Where did the winter go? I know that at one point I had been thinking that it would be winter filled with lots of time for crafting and enjoying learning. It seems that having a crawling/cruising baby eats up time before you even realize it.
Another thing that it seems I haven't been caught up on for a while...Laundry. My dreaded foe has reared it's ugly head again and my living room couch is over flowing with laundry. It doesn't help that little Miss Nora LOVES to unfold and unpack things. A basket of folded laundry is her idea of the world's best toy- she will pull each article out one at a time, look at it and then reach in for another.
Piles of folded clothes on the coffee table one swipe of her arm and pile after pile crash to the floor. It's pretty funny actually. Until I realize that all the work I just did- now has to be redone. Ugh. LOL
Wish me luck! I am making it my goal to get the laundry done today!

Alee, I can just picture Nora now. Stella has learned how to open her bottom drawer and pull out all her shirts and unfold them. My solution: I just don't fold them!

WOOHOO!
Doug helped me fold for about 45 minutes this evening and we go about 6 loads of laundry (if not more!!) folded! Now I just have a few more loads left!

I have laundry all over the place, too. It's insane how much laundry kids make. Then the dogs end up laying in the baskets and mess everything up too. I tried to get caught up the other day, but after four loads, I barely made a dent.

Yes, the dog doesn't help too much as she loves to lay on our clothes-clean or dirty. And I think Sky and Nora are in cahoots. Nora will swipe everything off the coffee table- aka my folding staging area and then along comes Sky to make her next. Sheesh! LOL And yes, Nora who gets free range of her bedroom during nap and bed time, now knows how to open her dresser drawers and unpack things. I think she secretly is the force of entropy bottled into a toddler.
