Hello and Welcome!

Welcome to my blog, Preparing Mom! My name is Jess, and i am a 25 year old mom to be (1 month to go!). My blog is focusing on the things that i have put together to help manage my home, my pregnancy, and will help make being a new mom easier, not to mention keeping things in order for To-Be-Baby Kaylee.

I will be doing product reviews periodically, so if you have a product in mind, or a general topic (like easy or cost effective storage options), or have a product of your own, send me a message by e-mail (windsorite0490@gmail.com) or leave a comment on any page, and i will make it one of my topics!

Enjoy!

Post 2 - A Decluttering Guide

Decluttering… Oh what a productive and rewarding pass time!! Quite honestly it's been driving my man up the wall because I keep re-configuring the house into ways that I find more convenient for myself. Also he is a bit of a pack rat and doesn’t like getting rid of anything at all!! put it this way, we have 3 dressers, 2 sectional sofas, and a second dining table (not including the patio set) along with a futon that we re-purposed into the garage just to clear up space in the basement.
