Changing and organizing our home

Changing and organizing our home...

   Our house is small but our yard is big. Having a small house is warm and cozy, I truly love it. What I don't love is the clutter and mess that comes with it. I get very stressed and worked up over it. My husband is a much calmer person then I am. God was so amazing in giving me a patient husband who is so lay ed back about our home. 
  Today he bought me two book shelves to help organize my living room. my sewing area is such a mess and it is in our living room. Eventually I will have a sewing room, but until then I have this spot. Our schooling is done at the kitchen table, which surrounded my school supplies like a printer, rolling stacking drawers, and a book case. This is going to change. These areas are going to be less messy looking. 
   We also bought paint for the boys room. Their room is awful for them. It used to belong to my nieces, which was great for girls. The sparkly blue butterflies and flowers i mean. For my super hero boys this is awful. They are really into cars, dirt, super hero, animals and breaking things! haha. their room is going to be transformed into a wonderful superhero room fit for 3 little guys I adore. I can't wait to share all the pictures and how we did it. I finally will have some more things to post about.
stay tuned.

Boys belt

Boys belt...with a buckle.     Its really simple to make this belt. The part that makes it great for younger boys, like my three year old, is that it is easy for them to take on or off. I had made my boys D ring belts but they had a hard time getting them off when it was time to potty. Getting them on was a hassle for them too. So this time I thought about easy solutions. So first measure the length you want and opening size of your buckle. Then cut long strips of the fabric you want to use. My buckle opening was 1 inch. So I cut my fabric about 1 and a half inches wide and about 26 inches long. then I Serge the long sides. After that I used a safety pin to turn it right side out. Then I folded in the ends and stitched all the way around. Then you sew one end onto your buckle and lace the other end through the other buckle piece. Easy Peasy! I got the buckle pieces from Joann. But I am sure you can get them at any fabric craft store. Have a great day! Do...

sigh

Wow, So I intended to post all sorts of stuff here and somehow combine these posts with my other two very small blogs, but...I got pregnant! Yep we are having our 5th baby in January. I have been asking my husband for a new camera since mine wasn't what I wanted. I am still waiting on that, with all our expenses lately, it may be a long time away yet. I really hope I can start working on this soon the way i had planned to. who knows maybe on the weekends when we arn't in school (homeschooling all 4, even the babies) or after they are in bed. Other great moms find the time to share their creations through their amazing blogs! I know I can too, just got to figure out how. lol sigh, time to get ready for the busy busy day ahead.

Water Density Experiment

                 Water Density Experiment                                                            Homeschooling is such a fun way to learn. There is so much freedom in how far we can take  an experiment or how long we can work on it. The other day my husband started to explain to our kids why oil doesn't mix with water. So today we experimented with water density. There are different versions of this experiment and this is how we did ours.   Things needed : Oil, water, salt, sugar, food coloring, clear glasses or jars,measuring cup. Here's what we did: Step one: Fill three clear jars half way each with warm water. ( Helps the salt and sugar dissolve)  Pour 1/2 cup of salt in the first jar and stir it to mix. Pour 1/2 cup of sugar in the second jar and stir to...
