Thank you very much!

Here's a list of things that I have just been LOVING lately

and are making my life

less chaotic

in small and simple ways...

I love Erba Organics baby wash & lotion. It's gentle and safe for baby's skin and it's DELICIOUS smelling. Boys that don't smell like sweat, pee-pee, snot or dirt but instead smell of spearmint and other yummy things make me just feel more peaceful and content at the end of a long day! Cashmina sheets. People, you have not experienced comfort until you've tried sleeping on these sheets. My parents got these as gifts for my brothers and Steve and I last Christmas and we were all skeptics. ("I think we'll be too hot..." "I really like my other high-thread-count sheets...") Nothing compares with these. They are definitely sheets for the cooler seasons and I have to tell you after a summer sleeping on our "crunchy" sheets I could not wait to put them on my bed today! The stresses of a long day just melt into the fluffy softness of these perfect snugglies. Camelback water bottles are the best! They make me feel less crazy because they are like a sippy cup for adults that are also kid-proof! (Genius!) That means my kids don't get to share Mommy's water bottle and get their slimery germs all over. It also means that I can manage to chug down water while on the elliptical without spilling all over myself! I am in love with my vacuum! This little sucker (it's called the Infinity) is like a Dyson in it's suction, but not in price. After vacuuming my house all the way through ONE TIME it sucks up enough dirt to fill the entire bag-less container...and it makes my carpets look like I have steam cleaned them. I mean, I know I have more dirt in my hosue than the average person but I'm telling you, this is the best vacuum for the price. I'm in love. Anything that makes my house look and feel that clean with 3 little boys makes me feel far less crazy and gets my ultimate stamp of approval.
I planted some Sweet Peas this year in our garden and I just think they are the perfect little flower. A small vase of cut Sweet Peas on my kitchen windowsill fragrances the air around my kitchen where I spend lots of time. I don't think there is a flower that smells more delightful than these and just catching a little smell here and there puts me in a better mood sometimes.
