52 Weeks of Organizing~ Week 21

We had a short week at home last week, we did get our girly all moved into her new room. Nothing on the walls yet, trying to keep it to a minimum. Because, I am HOPING it is short lived. To add to our crazy that we have going on right now, we have decided to list our home for sale!

She went from the biggest to smallest room, no complaints!

Not going to be getting any organizing done this week. Instead we are making sure everything looks good for the photographer that comes next week. 
I am trying to get the kids on board with making sure their room is clean before school, that is not going over as well as I hoped.

I am sticking with my regular Weekly Cleaning and also making a note of things that need to be touched up, moved, etc.

I see a whole lot of work happening this weekend!
I think this combo of hoping to sell and being pregnant is making me crazy! We have sold a ton of stuff lately, I just feel like we really need to downsize "stuff" in general.
I hope this is my nesting and it doesn't turn into something crazy like paint every room or make the living room a play room crazy.

Meal Plan Monday~ Week 22

Hope everyone had a wonderful Memorial Day!

We have NO groceries, for sure on the list of to do's tomorrow.

Trying a couple new recipe's this week.

Tuesday~Flautas 
I just used some leftover chicken shredded it with some salsa and cream cheese. 
Mixed in some shredded cheese and rolled into soft taco shells. Spray pan before rolling them up, bake at 350 for 30 minutes.
Used this recipe as a guideline but I made it today before we had groceries so I improvised. 

Wednesday~Pork Chops & Veggies

Thursday~Grilled Cheese & Soup
These have been a major craving for me lately, 
in the rotation a little more often than usual right now.

Friday~Chicken Spaghetti
Using a couple different recipe's and making them work for us, no canned or processed and no expensive ingredients!

Saturday~Soup
I am not sure what kind yet, I am waiting to see what's a deal at the market.
Has to be in the crock pot, too many games and birthday parties

Sunday~Meatloaf & Mashed Potatoes

52 Weeks of Organizing~ Week 20


Went through every bin (after I vacuumed)
Sold a few things, took a whole bin worth to donate.
Sometimes it's hard to just let stuff go! Some of these seasonal decorations haven't been used in years but I was holding on to them for some crazy reason.

And I took that picture from the couch, being lazy.

This week was Emergency Packs, but I am moving that around to the last minute before we leave in a bit anyway.  I am going to take this week off from my list, we have had a crazy couple weeks. Thought we were having a girl, we are having a boy. Room was already painted and now we have some even bigger changes coming up. Going to spend this week moving our girly into the newly painted room, getting rid of some stuff she has outgrown and making a list of things we need to do before we leave!
