HELP!!!


OK, friends and whomever else may read this from time to time. I am in desperate need of your help! Ever since we had Sam I cannot seem to get a handle on the laundry situation in our home. Before Sam was born I had a great plan and was only doing laundry two days a week. Now, I NEVER have it caught up. Currently there are 3 loads unfolded, one load folded, but not put away, and a partly folded load on our dining room table. So, what's a lady to do???? I can't get a good plan in place, it's hard to believe that one little person could throw off an entire routine! Any suggestions of how to tackle this mountain of laundry?

I'm no expert but I do laundry every other night, dry it when I go to sleep (since it's hot in the apt/kitchen) and fold in the am but have the advantage of having older kids so they put their stuff away. We have "king" washer and dryer and I don't have many whites so it's one big load on cold.... Weekends I'll do extra linens, etc. It's so hard with little ones and multiple clothing changes! But it also makes me feel messy with clothes lying all around so I say just get rid of them all at one time as quickly as you can... Blessings on the journey of parenthood! Miss you.

That is a helpful idea Bev. Nikki all I can say is that I am right there with you. In fact as I type this I am looking at a pile of folded clothes. I am starting to teach Micah and the twins to put away their clothes. That helps. Miss you too.
