BACK TO SCHOOL CLEAN WITH ME DECLUTTER + ORGANIZE & RESTOCK | CLEANING MOTIVATION FREEZER MEAL PREP

[@stephaniebrundige2428]

As someone who loves kids and can't have them I appreciate anyone willing to share their family with us. Funny side note, my nieces' name is Addison Emery. Thank you for all the motivation and inspiration! I can tell how much you love your family and want to encourage them to grow in to independent, intelligent, kind women!

[@stormihale9485]

I have a niece whose name is Addison Embry!

[@sheilaopatchen2267]

Ditto here Stephanie! It’s a little bittersweet sometimes to watch but my neighbor has five of them. So anytime I’m feeling sad about it, I just ask her if she would like a break and I babysit. That usually does it….they can be so so loud 😂 but they are such sweethearts.

[@cynthiameans]

I appreciate it when Jamie shows the products she's using...I now see other YT's doing the same thing. I lived in my current home for 7 years not knowing my windows were tilt-in until I saw Jamie do it. This helped soooo much...I can now just tilt in my windows and clean them myself without having to pay someone to clean them!

[@JamiesJourney]

Thanks for sharing that! It's so nice to hear!

[@onioncrumbs]

Jamie I just want to tell you how incredibly uplifting your videos are. Our lives couldn’t be more different yet your videos bring me so so so much comfort, especially on hard days. Thank you so much for sharing!!! Also I can’t believe the twins are off to kindergarten 🎉 cheers

[@NoMessJess1]

You are so right when you say how quickly the time goes by. My oldest graduated high school last school year and my youngest is starting pre-school this year ( I have 4 children total). I look at my youngest (named Addison!) and know that I have to cherish these moments, the days are long but the years are short.

[@vivianreitsma8619]

I want to say that I love your video’s! Good combination of cleaning, organising and family life. My oldest has turned 4 in july and wil start primary school in 2 weeks. We live in the Netherlands and kids start school here when they turn 4. Love how you said “ready to see them fly”, thats exactly how it feels although I will definitly miss having her around so much. Love to see more of your content, its both recognizable and soothing to watch.

[@dinarubin4828]

Yay Jamie. So exciting that all 3 are in school now. I remember watching the twins as babies in high chairs at the other house 🥲 I’m with you though. It’s so exciting. My first grandchild started kinder today. ♥️

[@JanalynnM]

I just brought my baby to her first year of college. Everyone said I would cry. I didn’t because I know she will be and do amazing at school and living life in a dorm. Kids are amazing and watching them grow is the best thing in my life. Your girls look so precious on the first day of school. Thank you for sharing.

[@autumnadams941]

OMG!! Kindergarten and 4th grade!! Time has zipped by I've been watching since the twins were a year old!! I too got to experience my nephews first day of school (Pre-K and kindergarten) for the first time and I was so emotional!!! I hope the girls have a wonderful and safe school year.

[@JamiesJourney]

It's bittersweet for sure ❤❤❤

[@shannonjones8165]

Love it when you organize/clean and stock your fridge; such encouragement! Always happy to see how you are encouraging the girls to eat more healthy, but yet still letting them have the kid meals and some sweets as well 💕💕 Thanks for all you do Jamie!

[@Clevast]

The decluttering and organizing tips were spot on, and I especially loved the freezer meal prep segment-such a time-saver for busy mornings. 🥰

[@aprilknerr4443]

I enjoy the quick show of products. Gives me ideas and lets me see how they work for real life.

[@amyembich518]

It’s was nice to see your little helper with u and hope they a great first day of school have a great week

[@jenerick826]

Happy Back to school! Your girls are getting so big I've been watching for I think three years now. I have a senior in high school and a senior in college! Enjoy those early years!!

[@karigrader9451]

Jamie, Back to school is a mix of emotions at least for me. I have one left in school. Which we haven't started yet.The years fly by so quickly. Having a lunch packing station makes things so much easier. Freezing bread items does save on waste. Also keeping bagels and English muffins that would be used in the refrigerator helps keep them from molding. Very cute that you have a helper. Meal planning and prepping are key not only for budgeting but also saves time and less chance of wasting. Having the option to have groceries delivered is a plus and will save time. Totally understand the mixed emotions of wanting to keep your kids at home and also see them grow and spread their wings. Thanks for sharing!

[@JamiesJourney]

Thank you for all of those tips! And I'm sure you can totally relate to the mix of emotions. I hope you guys have a great school year!❤

[@aprilkearby6963]

😊❤😊

[@kathydawson5958]

If you keep your bread, bagels etc in the freezer and use as needed you won’t have to through moldy bread away. Just a tip I’ve found helps.

