Welcome!

Welcome to a piece of our sweet journey of life. This blog is about our family life-- my husband, my type 1 diabetic sixth grader, my spunky fourth grader, my first grader little girl, and myself! Enjoy!

Why it Takes Me an Hour to Change the Sheets

Just kidding. It's probably really more like 20 minutes to change the sheets in all 3 kids' rooms. But why so long, still?! 

Because they stuff their beds to the brim with blankets, stuffed animals, pillows, toys, random craft supplies, you get the idea. 


Today, I went to change the sheets for all the beds in the house. I've found that it's easier to change the kids' beds if I make a pile of what came from their bed. Then I can replace the pile onto their bed after I put on fresh sheets. Now this pile does include pillows and their actual blanket but it also includes SO much more! Take a peek. 

Avery's:


Noah's (I piled everything from top bunk onto the bottom bunk): 


Michael's: 


All three! I do not understand why all of them feel as though they need to have so. many. objects in the bed, but they do, so here we are. 

After making the possession piles, I washed all the sheets and put a different set on Noah's top bunk & Avery's bed. They have spare sets but Michael doesn't, so his bed was last to be made today. 

Here's how neatly everything fits after changing sheets, making the bed, and replacing the piles. 

Avery's: 


Noah's: 


Michael's (also with a washed bed skirt): 


And now my children are ready for a night of being nearly squished out of their beds by toys, stuffed animals, pillows, extra blankets, and zipper pouches. But at least they'll have clean sheets!


Until Next Time,

Much Love, Reba
