Well not doing great on my newest habit (15 minute clean), but I had a problem with my back and arm a couple of days this week. No excuse though. I WILL do better next week. Still not doing well with making the bed either, BUT I am doing very well on washing the sheets every week. I washed them yesterday and hung them on the line to dry. Nothing like the smell of sheets dried by the sun! :) I think there was only a couple of days where I forgot to floss my teeth, so I am doing well with that too. This week I am going to add my ironing. Since I had Little E I haven't done well with getting my ironing done. So...my goal is to get my ironing done 2 days after washing the laundry. (I will eventually move it up to doing it the next day). So...now I am off to start my new week of habits!

Make Bed- not doing well
Wash the Sheets- Doing very well!
Floss Teeth- Doing very well!
15 Minute Clean3 days- Not great

I am just impressed you iron at all. My ironing consists of throwing the item back in the dryer :) !! Good luck this week!

The smell of line dried sheets is one of my favorites! I don't iron either. Like An Ordinary Mom I throw it back in the dryer if it really needs some work. :D

I like to get my ironing done quickly too although I only have a few pieces every week. We're a t-shirt and jean family except on Sunday's!

Well, like several others I simply toss items in the dryer for a while if they are too wrinkled. I despise ironing. I must admit though, it makes things look cared for.

Good luck with this new habit!

Yeah, I'm not an ironer either. I give my hubby ironing coupons for his birthday and father's day and he knows how precious they are. =)

Show and Tell Friday (10/5)

Welcome to "Show and Tell Friday!" Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! When we went to the Fall Festival a couple of weeks ago Hubby bought the children wooden swords. They have had so much fun with those...pretending to be knights, pirates, and soldiers. Well, hubby decided that he could make them just as well or better. So here is a finished sword made by hubby. (He actually ended up making seven!) Our local leather shop cut out the pieces for us which cut down on our work tremendously. Hopefully I can show off one that is much bigger soon. Hubby decided that he needs some protection from Big T and Sweet E so he is making himself one. :) **This wasn'

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Today I am taking part in Kelli's Show and Tell and her Giving Thanks week. Last Saturday I had the chance to do something I had never done before. I put together a gingerbread house with my MIL and my children. My MIL made the gingerbread and then she had me help her assemble it and then decorate it. We didn't finish it all, but we hope to finish it this afternoon since she has the day off. I am pretty proud of myself. Next year maybe the children and I can do this as a school project/activity. So...here is the gingerbread house in all it's glory. I hope to post a finished

Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better! Yesterday I was in our side yard raking up a pile of leaves for Sweet E to play in and I saw something out of the corner of my eye. It was bright red. I looked down and saw three bright red objects in the grass. I picked them up....I have never seen these before. We are thinking they may possibly be wild strawberries, but are unsure since we have no prior experience with them. (really have no clue as to what they actually are.) And...what in the world would they be doing in the yard at the end of October! I just wanted to share pictures to see what everyone else thought. I thought it wa
