    Hi Catherine! If you are able to get your son I there to help declutter the closet, I think putting all the clothes in there is a good idea! Maybe a cube shelf with bins for the things that can't hang. Then he cud put the stuff away that goes in the bin. They don't even need to be folded, he could just put them in there. And if the bin gets too full then he has too many clothes for that bin. That might help with the overwhelm and lessen a little of the folding, then u can just hang the other things!

    I only keep coats in the closet for my kids and i have a very small amount of clothes for them. Each kid has about 1 large drawer for their clothes. I dont bother folding them. I group them by short sleeves, long sleeves, and bottoms. The baby is sorted by onesies and sleepers. Then i just throw them in the drawers as groups and it saves so much time not folding!

    Hi Catherine great video as usual, just as a little tip but hopefully useful, when you said your back was burning constantly folding sorting gathering laundry, when working have your laundry facing in front of you, I have a bad habit of twisting my upper waist to the left or right not aligned with the front of my feet and causes sooo much pain on my back when I get burning feeling in my tired back I think back on what activity I was doing, and yeah I wasn’t aligned properly and didn’t balance my body equally while intensely working on a project or chore, enjoy your trip!

    I think you should definitely take some time soon and work on Carson's closet project. Maybe 10-30 minutes per day so its not too overwhelming. If you are going to sell the house soon, then maybe set up his closet in the new house with some sort of simple organization from the beginning. I need to do some organization projects myself. 😊🎉

    For Carson's closet, maybe remove those little containers off the inside of the door. Put all the little things from them into a lidded box, like a "junk drawer" for him. Hang one or two towel bars on the inside of the door and drape extra blankets/bedding on those.

    Sue Wolfe- I have 3 grown sons who had millions (it seems) of toys and sports cards. I found that upright bookshelves were the most helpful to store the card books as well as reading books. We got them good quality ones they still have. You can fit more and have more room than that short one in Carson's room and free up some closet space. Enjoy this season of life. I miss it so!! 👌👍❤️❤️

      It’s also helpful to have a twin size mattress for grade school aged kids. This way you have more space for bookshelves. A loft bed is another good option if your son doesn’t want to give up the full size bed.

    For the drawers that are under the bed in your sons room, could you store the extra bedding/blankets in there? For the Monday - Sunday drawers do you still use that? If not maybe use that to store the toys from the over the door shelving. Is there anything in the closet that could go into that over the door organizer? Just trying to think outside of the box.

    Hey Catherine, I love seeing your videos every week! I love seeing the before-and-after pictures of the cleanings. I can't wait to see more videos every week! I love seeing your little kiddo in the background. I hope I have the energy to get my steps in because of a challenge at work. ❤❤❤

    I watch your videos each week, and I love all of them! I’m a divorced mom of 2, living in southeastern MA. In fact, I think we live relatively close to one another! My son is 11 and my daughter is 8. I have a house very similar to yours, where storage is always an issue! My son is going to be some sort of Fortnite character, and my daughter a zombie cheerleader! Lol

    Can you can take off the side rail of your sons crib to become a toddler daybed? This could help with the transition. Just get a guardrail for the bed. Your son will be able to climb on and off and it won’t be too much of a change. After he masters the potty training you can reward him with getting a big boy bed with his choice of bedding.

    Good morning from Australia. You are a wonderful mama. ❤❤❤You should be very proud of yourself. Have you considered the 50/50 principle for your little angles cloths. This principle basically is kids only use 50% of their clothes, the other 50% they don't and you the mama is the one who ends up washing and folding it all. It'll make your wash day easier and folding will be a breeze. Devide all the cloths and put in piles, like shirts, pants etc then grab 2 cloths baskets. Get your angles to help if it will help, eg, if they have 14 long pants 👖 leave 7, do the same for shirts 👕 and so on. Try it for a couple of weeks and see how it goes. You don't have to disgard the unused items while trials are ongoing. Put it cloths separately in a tub and store away. So the idea is as humans we only really wear 2 sets of cloths a day, day cloths and p.j's. I encourage you to try thr 50/50 principle, less washing, folding, washing basket clutter, backaches and stress. Remember you are a lovely beautiful mama ❤ 💕 💖 ♥ 💛

    Sutton can be Toad or Yoshi!
    I hope you enjoyed seeing Taylor! From the videos that I've seen since the tour started, it looked like it's an enchanted place to be with thousands of fellow Swifties. I was actually lucky to be able to purchase two tickets when she came to Melbourne, Australia. However, my friend, who is a bigger Swiftie than I, wasn't so lucky. So I decided to sell my ticket to her so she could go.
    I don't have kids, only furbabies- two cats. But IM going to Halloween party & I'll be dressing up as Wednesday Addams *click click*.

    I think we all need to consider and think hard about all those new appliances. You are happy with the toaster oven (don't know what that is, it's not a thing, where I'm from) but we all are under the pressure to buy new stuff, that we don't need. Do you have an oven? Yes. Do you need a combined toaster and airfryer? No. None of us needs those things. The carbon footprint on all those appliances are just 🤯
    Stop buying things you (and all of us) don't need!