[@JamiesJourney]

Great tip - thank you!

[@Alwaysherethere]

I do that too🙂

[@danealmckenzie305]

I buy 3pc of bread from Costco put them in the freezer and use as needed and they taste fresh every time

[@MyNicknash]

Praying for an awesome school year for the girls. Continued blessings Jamie ❤

[@JamiesJourney]

Thank you so much! ❤

[@kristinmarshall1500]

I love that you show the products on screen! It’s extremely helpful! I’m always curious and interested in the products used! Thank you for showing us. I’ve bought a few products you’ve used and I love them!

[@elenakasko764]

Jamie, I would like to thank you for showing the products that you are using. It helps a lot for me. This is one of the reasons why I keep watching your videos.

[@JamiesJourney]

Aw thank you! I really appreciate hearing that! ❤

[@Rusticroostranch]

I am so glad you posted your flooring choices. I was literally looking for flooring colors like this one this morning because I made a huge mistake of going too dark in our last house. We have honey colored pine flooring and do not care for it at all. Thank you!

[@CocoKiss2011]

Man I love Jamie. She’s the best!!! At so many different things. She always inspires me through everything 🎉👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

[@stephaniealaia769]

I agree that a fully stocked fridge is the best feeling. Hope the girls have a great year at school! Watched ya while I did some laundry 🧺 thanks for the motivation Jamie! Unfortunately I can’t get that moment with the surgery I had a partial hysterectomy it breaks my heart now but I see that I get to work with kids and be the best aunt I can be and love seeing my neice’s and nephews strive I have my oldest niece going back to her 3rd year of college and then my youngest nephew who’s 4 going into kindergarten it’s crazy. You and Mike are really amazing parents I wanted to let you know that! Hope you have a great week! 💜😊

[@JamiesJourney]

You are the sweetest ❤

[@annyg1757]

You were one of the first KZbinrs with cleaning I watched. Although I have gotten away from watching all the time, I came back recently to you. You were the only KZbinr that made me interested enough to try Thrive Market.😉. Love this video; cleaning products used, technique shown, all while not feeling great. You never disappoint. Thank you for all the information you share & your kind personality.🥰. Hope Avery feels better soon.

[@rachelgarbe3932]

If I ever have a child, I will be so excited for back to school prep. I just love organizing in any way! My best friend growing up and I used to love organizing our binders and stuff before school started. One yr, I was obsessed w Avril Lavigne and printed out pics of her to put in the plastic cover of each binder with the subject under it :)

[@JamiesJourney]

Love that! Throw back to Avril Lavigne, too!! ❤

[@jenniferm3386]

Great video today!!! I have an eighth grader and a fifth grader!! Both in their last year at their current schools! It is so crazy how fast it has gone. I still remember the first day of kindergarten for my first🥹🥹😭😭

[@JamiesJourney]

Wow! I know, it will go by fast. Have to enjoy every moment! ❤

[@sheilaopatchen2267]

Hi Jamie! Watching some of your videos while I work…today is a work from home day. Trying to motivate myself for what all I need to get done this weekend. About the stainless steel cleaner…I use Weimans too. That one is my favorite. I have found though that I need to wipe after with just a dry paper towel to make sure it doesn’t look greasy, especially on the fridge.

[@christineroberts2374]

[@MrsRavenclaw]

I hope your girls have/had a great first day of school. My son, who started school this past Monday, asked for me to put this for your two kindergarteners ," Just be you, if you have questions do not be afraid to ask them. How else will you learn. Always be up for learning something new." He was bullied in 1st grade, at his last school, and he stands up for himself and the others. He knows to no matter what that he should go to the nearest trusted adult, be that a teacher, school staff, or even one of the older students if need be. Oh, he also wanted me to add, " Do not feel you need to change to fit in. If they are your true friends, they will like you for who you are." He is always helping the younger students if they need it.

[@JamiesJourney]

Oh my goodness, how sweet!! I will share this with them ❤

Love all things, especially kitchen things and hauls lol. I find groceries that other people get so exciting idk, but what was that all purpose vinegar spray that's so neat? And your veggie bags!! Have an amazing day Jamie 😊

[@JamiesJourney]

I got both from Thrive market! The vinegar spray is one of my favorites for cleaning the fridge. It’s also just a great cleaner! It’s called Aunt Fannie’s cleaning vinegar spray. The compostable veggie bags are just ziplock but compostable! 😊 I got those from Thrive market, but you can find similar ones from the Ziploc brand, I believe
