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



This is my Kitchen, the room I probably spent the most time in. It is the perfect size to me, not too small and not too big (Yes, I think that is possible)

















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 ;)

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 :)


This is our dining room, not much to say here :)

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!!!!!


Ok, so I thought I'd try this blogging thing again... Hopefully I'll keep up.
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...
