Samantha's Day 1

Our day 1 goal was to make our sink shine. Well, in order to do that, I had to wash the dishes that were in it first! now, its nice and clean and will stay that way from now on....or at least, that is the goal!

After:



After being bitten by the Cleaning Bug, I decided to dedicate a bit more time to my kitchen. It is normally my least favorite and messiest room in the house. I spent a few extra minutes and organized my pots and pans, put away all of our gadgets that we rarely use, and cleaned everything....a little vinegar and baking soda can make for one shiny kitchen! I must say that when my husband came home today, he asked if I was wanting something? He was also suprised to find me dressed for the day, rather than in pjs!

Thank you FLYLady for giving me the motivation I had lost somewhere around the time that my third babe was born!

Into- Erika

Hi, I am Erika. I am a SAHM to 4 girls.Kailey4, Abby 3, Lilly 1, Ellie 3 months.
I am wanting to get my house organized again. My husband and I are not the cleanest people, so its had to stay organized and we have SO much stuff.I am addicted to cloth diapering, love sewing, and baking.

I am very excited to start this new journey.

Intro - Samantha

Hey guys, I'm Samantha! I am a wanna-be crunchy mom to 3 little guys - Ashton (almost 4), Jett (2 1/2) and Braeden (6 months). I am a full-time mom, student and wife so cleaning tends to get put on the back-burner of life. My husband, and fellow slob, is starting a new job that will require him to be gone for 10 weeks and in that time, I hope to organize our life (and home) so that he comes home to a clean house and possibly a super-wife! My hobbies are playing cheerleader at soccer games, any messy craft I can find, learning to knit, and my biggest addiction is cloth diapering.

I am excited to start this journey to a more organized life!

Intro - Kristen

Hi, I'm Kristen. I'm a SAHMama to Dominic (7 1/2 yrs), Kaitlin (3 1/2 yrs), & Seth (6 1/2 mos). I'm married to my best friend, Steve, who is as big of a slob as I am. =) We live in Houston, TX and have been here for a lil over 7 mos. My interests are knitting, sewing, baking, cooking, crockpotting, gardening, & cloth diapering. We cloth diaper and love it.

I'm very eager to begin my journey with The Flylady. I promised Steve I would figure out how to get our house under control and I'm hoping this will do it. :)

The Beginning - Kristen

Today Erika and I were talking about how unorganized our homes were and how overwhelmed we were by them. After a little bit of research, we've decided that we want to start our journey with The Flylady. We've created this blog to track our progress and post pictures to inspire each other. Samantha is going to join us as well.

So, if you suffer from CHAOS, please feel free to read along, laugh with us, cry with us, and experience honest domestic chaos at it's best.
