Oh yeah, and Bling Bling baby... kiss normal goodbye.

It's been almost TWO YEARS (in November it will be!) and I've still yet to APPROACH normal. It's very sad.

But on a brighter side, the Baby Ninja Crusader knows that if he spills something he goes and gets te towel off the fridge and wipes it up and he takes his trash and throws it away in the trash can without being asked. And he puts all of his bath toys up by himself. He's doing better than his daddy so I must be doing something right.... :D


AND OH MY GOSH!!!!

How did I miss that you're preggers again!!!!!!!!!


WOW!! I'm am so out of it.... CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Much love to you all!

Oh, let's see... I guess they're more of supportive groups. CatholicFlyladies, HomeschoolingFlyladies, FlyBabieswithBabies etc (I just made those up, but that's the jist of it). If you go to Yahoogroups and look for "Flylady" you'll come up with about 600 or so. There are some actual knockoffs too. For people who've tried Flylady and found it to be too much. They vary, but some of them just give you an organizing task to do each day, etc.

Wow. Baby Ninja Crusader sounds more disciplined than most adults... I don't even expect that Matt will clean up all his spills. lol You are most definately doing something right!

Thank you for the congrats. :) It probably slipped past your notice because I never made a thread announcing our pregnancy but just mentioned it in a few random threads. lol

(Thank you, gentlemen!)

Good thread. I may check out the offshoots. BTW, when I said I reckon "it's" Catholic, I meant the discipline/perseverence/in the small things (ala FLYlady or whatever system - but you knew that, of course, my sharp pals).

Kilroy, this is great news about Baby N Cr! You'll never regret his keeping on top of stuff. Hoona (our 6th born, who's only 2 inches tall), takes her meal remains away often on her own...she'll be 3 soon. Been doing this since barely 2 yrs old. Man is she cute! Recently got gum in her hair, of course above the bottom of her back hairline. So now she has this teriffic modified bob, very short. She's light as a feather.

KMS, you are in the 2nd tri now?

God bless you all.

I received this Flylady email today... thought it was cute...

Fling Your Stuff (to the tune of "Be Our Guest")

Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!
Give your sink a shine and buff.
Tie your shoes upon your feet, my dear,
And get up off your duff.
Just fifteen
At a time
Over piles you won't climb.
Pitch the old stuff, you don't love it.
Take it to the door and shove it.
I can play
and have guests
After all, my house is blessed,
All the beds are made, and I'm completely dressed.
Go on and plan your menu
Plug the crockpot in, and then you'll
Fling your stuff!
Yes, Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!

Menu mail
Helps you sail
Through the kitchen with a plan.
Bless your house, zone by zone
With Feather Duster in your hand.
It's just stuff
They're just things.
People focus, and you'll sing!
No one's gloomy or complaining
If it's sunny or it's raining.
Baby steps
Do the trick
To routines faithfully stick.
If it's fun, it will get done!
And missions too!
Come on and lift your bags
and find your cleaning rags
FlyLady's best!
If you're stressed
It's fling boogie we suggest
Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!

Life is so unnerving
When it's clutter that you're serving.
CHAOS keeps you from the ones that you love.
It's just bondage to have all of these things.
Others need them so much more than you.
For years they've been rusting
Needing so much more than dusting
Needing loving and a chance to make you smile
You simply cannot organize this stuff.
It's not about the potion,
It's all about the motion!


Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!
You can only get rid of it!
You're not behind, just jump in where you are.
Don't you worry!
It's just stuff!
It's just stuff!
Don't let it call your bluff.
While the God Breezes are blowing
FlyLady will
keep you going.

Drawer by drawer
Zone by zone
Til you shout, "Enough! I'm done!"
Then you'll sing yourself to sleep on pillow fluffed
Peace will fill your heart up
Go ahead and start up
Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!
Fling your stuff!
Please, Fliiiing yourrrrrrr stuuuuuuuuuff!
