With our weekly baby doc appts on the horizon, Eli starting school, bills piled up and never opened, my coaching business at home, etc....it was TIME for a CCC! This is a central place for the family to stay organized and have important papers, etc ALL in one place. It's a place to "Check in" for calendar and daily to do lists, meal plans, school business, etc. Here are my tips in case you decide to start also:
Find a central place that works for everyone. Make your list of "must have's for your family":
Ours were:
* Monthly Calendar - without it our life is a MESS (still filling it in)
* File Hanger -
1. Financial Peace (contains our budget, incoming-pending-paid(to file) folders
2. Mommy & Daddy folder (for all things important) ;) & a BABY file for all baby's papers
3. Eli's school folder (found this cute anchor folder for his new "Anchor" school) :)
* Corkboard - Important invite cards, lists, etc
* White board - Inspirational quotes, important reminders, etc
* Clipboard to print out weekly or monthly meal plans - a MUST as I haven't been doing it
* Basket - Backpack drop off
To my fellow Coaches, Sisters, Friends, Family - PREPARATION is KEY as we KNOW. What better time to get organized than having the Fall season on the horizon? Hope this may help you with a few ideas anyway. We'll be focusing on Meal Prepping ALOT in Sept! I'll be sharing a Meal Plan template that you can print for your home too.
