prepare the house for carpet cleaning

I need to get more organized so I'm trying to do a small blog post each day to keep me on track.

On Wednesday morning the carpet cleaner will be here ... so I have had this week and particularly the next two days to get the floor as clear and uncluttered as possible.

This is not happening a moment too soon as RJ is scooting along the floor at a great rate of knots.

Its not a full up on hands and knees crawl, but it gets him around ... Fast!!

A week ago he would move 360 degrees and get about 1 to 2 metres away from wherever you put him down.

Now ... if he sees something interesting across the room ... he heads straight for it.

Moves along a bit like a seal!!!

I have all of Kt's small toys boxed up in big labelled plastic containers. I don't know how it happened but last year we accumulated more toys with tiny parts than we have ever had before.

Kt is not keen for me to tidy up and organize her things when she is there ... she constantly kicks up a fuss and complains etc.

But when I do it while she is at school and she returns home to find her room tidy or her toys organized I am pleasantly surprised with how impressed and even appreciative she is of what I have done!!!

I am glad school holidays have finished and I have a chance to tackle a few of the things I have been meaning to get done for ages
