Toddler Drawer Organization

Since I'm headed back to work in a matter of days, we need our mornings to be SUPER efficient, so I've started to get everything as organized as possible so it doesn't matter who is doing the morning routine, *cough, cough R*, there will be no excuse for the kids to not have underwear and socks.

Instead of buy an expensive organizer for the kids stuff that probably would end up ruined anyway, I cut up pieces of cardboard and duct taped them in the drawer as an insert. Now everything has a place. Ahhh...I love being organized.

Sock Bun Curly Hair

So I've been crazy addicted to Pinterest recently, if you haven't checked it out, DO IT, it's one heck of a time waster, especially the iPhone app, I can now keep track of all my virtual pin board needs.

Anyways, I came across a few posts that linked back to two videos, one for a sock bun and the other for how to use a sock bun to make curly hair and I'm honestly amazed. Considering I have stick straight hair, and I did absolutely nothing like the video suggested, I just threw a rolled up sock in there and took it out in the morning. And I ended up with this:
It makes me believe that if I actually used the water and perhaps a little product in my hair before putting it up there I would actually have a nice wave to my hair. Look out work, my curly hair is going to look awesome! :-)

Accident Prone

I think Big N tries very hard to give me a heart attack on a daily basis. In the past couple of weeks she has:

1. Fallen at the park causing her front tooth to turn black and a trip to the dentist to learn that fingers crossed the tooth doesn't fall out. And that is a good thing kids have baby teeth, they are the "practice set"

2. Fallen out of bed TWICE, once the night before the dentist appointment, which led to a huge gash in her chin. I have NO CLUE, what she hit her face on, but there was tears and blood.

3. Been stung by a bee, on EACH leg. With that adventure we learned that WD-40 does a great job of taking out the sting and reducing swelling. Thankfully Uncle Bull knew that trick and our adventurous two year old was back at her antics in no time.

From now on I think we are just going to sit at home and do NOTHING. Seriously, my nerves can't take this parenting thing.

To go with this, Little N has:

1. Banged his head off the faucet while we were trying to wash his hands;

2. Fallen into the iron railing trying to stand up using it; and

3. Taken a few good falls in the tub while trying to crawl around Big N and pull the plug out.

Sheesh, where's the bubble wrap when you need it!
