Getting back into the groove

Having a new baby always throws a wrench into things. After Ashton I tried to get "back into the groove", but discovered that with a baby (and every new baby) it's not so much getting back into the groove, but finding an entirely new groove. I think 3 to 4 has been harder than everyone told me. Mostly because it's just hard to find time to do everything! I finally seem to have worked exercise in. We've also figured out getting our errands done and preschool done. However, by the time all of that is done it's lunch and then nap time. Now where the heck am I supposed to clean during all of this? I also have to fit in 3 loads of laundry a day.
So our schedule has been...
wake up/get dressed
breakfast
walk outside for exercise
come home and change clothes (me)
go out to do errands
storytime
preschool work
lunch
nap (it's hard to do much during nap because of noise and kids sleeping in my bedroom)

Today I tried cleaning after preschool time and before lunch while the kids watched a movie. It worked out alright, but the we ended up eating around 1pm and they went down late for nap.
My good friend has one of those amazingly beautiful, clean houses and told me that she cleans one room a day and picks up the house every night before bed. I decided to try that and started in my VERY dusty cluttered bedroom. It's going to take me more than 1 day to finish it, but i figure if I can do one room a day then it'll be easier after I do the initial big cleaning of each. Before when i would just dust, I would miss a bunch of things like outlet covers and my bathroom mirror never got windexed. I'm hoping with 1 room a day I can be very complete in each room.
I'm really rambling about this plan aren't I? There's more! I have a little carrying bucket thing where we store cleaning supplies. I can just bring that into the room I'm doing along with the broom, vaccuum and paper towels and get to work. Also, I'll bring a bag for trash, something to put laundry in and possibly a basket to put things that belong in another room. That way I won't get sidetracked while walking around to different parts of the house putting things away.
So now I just have to figure out a block of time to clean. And NOT naptime or after the kids go to bed...i need to rest then!

Landon said "what he doing?" today when he saw a man getting into a tree trimming truck. He is also saying "i don't know" a lot and was telling his daddy over and over that he had a soccer shirt on.
Ashton didn't take a nap AGAIN today. I feel like he's starting to grow out of needing one. I told him he didn't have to sleep, but he had to sit quietly on my bed and I gave him a quiet toy to play with. He's amazing with a soccer ball. He dribbles all over the yard. Dan has big plans for him, but I dont want to push him into anything he's not ready for or dosen't want to do.

Goodwill rocked today! I found a new 3T wardrobe for Ashton. All Polo, Children's Place, Old Navy and Gap. It was in such good shape! short and long sleeved shirts, shorts, 3 pairs of jeans and a swim suit. I never want to have to buy any clothes new again! Not when I can get great stuff at goodwill for $1.80 a piece!

It's my night to cook dinner for us and Tonya. Mexican casserole...easy AND yummy. Then we're off to get our side by side double stroller. Go craigslist! We sold the back to back double Sunday.
