Thursday Quick Tip!

One kid or four, or more...my experience is that the mornings you have to be somewhere are the mornings a shoe is missing or the argument about what to wear begins!

Today's quick tip- LAY OUT THEIR CLOTHES THE NIGHT BEFORE!  Whether you choose or they do, it will be ready in the morning!  Pre-planning can make all the difference in the world between chaos and peace!

Thursday Quick Tip #4

This one is an easy one! 

 

 Make a master list of all the items you keep in your fridge, pantry and freezer and keep it posted in your kitchen.  That way when you run out of an item, you just mark it on your list.  Before you shop for the week or month, add anything extra you will need for your menu and you are ready to go!

Have breakfast once a week for dinner!  Saves time and money.  Plus, you can double the recipes of waffles or pancakes and then freeze the extra!  Easy, inexpensive and fast breakfast (or dinner!)

Thursday Quick Tip #2

Pressed for time but still need a clean bathroom?

 

 

I clean my boys bathroom while my youngest takes a bath, saving the bathtub for last when he gets out and is drying off.  Because he is younger and still needs supervision, I have to be in there anyway- so multitasking is it!  Because I use natural cleaning ingredients, I do not have to worry about gasing him while I clean. 

 

He gets a few minutes of extra water play time, I get a clean bathroom!
