Having enough storage is super important to me. Having a place for everything makes life easier for me and the house run smoothly. This house didn’t come with a lot of built in storage. I have had to add a lot of bits and pieces to make the space look neat tidy and organised and I thought I would share a few bits and pieces today I have been working on.
In little Oliver’s room -
I have been flat out all week. Between the normal life of washing, cooking, cleaning, food shopping and looking after the little boys I have been doing my best to chip away at what seems like the enormous task of unpacking (I have WAY too much stuff). BUT as rooms get just a little bit more finished off and it starts to look a little more like home I am starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel.
In a few short weeks I will be undertaking the largest renovation I have ever done- a kitchen and a few weeks later a laundry. Daunting for me without a doubt- but necessary in this house as storage is sadly lacking. Ikea to the rescue and as measurements are made and quotes given I am getting closer- looking forward to sharing more on that soon.
Busy but happy chaos is the best way to describe moving. I am blessed to be starting fresh with a fabulous blank canvas to super organise : ) I look forward to sharing the decorating journey with you!!
Hello again dear friends it has been a little while : ) You should all know that your comments, emails, thoughts, prayers, offers for help, uplifting words and every other avenue of support each and every one of you has offerred means the world to me. I might not have time to respond to all of my emails but please know I read every single one of them.
Lately I have no “felt” like writing. A strange concept to me as for 2 years I wanted to write every single day. And even when I did take a break I missed it, this, you the blog terribly. Maybe in a crisis you revaluate what is the MOST important thing to be doing with your time.
It was rushed, we were all super tired and life had been mildly chaotic for the most part the weeks leading up to his special day. BUT he didn’t seen to mind one little bit.
It is that time again lovely ladies and although I know a most of mums dread this time of the year I am going to go out on a limb here are say I LOVE school holidays. I really, really do. No alarms for the school run, no school lunches, no making sure the uniform is ready. Bliss : )
Maybe I love them so very much because I try and get myself organised for a fun holidays free from as many “what are we going to do today” and I’m bored” as possible ; ) How do I do this?
I am SO glad you all loved the menu planners and and thank you so much for those who downloaded and enjoyed them- ever better those who posted photos of their handiwork. 
I am all for a good before and after. So let me show you my drawers of shame.
See below evidence.
I am not perfect, nor is my home, my schedule, my life and my time management. I work, I get busy, I have two small children and million and one other excuses as to why there are times where areas of my life slip through the super organised cracks ; ) This is life people- just keeping it real.
Thank you so much to everyone for their sweet messages on Facebook for this little boys birthday a few weeks ago. Sadly he was sick and in hospital with a chest infection that week which was no fun, the party has been postponed and we had a VERY simple cupcake and singing at home. I will be sure to share the details once we have had take #2 of his big day.
All that is important is our health and so even though it was sad to postpone his sweet party he is now healthy and back to his inquisitive self which is all that matters.
Today I am super excited to share with your our NEW printables : ) Kudos and many many thanks to the super woman Bianca for once again putting my ideas, visions and sometimes crazy thoughts into photoshop to make this creation. I bring you the start of our Super Organiser Mum planners : )
Best of all they are FREE. Yes I did say free and come in a multitude of colours to suit everyone. Todays printable is the first of a few which will be released over the coming days and weeks for your enjoyment.
