Day 3 - Rest

Except not.  While I took a break from the 40 Bags in 40 Days challenge, I did our menu plan for the week and made a shopping list and sent M out to the stores while the girls napped.   Then I sorted and folded and packed away clean clothes, including selecting the kids' clothes for most of the coming week.

Our girls now share a room (as of this weekend!) and that means they share one 6-drawer dresser and a small reach-in closet.   We have two of these 6-compartment soft-sided organizers hanging in the closet:

On Sundays I go through and select the girls' outfits for Monday through Saturday and put one outfit in each compartment, complete with undergarments and socks.  That way during our busy weekday mornings all we need to do is grab the contents of the day's compartment in order to dress the kids.  There's no hunting through drawers for a clean onesie for H, no listening to L sob that she wants to wear the purple shirt and not the red one, and most importantly no need for me to rely on M to try to match up coordinating separates for the kids to wear to daycare.  Sundays are more laid back and we take a couple of minutes to select the outfits that the kids will wear to church.
