Day 5: Under the Sink

We had the greatest night of sleep last night! Thank you, Eli and Kate! Our kids are awesome. Eli slept 12 hours (9 p.m.-9 a.m.), and Kate slept from 8.5 hours (11:30 p.m.-8 a.m.). Sam and I slept til 7 a.m. From 7-8 a.m. I check on my kids about 100 times, thinking SOMETHING had to be wrong for them to still be asleep. But everyone is happy and healthy this morning, so apparently, I was just experiencing a modern-day miracle.

Before bed last night, I captured these photos of my kiddos. Eli loves his sister so much. Sometimes he just can't get close enough to her. One day I'm going to count how many times in the day he kisses her. It has to be in the hundreds.

I can't remember what he was telling her, but it is usually about Elmo.

 Oh, yes, so this posting is supposed to be about ORGANIZING, not just about my sweet babies, even though I could talk about them all day long (and do most days). Today's challenge was to organize under the kitchen sink. I'm pretty blessed here, because when my mom came to stay with me during December after Kate was born, she organized and cleaned under the sink for me. However, things had already gotten out-of-hand, dust and grime had built up, and my mom had not thrown anything out. I knew this would be an easy project, which is perfect, since no one in the house has any clean clothes left. I guess I need to occasionally stop organizing and taking on new projects and remember to MAINTAIN my home!!!

My before looks pretty good, I think. However, I took the time to scrub the walls, door, and floor of the cabinet as well as the trash can, bottles, and cubby for cleaning supplies. I felt like Danny Tanner on Full House doing that. Remember the episode where he is cleaning his cleaning supplies? Yes, that was me today.

And after. Looks about the same in the picture, but it is so much cleaner!

Happy Thursday, y'all! - KP
