff in the end of this cabinet so it was nice to go through it get rid of stuff and reorganize

BEFORE
what a mess! There was bubbles, water balloons, birthday candles in here that did not belong. And some old and expired meds too!

Here's AFTER

:) so nice! the top shelf is lee's protein drink stuff and the bottom is kids meds in the front and tylenol pepto and other meds in the back and on the right is some vitamins and fish oil. :) So happy this is cleaned! I'll be getting baskets for this as well to keep it this neat!

Day 12 of the Organizing Challenge

Spice Cabinet. I was kind of excited to do this one. My little Spice Cabinet above the oven needed some cleaning and organizing.

Before...
my cooking spices and baking spices were all mixed up some were knocked over..
messy...
Here's a further back view of the mess...

and here is After...

Ahhhh so much better :) All wiped clean and put back and organized...The left side has my cookings spices like steak seasoning, lemon pepper,seasoned salt...and then the right side has all my baking spices and flavorings and sprinkles. I'm eventually going to get some little baskets to put all the cooking spices into so it's easier for me to just grab the basket of spices and then decide what I want and put it back. I'll also be labeling the tops of the spices when I do this so I'm not pulling out a ton of spices looking for what I want! I'll do the same with the baking spices too! :) I just need to get myself to the dollar store! :)

Day 11 of the Organizing Challenge

Day 11 was The Freezer luckily we had just bought our new fridge on an awesome black friday sale so my freezer is still clean and organized :) no need for me to freeze my hands off!

I have the bottom pull out freezer and this the main part on the left are my frozen veggies. and the right is my frozen fruits. I hvae a bunch of frozen peaches and berries from this summer.

Then this is an additional pull out basket that holds all my meats. The left is actually Ground Elk meat ( we got a ton of it earlier this winter from some friends and it's great! I use it just like ground beef and you can't tell the difference!) and the ice cream is next to the ground elk meat and elk steaks just cuz haha. and then on the right is some frozen salmon and halibut that Lee got for helping someone with their plumbing! and then his bag of chimichanga's haha I love that here in Ashton people are all about trading labor or goods :) we end up with a lot of meat and potatoes and gun smithing and ammunition this way! Lee doesn't do it to get the free stuff. He's always happy to help whoever needs it but it's fun when he gets meat or his gun sited for free and what not :) I especially love getting the meat cuz it is NOT cheap! :)

The Kidlets

Here's a bunch of picturesfrom when I first got my camera till recently, of my little Kidlets. I finally took them off my camera to share :)

This was a couple days before Christmas when I first got my camera :) such a cute little binky boy!

Tubby Time!!!
My little fat face :)

I love how their two little heads are just peeking up over the tub
Mmmmm...the foam letter "O"

The Many Faces of Landon.... lol




Havin' fun
Landon helpin' Zeke out and pushing him
Zeke's worried smile...That was fun but scarey haha

So the following pictures are pretty funny....Lee and I were watching a movie and Landon had left the living room and just about the time I was wondering why it was so quiet and where Landon was he came running in telling me he wanted a sandwhich looking like this........


Lee and I couldn't help but laugh lol I don't know where he found the maker but he found it lol He LOVES to color on himself and this isn't the first time it's happened. lol

Say Cheese! lol


This was before Zeke could crawl and one of the first time's he made it up the steps. He was so proud of himself lol


He fell asleep in his bouncer while I was cleaning the bathroom and Landon was taking a bath. Sooo cute! Landon never did this. He never fell asleep randomly in funny places. So this was just too cute :)



haha fully belly=sleep
Landon LOVES to help cook. He doesn't care what it is I'm making he wants to help! Here we were making cookies. I bought him his cute little Lightning McQueen Apron at a craft fair so I could copy the pattern haha It fits kids of all ages cuz the ribbon adjusts to their size!

haha He likes to take his clothes off....Atleast he had underware on usually he doesn't lol
Zeke peeking over the crib :) I love that he can stand up He always has a big smile for me in the mornings and after naps I LOVE it!
Zekey being naught lol He is the worst when it comes to leaving kleenex and wipes down in his reach and open! He'll pull them ALL out!
Here ya go mom I got them all out for you!
I knew you'd be happy
Yeah I did it!
What?!

My cute little Ravioli face! He didn't like them at all he tried maybe one and just smeared the rest and had fun lol

Landon the sheep! I made him this little sheep costume for when we did the nativity scene for our ward Christmas party but he was too busy running around so he never wore it. I just made it with a white hoodie and glued cotton balls all over it and sewed on little ears haha
He liked wearing it but then he found out it was even more fun to pull off all the cotton balls. It was a mess and the costume was confiscated lol
He found this life jacket and put it on and was telling me he was going swimming in the boat haha
The funniest part was his little bare buns lol He was just running around everywhere with a lifejacket on and bare buns! hahaha gotta love it! lol
