Organize, Smorganize AKA How I get everyone where they need to be

I try to stay organized.  I really do!  It's not easy being the CEO of the household.  I have 5 different schedules to manage.  And as many times I share the schedule with DH, he never seems to remember it.  Annoying!


MomAgenda is an amazing website with tons of organizing planners and items to make a mommy's life a little more manageable.




Every year I "arm" myself with a new momAgenda (this year it will be this). The momAgenda Mini-Daily is great to carry in your purse and allows you to keep the family's schedule at your fingertips.  The calendar runs from August to August, so it is perfect to pick up when you are shopping for all those school supplies.
To keep my hubbie on track, I use a Family Planner.  I copy the schedule from my Mini-Daily to the Family Planner that is magnetically attached to my fridge.  There are no questions about who belongs where because everything is posted.



If you can see the picture clearly, the Family Planner has the same format as the day planners.  There is a large section at the top for my appointments, where I also include all family events as well.  There are four smaller section below.  I use one for each child and DH.  In addition, there is small box to plan for dinner.  The Desktop and Mini-Daily also include monthly calendars, which I use to keep track of bills due and birthday parties, an area for party lists, vacation planning,and holiday calendars by year.  There is also an address book that is detachable, which is transferred between planners easily.  Can you get anymore organized than this?


I also have the Kitchen Folio.  I use this to keep track of the kids' physicals, class lists, doctor information, and important phone numbers for the babysitter (in the unlikely event I mighty actually go out WITHOUT the kids!)



I can't say enough great things about momAgenda.  Its products have helped keep my family "on track" and me where I have to be.

Luckily for you, momAgenda is a offering a great deal! 

Can't wait to get my Mini-Daily in the mail!
What systems do you use to keep the family "on track"?

"Hers-Day" Review and Giveaway!

My little peanut has be screaming since the minute she woke up.  Poor baby is teething and miserable!  I totally get it, but Mommy needs a break. Today I need to take a few minutes for myself, cuz it's gonna be a LOONG day.  So as the "princess" sleeps, I am going to take a scream-free shower. This is what I use to spoil myself a little. I love this stuff!  It has a mild and fresh scent and leaves my skin silky smooth.  It lathers up nicely and is easy to shave with.  I have used this since high school.  Sometimes the smell helps me forget for a few minutes that I am a 30-something with kids (that is until someone knocks at the door to tell on his brother!). For my second giveaway, I would like share Neutrogena Rain Bath with one of my readers. Let's pretend we are back in high school together! :) <a href="http://rafl.es/enable-js">You need javascript enabled to see this giveaway</a&amp...

Review and Giveaway- Sally Hansen Salon Effects

Let's just get this clear.  I have NO talent when it comes to anything cosmetic.  I can't apply eyeshadow, I look stupid in lipstick, and cannot paint my nails without smudging.  So you can believe how excited I was when I found Sally Hansen Salon Effects in my local drugstore. The Salon Effects are essentially stickers, although SH calls then "polish strips". They vary in color, and designs.  Some are basic and others are WILD.  I have tried Wild Child (a zebra-like print) and It Girl (solid pinkish color). For this review, I applied Bling It On to my toes.  You know I must really love you guys to post pictures of my feet!  Each box of Salon Effects comes with 16 Nail Polish Strips (in case you make a mistake), a cuticle stick, and a double sided nail file and buffer. 1. I prepped my toes by filing, shaping, and wiping them with nail polish remover . 2. I took off the clear protective cover and pulled the polish ...

Back to school

Do you remember how you felt the first day of school?    I was always excited, but really nervous.  Who is my teacher?  Is she nice?  Do I have friends in class with me? This morning I watched my older children start school.  Again I had the same feelings.  Who are their teachers? Will they be nice?  Will they take the time to understand my children.  Will my boys make new friends? I anxiously awaited their return today.  I could not wait to hear about their day.  Can you guess what response I got? "It was good." That's it!  After all that worrying and anxious energy I exerted, all I got what that school was "good" and "can I have a snack?" Gotta love kids!  Hopefully they will not grow up to be a worry wart like their mom.
