Clean Home, Day 1.

It's that time of year when the spring cleaning bug catches many of us!

Last year this time I was 9 months pregnant & boy oh boy was I nesting, organizing, cleaning like crazy. I mean look at me, I should have been propping my feet up & propping a bowl full of ice cream on that baby bump:)


It's a relief to not be that hormonally charged over spotlessness this year & just have a relaxed pursuit at a lil' less chaos. Because you know, the baby arrived, and life has never been messier!


I'm taking part in this 30 Day Challenge for a cleaner home. Wanna join me? Here's some of what I did today during Julia's nap. It's easier to get deep cleaning/organizing projects done then of course!

Entryway AFTER!

Laundry AFTER!


This basket used to hold sweet baby blankets...til my lil' teether started chewing it up:)


Gotta go now, naptime's almost up & the living room looks like a tornado hit it...or a sweet baby girl!

with redeeming hands,
Rachel
