Let’s start at the beginning…

Before I became a mom, my routines were very different, I worked a 7-4 job, and Saturdays were my cleaning and laundry catch-up day, preparing for the week ahead. The dishes were always left undone. Honestly, I had no system.

Then I became a Stay-at-Home mom and quickly realized that what I had been doing no longer helped me. I was stressed, overwhelmed, and searching for solutions. I googled “routines” and learned that was the answer. I tried to copy what other moms were doing- but not everything fit my life.

I pieced together my own system. I kept the tasks that worked, and left out the rest.

Now with three boys, I finally felt like I was in a groove with keeping up with them and the house. Then baby girl came along, and I felt like I was back to square one with trying to keep up with a newborn, three boys, the laundry, the dishes, and school events. I knew I needed to adjust what I was doing. I made a shift. Instead of trying to overhaul my whole day, I focused on small consistent resets- especially in the evenings. And everything changed.
