Dirty Dirty, Wash Wash

Dirty Dirty, Wash Wash!!!

So I was just thinking about my Uncle Ronald's infamous saying, "Dirty dirty, wash wash,"
as I looked at the picture of Braxton in the dirt. Uncle Ronald had an accident when he was
younger and so his speech was impaired. So this was his way of telling you your vehicle was dirty you'd better hope to it and get it clean. As I ponder my life these days sometimes I feel as though that is the title of the stay at home mother's guide to life. Who knows maybe I should write a book with that title. If someone else publishes the book first I am totally sueing! ha ha ha. You know the scriptures say that cleanliness is next to Godliness. If that is the case Uncle Ronald is definately in heaven... and I have a lot of work to do to stay out of hell. BUT... I have made headway. This weekend Kent and I REALLY cleaned the bathroom. We got all the hard water buildup off of the walls in the shower and it almost sparkles. Our bathroom is now like that plug-in commercial where the kids hang out in the bathroom just to enjoy the fragrance. I want to bathe in there just to enjoy the beauty of the bath. Too bad there is still more work to be done so I don't have the time to do it. I know I should stop and smell the roses, but my rose bush died this winter.

We have a Climber

So I haven't done this blog thing because I was thinking and got a little nervous about the possibility of people I don't know looking at my life...then I got over that. So just a minute ago I looked at Braxton and he was trying to climb from his high chair onto the table. When did that happen. He's not even walking and already he's trying to climb. Aghhhhh. I am not ready for the head bumps that will cause. Today he is wearing his shirt that says "I tried to be good but I got bored" such an appropriate day for him to wear it. I guess I should get on with my day. If I could only get going in the mornings maybe I would be able to get more accomplished, but it takes me a few hours to really wake up and get to living. I will get the hang of it.

Spring Cleaning

Do you think this bowl on his head makes him look like Devo?

So I heard the term, "Reclaim your bedroom" at an organization workshop the other day and today I did it! I reclaimed my bedroom. I can't believe how great it is to walk in there and have a clean bedroom with little to remind me of working. I makes me want to spend the day in there tomorrow. I am amazed how hard it is (for me) to fit so much in a small apartment and not feel cluttered. I don't have a whole lot more to say except my little Braxty bug is SO adorable!
