I am trying VERY hard to get organized, and it's just NOT happening. My sisters house is very tidy and organized, and she's given me some good ideas, but I simply cannot seem to GET IT DONE--what with 3 kids and all. My goal is to do something soon, but I'm not sure what. Maybe I'll just bomb the house and collect the insurance money.
I do know that mealtimes around here are a bear. I just get started cooking when Nate decides he needs to EAT NOW, as does the Divine Miss M. I run the risk of traumatizing 2 children for life, or burning my dinner, neither of which are good options. So, what I'm thinking of doing is following the lead of a friend of mine and making enough meals for a month..kind of like those places you go to. I've checked out www.30daygourmet.com and have found a few recipes.
Now to get organized and buy the stuff and plan a nice Sunday afternoon sans children but embracing a nice bottle of Cabernet while playing Julia Child for a while. I think it would make mealtimes go smoothly, don't you?

hahahahahahahahahahaha...good luck and let me know how it all works out!!!
Truly though, you are o.k. so your kids get "easy food" for a little while. I swear the hardest thing I did for the first 6 months was chicken breast on the George Foreman, butter noodles and microwaved frozen vegies. Served with a different sauce i.e. barbeque, ranch, terriaki, let me tell you we had that at least 3 times a week! You will NOT scar them forever!
By the way your sister has 1 BABY... HUGE HUGE difference!!!! Let see what happens when you add 2 more!
Are we supposed to be organized? Now I am WAY behind schedule! I have let a lot of things go. I chose some things that are a priority and put everything else on the occasional list. It's not a perfect schedule but it works for me/us. Your kids are healthy and happy, so you are doing just fine!
