BEBE

* When they are too big to keep a mobile above the bed, I use a CD or K7 for music to help sleep. CD players, even the least expensive, have the advantage of allowing the programming of beaches … and then used a long time … (No need to buy each child)

* The wooden gate is no longer to Louise as a portico, but I kept the bar games and have hung above the table, occupies it! (you can see the portal at the bottom Budget)

TWINS

* When they were still “dumb” they could not say what their objects, but one year before they were to recognize them, I used different colors for identical items, but personal (tasses. ..), I tried always have the green (which means Peter) and another color for Thomas, it helps to remember grannies. Very early they were interested in color and were able to name them.

* For their clothes to help dad and grannies, in addition to having marked their name on their own shelf in the cupboard, I wrote a T or a P on the labels of clothes indelible pencil. Very early, they were interested in this letter, and inquired about the other letters in their names at 3 and a half years Peter had no trouble writing his name before he was 4 years old, head, write PAPA, MAMAN, PIERRE THOMAS and BEBE (Mary was not born yet …).

* And triplets, see things Murielle here: Murielle @ @.

ECZEMA (and bites, rashes …)

* Thomas was severely affected by eczema, it is extremely allergic to accariens. We were forced to use cortisone in doses, it went well, but since he has 4 years, his condition has improved, then for the plates that come back from time to time, I’m balm tea tree (World of baby), a disinfectant that helps to calm the redness. To moisturize the skin, I also used canola oil food (bio), much cheaper and better tolerated by the skin creams that specific …

* Louise refait un peu d’eczéma en ce pintemps 2004, notamment dans la nuque, là où l’étiquette du body peut aussi la gêner.. Instead of cutting the labels (for the information practices), I put the bodies inside out as yet, it covers something over .. Pending an improvement …

ORGANIZATION – STORAGE
* The girls start to have a nice collection of headbands to keep hair … put them in a bag is not very convenient for them and this tends to offend … So I installed the brackets on the inside of the door of their closet. Practice! As the store!

* Everything in its place is the best way not to lose time to search. We have drawers that allow this sort: that of the school (see my school) and health (the health card, orders for renewal …), the accounts and check books, that of Courses (Catalog Maximo boxes to write lists, coupons …) and batteries (in a cell sorter), the papers of the family (the Family, the Family Christian station maps, photos identities …), and then the tray cards (birthday, celebration, marriage, others …) to always have on hand, the drawer envelopes (all sizes), the tray “e” ( guide post, stamps …) etc..

Bills on the house, the records of the CPAM, the mutual, my salary slips, all of these papers to remain more or less long, are first placed in folders by type supendus in a cupboard, and then after for some time disposed of or stored in archival boxes.

* Trade journals, we read a lot, we just tokens, the least possible to tell the truth … but how?

There are journals that we can relieve by giving them (family, doctor …)

And then there are the magazines that we wished to retain at least one time. I concur in boxes of archives for the most part. Some will be “reviewed” after a year or two to keep only the “substance” (pictures for school, then archived in binders and sheets craft projects, recipes …) and of and others are archived. As soon as I have time, I list the contents, I already put all my Astrapi (period! Whose No. 1!), And my my Okapi GEO as their content may be useful to my small pupils. I also listed my sheets craft, sewing … I does not list my magazine pleasure (home escape …).

My journals embroidery (De Fil en Aiguille mainly) are stored in storage timber magazine (IKEA), see my page for my embroidery catalog.

And my dream is to find the coffee table in which I can leave my piles of Marie-Claire Idées and East Side for fun and always on hand … remains to find the model that suits me …

* When you spend hours in the waiting room with 1, 2, 3 … children, this is not always funny … it had to be fitted! Then I take with me a shopping bag, I put a little flexibility to change vanity Louise “in case”, a book for me, biscuits for children (especially an appointment in the late morning or when taste ), why not a little surprise for the children (I have a stock of gifts, at low prices or found in boxes in my closet!), a bottle of water if necessary, to bring the scarf if Louise is far from the car (less bulky stroller and that it also lay on the ground when she is tired arms!)

