The Spring Has Sprung

Happy-mess is as easy as 1,2,3!

It is starting to feel a little like spring, which I suppose means that we are shedding our layers, cleaning up and getting ready to be out more. I can't wait. I'm not thrilled about the cleaning part, but I have realized that there are some tricks that make it easier and more hassle-free.

When I first created the nomie baby car seat cover, I knew that if I had the problem with cleaning up, then other parents probably did too, and I was right. Now I see that there is an easier way of dealing with the ritual of spring cleaning. Here are my suggestions for cleaning out the car: get 2 bags, 1 for garbage and 1 for things you want to keep, but might need to wash or switch out. Now start attacking the inside of your car. I'm sure there are plenty of broken toys, spare mittens, and food wrappers littered around your car, and you can easily sort them into one of the 2 bags. After you have cleared out the winter's worth of stuff, take the nomie baby car seat cover off, shake it out and throw it in the washing machine to get ready for the next season of mess. If you don't have a nomie baby car seat cover yet, this is a great time to get one. There are 6 terrific colors, and if you enter "Spring" as the promo code on the website, http://www.nomiebaby.com, you'll get 10% off your order from now until May 1st. Now you'll be ready for those sticky ice cream fingers!

Here's to happy-mess!!
