Late nesting or OCD returns

(the kids' closet, yes all three in one closet - the boy's clothes going to the garage - kitchen cupboard)
Adam and I move, on average, every 2 years. With moving comes sorting, tossing and delving through all your junk that's accumulated throughout your stay in the house. Personally, I don't love packing things up and then immediately unpacking again within a short time period; however, I do love sorting through all my possessions. Since we have been in this house for 3 years now, I'm a year overdue for overhauling my things. I thought this desire was supposed to happen during the last few weeks of pregnancy, I guess I never got that desire due to the fact I already had a baby in tow at the time.
To most of you this does not come as a shock, because my entire growing up years I had a small case of OCD (I say small because my brother is much worse). So either this is late nesting or my OCD has returned. Either way my cupboards and closets look a lot better, and are labeled alphabetically. :) If you think I'm kidding you should know.......I love labeling!!

Come to my house, please!! You and Tyson are the worst, for sure. Not that it is such a bad thing to have...

My house is first before anyone elses. I even have a labeler you could use. I am in the process of trying to get a room to fit into a cupboard. (Moving the back bedroom so the kids can all have rooms.)

There is nothing wrong with being organized. I wish my house looked like that, I just am not very good at getting it that way.

Summer, you are amazing. I can't believe you actually lost your wedding dress for a time.

I want to be more organized, I love it when it happens but don't know how to accomplish it! Thanks for the ideas... I want to go buy some plastic containers for my baking goods RIGHT NOW!

I need some of that OCD stuff. I used to got thru my kids drawers and closets every year and have a yard sale to get rid of whatever they hadn't used for a while. Now its just boxes of their stuff in my basement and shed and garage.
