Hi, today is my first day of blogging. I'm hoping this site will keep me in touch with friends and family who don't get to see me often. As well as those who are interested in the musings of a SAHM. I will be placing info about me and the family, as well as interesting tips, recipes, etc.. to help others with organizing their families and lives.
For those of you who do not know me, I am married and have 2 dc - a girl (nic) and, of course, tom. I did not realize, until after I named my son, that my children have the same names as Nicole Kidman and Tom Cruise. I honestly wanted my kids to have names that nobody we knew had. Nothing drives me crazy as 6 Madisons or 8 Liams in a class(when my daughter was born, we personally knew 6 different Madisons and 4 Emmas). As a person who's name was popular in the 70's and had 4 other Michelle's in her class, I wanted my children to be different and stand out. I did not want to name them, however, after fruit or some missed drug episode (hence, no Apple or Moonbeam). (My apologies for anyone who did name their children the aforementioned names, its not personal)
I really enjoy being a SAHM. I do not like house cleaning though. I will try every product and hint to make my life as easy as possible. Therefore, today's cleaning tip will be to Mr. Clean's Magic Reach in honour of the fact that I have to clean my bathrooms tonight. I think this product is awesome. There is no more leaning over or reaching to clean the bathtub and shower stall. I only have one complaint and that is that the foaming cloths do not stay put on the head as well as I would like. I think the company work on this. Otherwise, I love this product and would highly recommend it.
