do a little cleaning everyday, to keep it from becoming a BIG job.

Use baking soda to scour sinks and bathtubs. It makes your hands soft, and has no harsh chemicals.

don’t let little things pile up (if you can do it when you see it, don’t wait!), and add some music in to make it less of a chore

My favorite cleaning tip is to heat a bowl of water and lemon juice in the microwave for about 10 minutes and then let it cool off for a couple of minutes. Helps to soften all the baked on gunk and make cleaning it easy!

Declutter!! I am expecting twins and doing major declutter to make my life easier down the road. My sister-in-law and niece even came over to help make it fun and give me encouragement to throw away stupid junk.

My favorite cleaning tip is to use vinegar for cleaning. I live in the country, so most products aren’t septic system safe, so I clean regularly with Vinegar and other natural products that won’t harm my system, the added bonus is that there are no chemicals to affect my small dog, and my two small children, who love to ‘help’ mommy!

I wipe down the shower and spray a little mrs. meyer’s all purpose cleaner every morning. Non-toxic, quick and easy, and my shower is always clean! I also make my bed every morning, helps start the day off right.

If your crunched for time, at least spray down your counters and clean them and it will ‘smell’ like the whole house is clean!!

After cleaning my shower, I spray it with lemon pledge and buff clean. It really helps keep my super hard water from building up on the clear glass.

My favorite tip is to set a timer and have the kids pick up their toys before it goes off. Since it is a game to them they love to see who can do it faster and in the end all the toys are put away!
