I Didn't Realise

Wow! I hadn't realised that it was January when I last updated here. It's been busy, as usual, but things have been going well. Shortly after Caleigh's 7th birthday party, I decided to give something new a try. I had been pointed to a website that was supposed to help with getting my house under control, and boy, has it ever made a difference! I've managed to reclaim a lot of the house, and get rid of a bunch of stuff that, while still in good shape and useful, they were not useful to us any more. Since finding FlyLady, I'm not crisis cleaning any more. People can come over and I don't worry about things so much any more. It's awesome, and I'm getting my kitchen organised, which is making working in there so much easier and more enjoyable. I love this site!!!

Brynna is getting so big, practically running now, but not talking yet. It's incredible how much she's learned and grown in the past 2 months alone. She's learned to give high-5s, she's helping put dishes in the sink and dishwasher, and learning to scribble with crayons!

School is going super for both Caleigh and Aidan, with them learning sooooo much, and getting involved in charities(which means getting me involved) like OKCleanwater. Their school had a fund raising raffle last week for OKCleanwater, and asked parents to donate decorated cakes to be raffled off. I decided that I would donate a cake. It wasn't what I had initially planned, but the bunny turned out pretty good. The school got 18 cakes donated and raised over $150. Some of the cakes were amazing, making my little bunny look a bit plain. I think I need to make another one for Easter because Aidan was not happy that we didn't keep bunny to eat for ourselves, lol!
