Just for Fun....

I was inspired by a friend of mine's blog.... she blogged about a few of her favorite things..... I enjoyed reading it, and thought I would give it a try......

So here are a few things I'm into right now..... or dream about.......

Homemade Baby Wipes....


My cousin got me started on them, and I love them. They are definitely thinner than store bought wipes, but I love the way they smell. They save money. My kids like to help make them. When Easton gets a diaper rash he doesn't scream bloody murder when I clean him. They make me feel frugal and domestic. I feel like I'm giving my baby a mini bath and I know what I'm wiping on him.


Eliminating toys.....
Sounds terrible, but it has made my life SOOO much easier. About a month ago we decided to move all of the kids toys downstairs. Also, we boxed up most of the toys and put them in our laundry room. Then we let the kids pick out a few toys that they want to play with, and then trade them out. SO FAR, it has worked great. Less mess to clean up, the kids are more excited about their toys, and did I mention it was less mess to clean up?!


Personal Progress....

I've been working on my Personal Progress and one of the experiences included coming up with items for your dream home...... Hence, the next few things....


A Claw foot Tub



An Old School Fridge...in a white kitchen


..... and I'm out of time.... I guess the Just for Fun post will have to wait....

To be continued.

Tiff, I agree with your mom. You inspire me too! I would love to learn how you do your baby wipes! What is your personal progress? Like a journal of goals? Thanks for sharing maybe I will copy you and do a fav list myself! :)

Baby wipes huh...Wow. I will need to come over the next time you make a batch so I can see what you do. That is awesome. And I also love Claw foot baths. One of these days we will have them. And I love the eliminating toys idea...I better make sure not to get to many and if I do have a bin somewhere for them to swap them out. Also regarding the personal progress...way to go. I forgot about that. I should be working on mine as well. Love ya Tiff ( I also think you are a inspiring woman!)