* To ensure that children do not get bored at the restaurant when we go as a family, still I take a bag with a “strictly necessary” games for big pocket, booklets stickers for small, Paper and pencils, 1 or 2 extra games for fun (like dolls), I use it for a bag of beach received as a gift, it comes with a mat that allows children to play on the floor, As Louise is sleeping, I expect a small blanket and a pillow so that it can relax a little.

* Each has its own face cloths so as not to “mix the brush”, each has its color (green = Pierre, Blue = Thomas = Mary orange …)

* In the same way, it is always in the car:

- A kit (offered at maternity) which contains 2 layers, 1 towel “guest”, samples of wipes and a plastic bag.

- A thermos filled with water

The vanity flexible Louise is also always ready, like the nursery bag contains permanently strictly necessary to win quickly without thinking …

the bag and its contents
A few years ago, a magazine published Castorama giving ideas, I stung it very practical for storing rolls of toilet paper on the wall behind the toilets, it is simple coat hooks that can be varnished or paint at will!

* I found in Germany, this fabulous family calendar for each month, each family member has his own column to note the appointment that concern. Here is the version at Jako-o (6 members), and for 2006 Thursday Today was edited to 5 members, Elmer version!

I myself made a 2003 word table with the school.

* My children make me a lot of drawings and small words that I still do not know where to put, I just get a hair underwear to hang, I have installed in my office.

* Here is a basket really practice it has an aluminum and polyester fabric, it is foldable and therefore takes up little space in this case, it is very useful in the trunk of the car, the handles are layers to allow and put things out easily, it has a small internal pocket (for the purse, the list of courses), a practice green idea! It is found easily in stores for home accessories, home and Eveil Jeux … Adopted in September 2005.
* This door bottle fabric is extremely practical for all situations where one must carry bottles (up to 9), whether out shopping or to go picnic, we find this item in stores accessories home in Mathon, Carp … Adopted since early 2005.

* I love photographing children, nature, beautiful things, so the photos are not lacking at home, but it is imperative to properly classify them if I want to go back. I concur first chronologically in albums numbered pockets legends. I range in the negative specific kits (Panodia) in an appropriate, I note the number of the film on each sheet (in chronological order simply), date, content. At the beginning of the workbook, on a summary sheet, I note the key: no film, date, content and number of the album where I can find these photos, it is greatly useful for reprints! I also extend my range index (miniature photos of a film 1 or 2 plates of photos) in this workbook, each sheet of negatives. In fact, I copied to the classification of my dad simply!

For children: I prepare each individual album, with blank pages on which I glue pictures of their significant life in chronological order too, as was their dad. So I had pictures of my child for me to be my turn my own album! They also each have an album “of my graduate school” where I glue pictures of class and the list of students, annecdotes of the year …

When on vacation:

As I learned from my dad, I have the habit of making lists of things to remember, to keep these lists from one year to another to prepare calmly baggage every year .. . I range them in shirts elastic “holiday”

Entry lists:

To eat / to sleep / To wash / dressing / Clean / Fun / Miscellaneous and if I forget something, I note once on holiday do not forget the following year ( it always happens that you believe in something without the rate a year and be forgotten the next year …)

Then I organize small bags to save time before, during and after the bag of clothes for girls, the bag of clothes for boys, our bag, book bag, the bag of girls for the car (books, games ), the bag boys in the car, the maintenance pack, the box of food, cooler, bag of towels / toilet, shoe bag … bag and each has its place in arriving at the scene, and returning it allows me to quickly store that is clean …
damn, I forgot to take a picture of the collection bags … the next time?

COMPUTER

* What is more infuriating than losing all of its e-mail addresses during a crash, theft of your PC?

In Word, if you click the right option when you type an email address or an Internet address (with http:// or www) it is automatically converted into clickable object. So I created a file EMAIL, I range my addresses (and contact persons) in a table organized in my own way. To write to one of them, I just press Ctrl while clicking with my mouse, opens a new message. to write to several people, I copy and paste addresses … So I do no one in my address book, so I minimize the risk of transmitting the virus to my knowledge! Do not forget to save the document!
