Still alive!
Ok, so I don't' have (or should I say "take") the time to post very often. I'll try hard to get better :)
For now just a picture of my handsome little man and his big boy hair cut. I could squish him!

Silly Kids
Jillian and Milam were "driving" to the Hotel... in her kitchen oven! Oh, to be a child :) I love her imagination
The Kitchen/ Dining room
![]() |
Beside my fridge is our little breakfast corner. This is where I hide my kitchen aid, toaster and that kinda stuff. Underneath I made my kids "their" cupboard. It is filled with a bunch of toys and the rule is that they can't take anything from my cupboards in exchange ;)
Like I have mentioned before, I LOVE baskets. I have a few of them. It just looks so much cleaner if things are in a basket. On one of my shelfs I have a basket for dish towels and another one for bibs and face cloths.
On my pantry door is my iOS 6 (long story on how it got the name) but it's basically a chalkboard for writing little notes on, shopping lists, phone numbers and that kinda stuff
This is inside my pantry, I still have lots of room left to fill ;)
Things that my kids aren't allowed to get into are on the higher shelfs
Like I have mentioned before, I LOVE baskets. I have a few of them. It just looks so much cleaner if things are in a basket. On one of my shelfs I have a basket for dish towels and another one for bibs and face cloths.
Here I have a basket to store my lids, it gives me more room in my drawers for the container
Also in my pantry I have a basket with coloring books,
blank papers etc. I found a bucket with dividers for crayons,
finger paint and that kinda stuff
Even my fridge has a system... Leftovers are on the top shelf,
Eggs, cheese and breakfast related items are on the shelf below.
The bottom shelf holds, Milk and other drinks (which I am out of at the moment)
The door has sauces, condiments, 3% Milk, butter, etc.
My freezer (bottom drawer, I love it) has two drawers. The top one is stocked with little items and items that are stored in a container. In the bottom drawer I have one side with meats and the other with cheese, bread or vegetables. While I was taking the picture, Milam was trying to get the chocolate chips that fall down onto the bottom :)
Above my fridge is a cupboard with dividers for baking pans, pizza stones, cutting boards and pitchers.
I bought some cutlery dividers at dollarrama and they're great for organizing things like pens, clips, rubber bands etc. I like to keep a multi screwdriver in my kitchen for the little fix up job, that way I don't have to try and find something in Warren's garage.
Tupperware is my best friend, they work great for storing your baking needs and it looks clean and organized :)

For the love of organizing...
So over the next while, I will post about one room in my house... what I love about this room, features I like, how I keep it organized etc.
I'm a organizing addict and have an obsession with baskets :) I thought my weakness might be of help for somebody and that's why I have decided to blog about it. I myself love to look at blogs like iheartorganizing and I love to get ideas and inspirations.
Next up... The kitchen!
I'm BACK!!!!!
The program I used (and loved) for our old blog is being discontinued and now I'll have to get used to blogspot again.
That's it for now...
