Mounds of Clean Laundry

by Christine - From Dates to Diapers on September 27, 2007

Today was quite a day… My kiddos and I folded 10 (yes, TEN) loads of laundry!! I should have been going through it to pull out the clothes that they have all outgrown, but I guess that’s for another day. My, how fast they grow! Seems it’s time to buy a whole new wardrobe for each of them. Do you know how expensive it can be to buy new clothes for six kiddos every season??? Ugh!!

Now that I am finished with my clothing rant (who knows how I got going), I want to tell you about a couple of giveaways you should check out –
