2025!

I started writing yesterday's post as I lay in bed after taking my sleep aid, so of course I fell asleep with this app open and the post half written, so let us try it again. 

Today is Thursday, the second day of 2025! Yesterday i tried to get in a workout, which didnt go as i planned between being massively out of shape, and my daughter trying her best to lay under me. Still ended up with sore abs that carried over into today! Addi and I also went over an educational poster about colors, played with her toys, watched some Bluey, and overall just enjoyed our time together. She has been doing something new that I am absolutely in love with, she spreads her are wide, then bends her elbows and pats her chest while saying "come here." To ask us for a hug, it is truly the sweetest thing ever. She has also started calling me 'Tay' though, so you win some, you lose some. Kurt smoked/ grilled some steaks and potatoes, and I was in charge of making the crab legs, you know, starting off the year on a high note. 
While I was in the kitchen Addison did decide to take up trick horse riding, fell off her little pony on a wheels, and she bust her lip pretty good. She was and is okay, her lip is bruised today though. 

Now let's move onto today, Kurt had a mine job, Addi had french toast for breakfast with watered down orange juice, we played with her blocks, I drank a few London fogs, made her a grilled cheese for lunch, we video chatted with my mom a few times, I vacuumed and used 409 spray in the guest room, did 1.75 miles on the excercize bike, I did push-ups against the handles the last .75, and I am still sore. Made fajitas for dinner, making sure to have Kurt's done as he walked through the door. We watched the wild, they won, brushed Addi's teeth, put her in a sleep sack, and Kurt took her to bed. Kurt took a shower, I took a bath and some sleeping aid. 
Oh how I wish I could fall asleep organically. I'm also going to start reading The Great Gatsby when I head upstairs to bed. 

Happy New Year!

Introduction

Welcome to Mama’s Not Organized! I’m Taylor, a mom navigating the beautiful chaos of parenting, productivity, and everything in between. Here, you won’t find picture-perfect routines or unrealistic advice. Instead, I’m all about sharing real-life tips that make life a little easier (most days), delicious recipes that are family-approved, and cleaning hacks that help me survive the messes without losing my mind. I’m also on my own journey of trying to stay focused and productive—especially with ADHD in the mix—so if you’re a parent feeling a little “all over the place,” you’re in the right spot. Let’s figure out how to get through the mess (literally and figuratively) together, with a healthy dose of humor, caffeine, and compassion.

Homemade Coffee Creamer: Potty Training Edition.

Today is Monday, Happy Monday! It is definitely a day that needs a lot of caffeine, so I'm going to share my coffee creamer recipe (it kind of reminds me of eggnog)  Ingredients: 1 3/4 cups condensed milk 1 1/2 cups milk 2 tsp vanilla extract 1 cinnamon stick 1 tbsp ground cinnamon 1 tbsp nutmeg Instructions: 1. In a saucepan, combine the condensed milk, regular milk, cinnamon stick, ground cinnamon, and nutmeg. Heat over medium-low heat, allowing the mixture to simmer for a few minutes until combined.  I got sidetracked with a toddler yelling "gotta go!" (We are in the thick of potty training) so i got to sit next to the toilet while my daughter told me all about how much she loves puppies and her dada. When I got back to the kitchen the coffee creamer had cooked down to more of a syrup than the usual milk like viscosity, but that is okay, it is just more condensed now so a little goes a long way.  Life can be crazy, Mondays especially so. Mondays with toddlers? We need ...

Tiny people hacks

Today’s post is all about the best hacks I’ve discovered since becoming a mom! 1. Garment Bags for Tiny Socks: Invest in two garment bags. When you take baby or toddler socks off those tiny feet, put them directly into one of the bags. When it’s laundry time, you’ll have all the socks together, ready to wash. With two bags, you can alternate—one for clean socks and one for dirty ones. This little trick has definitely helped keep tiny socks from mysteriously disappearing! 2. Hair Oil Magic: Do you have a little one with hair long enough for those tiny elastics? I swear by hair oil! We use a spray bottle (I think it’s by OGX), and it’s a lifesaver. Not only does it keep her hair soft, but it also helps break down the rubber bands, making it so much easier to remove them without pulling or tangling. A total game-changer for those little hairdos! 3. Diaper Rash Cream Hack: When my daughter has a diaper rash, I’ve found it gentler to spread the diaper rash cream directly into the diaper rat...
