Ready for battle!
Jeff laughs at me because when I make the bottles for the night/day they HAVE to be lined up just like this in the fridge. Everytime I open the fridge I get a little giddy over my perfectly straight line of bottles. Yes, I am crazy - they remind me of a line of soldiers - ready for battle - the battle of the hungry, crying baby!

And if you know me, you know I LOVE to organize things (except my desk and scrapbook table which look like a tornado hit). Before the babies came I sat in their nursery and folded all of their little clothes. Heaten got the top drawer of the dresser so Shenzie got the top drawer of the stackable dresser in the closet. No favorites here! In the closet boy clothes on the left girls on the right. I told Jeff it was like Christmas - all of the tiny little clothes hung in their proper places! Does it get any better!?! Everyone laughed and said ‘Just wait - pretty soon all of the clothes will just be thrown in the drawers with no rhyme or reason’. Hahahah, I sure showed them. Everything is just as neat and tidy as it was before the babies got here.

Always the planner, we haven’t even started solids yet, but I am ready! You can imagine my giddiness when I came home with their first solids. I made room in the pantry and lined them up all nice and pretty. Although looking at the picture I wish the greens were with the greens and the oranges with the oranges, but whatever. At least this way I won’t get them confused with one another.

You are so funny and haven’t changed a bit. I wish I was more organized, I’m mostly just a crazy mess at all times.

I just LOVE the bottles and solids. Very cute! Totally something I would do (and did!).
You guys all look so great. The babies are adorable. I just love your photos. Your blog is great!
