i knew those little silver buckets would come in handy when i bought them 3+ years ago at the target dollar spot…ha!  now i have a place to put box tops, batteries, and small miscellaneous items!

last stop for this update…the toy bins!  i didn’t get any before pictures because i just plopped myself down and got started.  and for me, when i get going, it is best not to stop me:)  so…here the the “organized” toy bins.  we are using a few of the cubes for use other than toys and i hope to get all adult stuff out of there soon!

it may not look like a lot, but we got two garbage bags and a brown bag FULL of little misplaced pieces and older “baby” toys that my kiddos are growing out of.  anyone else doing the challenge?  i LOVE a challenge!  i may not get it done in exactly 40 days, but i WILL complete this.  i am at 9/40…WOW, i thought i was further along than that.  time to MOVE IT!
