An Early Spring Cleaning!!

This week daddy was on vacation so we decided to take advantage of the extra helping hands and clean house!!! WOW were we in for a treat! We started in the laundry room, going through all the cute little girl clothes that we have been hanging on to for seven years now....All I can say is, "wow, there sure is a lot of pink and purple". lol we ended up donating over fifteen bags of clothes that we either did not wear, or did not fit anymore. I was amazed at how much we had and both Scott and I agreed it needed to be donated for families that were not as blessed as our family was! We then decided to move into Miss Madison's room. We are in the process of bunk bed shopping right now because when baby Branson makes his arrival the girls will be sharing a room, considering Madison has the biggest room in the house we figured it would be OK! Anyway, back with the story, Daddy and I spent over 5 hours in her room!!!! Cleaning out closets, going through toys boxes, and emptying out drawers!! I never realized exactly how spoiled our kids were until this point!! To make a long story short, we donated over five giant trash bags of toys being very careful to hang onto all the baby toys for Branson! The girls had so many toys, that over half of them were not even being played with anymore!!! Some little girl is going to be a happy camper when she gets all the goodies Maddie agreed to let go!

Though we have enjoyed having daddy home for a whole week, he unfortunately, has to return to work tomorrow. I myself, am sad. It was nice waking up every morning to him and the girls wrestling in the bed and hearing the girls say "Daddy, if you get up, we'll rub your back". Not to mention how nice it was to have two very well behaved little girls because daddy was home and they could not get away with as much as they do with mommy!!! lol
