DAY THREE...October 21, 2009

Notice any difference on the stairs?  Yeah, we had a visitor last night, or two.  There is also one pair of shoes missing and an additional pair added.  Last night there was some progress made!  She picked up all of the clothes that I put on hangers for her that were left on the stairs, but left behind the folded clothing,  the shoes and purses.  The clothing on the floor by the front door took my youngest two hurls.  One before bed and then one before breakfast.  I have a surprise for the kids on Thursday evening!  Cleaning!!  Yes, they will clean or stay home with us all weekend!

DAY TWO...Part 3 of 3...October 20, 2009

Here is the stack of hangers from her hallway that I convinced her to bring downstairs to the utility room..She was jumping over the hangers to get to out of her bedroom.  One would think it would be easier to bring them down with the dirty clothes.....

DAY TWO..Part 2 of 3...October 20, 2009

The clean rug that you saw yesterday...is littered with yesterday's school clothes, cheer clothing, pj's and towels.  She made her morning dump from upstairs on her way to breakfast and......left them there, as she jumped over them to get out the door for carpool.  I'm not leaving those there today, as we have someone coming over this morning! 

DAY TWO..Part 1 of 3...October 20, 2009

NO, she did NOT pick up her shoes and in fact they have company...the cheer shoes! Now we're up to 7 pairs! She didn't even pick a pair up from the stairs to wear today. She found another pair in her closet...

DAY ONE.... October 19, 2009

The picture of the clean rug at the front door is where the teenager throws her clothing downstairs and then later comes down to take them to the utility room on her way out the door. Or does she? Just wait.





Tomorrow, the rug will be littered with her clothing from the night before and who knows what I'll find! Today, I gave her my last warning about "forgetting" to pick her dirty clothes up. The picture of the stairs is, where I put the kids clean clothes, sheets, towels and shoes to put back in their closets. As you can see from the second picture, my youngest failed to pick up her shoes from the weekend. Seriously, six pairs of shoes for one weekend?
