Spring Cleaning

Obviously it's been a low key weekend because I have blogged everyday! That isn't normally like me over the weekends, I am usually too busy! Since Spring welcomed our town with snow, we have been indoors all weekend. I must say it's been very relaxing & exactly what I have needed.

However, we did decide to start our Spring cleaning! Normally we do this when it's warm outside & we can open the windows & air out the house. Since we were pretty much stuck inside we decided to gut it out Saturday! We spent our entire day cleaning! Our closet was the main thing that we wanted to conqour. We had so many things that needed to be taken out that either didn't fit, was old, etc... So we went through every little piece of our clothing from socks to underwear to shoes & put everything that was still decent in a bag to get rid of. We ended up with 3 whole bags from our closet itself! I also cleaned out our bathroom drawers & got rid of some stuff that we don't use to make it easier when we get ready in the mornings! I had headbands EVERYWHERE in our bathroom. So I even piled them together & made a nice home for them.





Avery enjoyed playing with her toys all weekend & just being cozy at home. She even did something new! While we were in the closet cleaning we heard her banging on the window. I wasn't sure how she was doing it so I went in there to check on her & she was standing up in her pack & play. She has been doing it all weekend, so I caught a picture of her! My baby is growing up before my eyes!



Since Easter is right around the corner, I went ahead & started my Easter decorating. Thought I would show you a sneak peak but Im not finished with everything yet. I loved what I did this year! When I think of Easter decor I think of greens, pinks, birds, eggs, springy, colorful, fresh! So I tried to do my table like that!

In the spirit of Easter I wore these adorable little house shoe socks that my momma bought for me to keep my toes warm!


My sister in law & my brother came over to spend the afternoon with us to watch TV & eat Pizza. We enjoyed being lazy. My brother cuddled in my snuggie so I had to catch a cute pic of the boys sleeping. While they slept Tiff & I enjoyed relaxing, talking on the couch! What a perfect Sunday today!





And I almost forgot- I got a cute picture of Avery showing her two bottom teeth! She now has 4 teeth coming in!

  1. Avery is so cute! I love that name, it was near the top of the list for my daughter.

    Glad you got some cleaning done - that always feels so good! I need to do some of that around here too.

    Love the picture of the boys sleeping. My husband just got back from a weekend with his college buddies and I bet there were some similar scenes there too - but not sure they had a snuggie. :)

  6. Ashley looks like you got lots accomplished! I sooo need to spring clean our closets! Greg worked on Kelcee's room all weekend! We are re-doing the whole thing into a big girl room! That is where my new blog design was inspired....it is zebra, pink, blue, green/white polka dots....fun fun....

    I laughed out loud with your BIL on the couch in your zebra snuggie....that's funny! I know this is random but I was at Target and do you know they make snuggies for doggies too....that's sooo funny! I almost bought one for my Mi-Mi's doggy! I am glad your SIL is feeling better! Yay for Avery standing up!

    I heart your bunny shoe socks and the decor looks fab! I cannot wait to see more! I wish I could decorate like that!

  9. You did some awesome cleaning here Ashley! We just cleaned out both of our closets this weekend as well and donated bags of clothes to the Goodwill. It must be the warm weather getting me motivated.

  11. You go girl, with your closet! I need to do the same thing, AGAIN! I just cleaned out our closet not too long ago, and I already need to do it again, AHHH!

    Sounds like you guys got pretty much the same weather as us, but you guys got a few more inches of snow than we did. I thought it was supposed to be spring? BOO :(

    Have a great week, friend!!
