Organization is KEY!

I have learned that staying organized is very important since having a child. I have always been a very organized person which has helped me keep track of my son's things.  We were very fortunate to have received a lot of clothes and hand me downs, but space to store it all was lacking.   Clothes have been the only thing I've had to organize thus far and I have found a system that works best for us. We are still brain storming what we are going to do with all his "gear" and toys.

Here has what has worked so far.

These dividers help to keep the different sized clothes organized.   Many people have purchased things for when Jackson gets bigger and these dividers are great because I can easily scan his closet for what items he already has.

Drawer dividers have helped keeping socks, hats, bibs, burp cloths, jammies and cloth diapers all in their place and easy to find.  Each divider is spring loaded and are adjustable.  They come in different heights as well to suit the size of your drawer.  I have had luck finding these on Amazon.com. for great a great price.

We were fortunate that all our closets in our new house were fully equipped with ELFA shelving.  We re-configured the closet in the nursery to better suit our needs.  The pull out baskets are my favorite part!  Right now I am using them to store extra items we are not using, but will convert them to "toy baskets."

Please pass along any more organization tips you may have!


Jackson is 5 months and 3 weeks!
