After Christmas Chaos!

Well, Christmas has come and gone. Now it's time to start cleaning up our mess from Christmas, yes it's the 28th and our house is still a mess from the gifts we opened on Saturday morning. Judge me. Jason and I have been beyond exhausted all week, he has a cold and I'm just tired from working so much. We haven't had time to make them put away their toys and yesterday when they tried to put them away we realized the organizer we had just wasn't big enough for all the junk we had. Despite getting rid of a lot before moving and right before Christmas, it still wasn't cutting it. This is what happens when you have nine kids, they each get presents from all the grandparents, Santa, aunts, uncles, cousins, and of course their parents! It adds up fast! So yesterday before dinner, we went out and bought a new organizer that is still sitting in the box downstairs because I slept in and had to work super fast to get everything I needed done, hopefully after lunch I can at least attempt to build it. My kids won't be very happy once it's built, they're going to have to clean every single toy up and make my living room look like a living room again! I am so thankful we have enough money to provide for our kids and to have this beautiful house, but right now I'm a little overwhelmed. Luckily, little to our kids knowledge, the New Years resolution we're making as a family is to spend less, which includes less on toys! Sorry kids! Wish us luck on that on, because Jason and I are known for buying things randomly.
