Task number 3

Wow! Cleaning up Julia's room took me a lot longer than I thought it would. Of course during that time I had to make and do other things. It is hard when you are trying to clean and organize but you have a whole life to run along with it. So lets start with a visual of what I started with.
Yikes! What a mess right! Can you believe what I had to start with. So much to do...I cant believe I let it get this bad. The floor was really just the beginning. If you look the doll house is trashed all of the furniture is covered with something. Totally crazy!

One hour later the room looked like this!

And then hours and hours and a day passed and I finally got to the point where the floor was clean. I cleared the room and decided to do it up right with a cleaned carpet. I shampooed the floor and made it sparkle but before I did that it looked like this.


And I even had a little help when it came to the final clean up. And then when I got everything moved back in and put together I heard from my daughter. "Thanks for making my bed beautiful." And it does look great. It is amazing how a truly clean room makes you feel. There is a certain peace in her room now...and I love it! An added bonus is that it has stayed clean thus far. In fact I took these pictures this morning.
I am pretty happy with the results of it all. And the added bonus of it all is that Julia is sleeping in her own room by herself. Not only have I start to clean out the closets and rooms I am now working on the bad habits that we have established in the girls as well. And so far so good. We are sleeping in our beds and pooping in the potty...Life is pretty good!
