So my friend told me i was wierd because when i make my DD pick up her toys at night, everything goes in a specific spot...like her dishes go in one container, her play food in another, her shapes in the bucket they came in, the legoes in the bus they came in, etc....does anyone else do that?
Oh and it unnerves me if i cant find one of her shapes (like we couldnt the other day urgh)
I just call that being organized, lol.
I hate it when the toy/game cabinet is messy.
Missi....loving wife to Jason, mommy to Ricky (1-12-05), and soon to be mommy to Logan Douglas (due Feb 2010). I'm a cloth diapering, baby wearing, breastfeeding till baby wants to quit, homeschooling, non-circumcising, anti-cry it out, part time working, animal loving, trashy romance novel reading, farm raised hillbilly. I have had Meningitis and Swine Flu and lived to tell about it. Any questions?
Growing up my mother would say "Everything has a place and everything IN it's place." Meaning you put things where they belonged. I do the same thing. I want thing put back while maybe not in a specific spot I do think my son's lego's need to go back in his lego box, puzzles go on the puzzle shelf, books on the book shelf, etc.
My DD has a toybox for her random stuff, but her things that she has a lot of, i see no reason for them goin in thier places...Dh tells me "why dont you organize the rest of the house that way" LMAO!

LOL How is that weird? You are teaching her to clean up after herself and to be organized! Sounds good to me!
Its funny because my kids toys are the only thing im overly organized about...i mean, in my kitchen things do have thier own place, but i can go 2 or 3 days without doing dishes and stuff
Quoting Phoenix_sp:
I do that too. DSs cars go in one place, his geotrax in another, etc
I agree, its being organized... then again DH frequently calls me neurotic for my cleaning and other habits lol
Because when you walk in her Dds room, you'd be afraid it will swallow you lmao!
