[@wendylawton8274]

I'm so glad to see you include the children in the decluttering. One of the best skills a child can learn is sorting and classifying-- clean-up and organization is the perfect activity to build these skills.

[@user-hb7so5vu8r]

I did not have to do this because my children did not have that many! I’m in my 80s and am surprised at how much children have these days.❤

[@moodreadingwithsarah7731]

I haven’t seen your hair down in a while and it’s gorgeous. 😍 Thanks for creating calming and peaceful content. You’re such a safe space on the internet.

[@varshaanand1498]

Yeah she looks so beautiful in open hair 😍

[@FancyThatwithCandice]

One thing I like to do is keep any toy with tiny pieces (like puzzles) completely out of reach! It has eliminated A TON of mess!!!

[@parkerdawn747]

This was the 1st time I actually got my kids involved in decluttering, and I got rid of so much more. The kids actually told me about a lot more toys they didn't want anymore. It was soo nice.

[@jessicahaynie9426]

Have you considered donating the toys to a local children's hospital or have the kids gift their old toys to kids in need? My mom had us do that, and it really helped us to recognize how blessed we were. It also made it easier for us to let the toys go. 🧸 😊

[@OneofTheMostHigh]

She says in the video she donates.

[@jessicahaynie9426]

@OneofTheMostHigh She didn't mention anything about a specific place she donates, though, so I just thought I would suggest it just in case she hadn't ever considered it before. I wasn't criticizing in any way. I hope it didn't come off that way. That wasn't my intention.

[@kittysweets2226]

Hospitals don't usually take used toys

[@OneofTheMostHigh]

@@jessicahaynie9426 not at all. 🫶🏾

[@braria9855]

My favourite part of decluttering videos is to see exactly what got donated out by people. It helps me reconsider my own item if I have the same. For example Sarah Therese decluttered the spare plastic layers from some of her spice jars and it took me another couple of weeks after seeing her do that to do the same with mine that I've been holding on for - literally for no reason for years. On the other hand my son didn't get a lot of use from the silver round metallic thing from the lovevery kit, so I was planning on donating that one, but it surprised me, that you kept it. Maybe other kids would appreciate it more so it might be worth keeping for another baby. In general toy/activity reviews would be great and hopefully easy content for you. Especially from a family who has multiple kids and experience with the toys from different personalities. Bonus points for reviewing some more popular or expensive items, that are always a thing to consider twice before purchasing ! :) I think this could be an easy backup video whenever you're at a loss. Bonus points for the kids doing it in a "haul" kind of way as Eloise used to do shopping with you

[@GoodWitchKnits]

Wow, THANK YOU for acknowledging the mental load toy organization and rotation takes. It's so worth it, but monthly it takes a whole day of lots of standing, staring, thinking and rearranging to make a good toy rotation work. You never hear or see that online.

[@foofookachoo1136]

Yes! Decluttering anything in one’s house takes a lot of pulling things out, deciding what catagory it’s going in, and putting rest back where it goes, or maybe going into a new spot or room, putting things for donation in a specific container, then sometime physically taking donated items to thrift store, and lastly putting the items u don’t want for home or donation, into the trash! Decluttering is a long process, and I always thought that this is one of these hidden jobs that some people don’t realize has to be done, along with everything else a wife and mother have to do!

[@reallygoodatfolding]

If you put rubber bands around each of the puzzles boxes, you can store them upright without worrying the lids might come open!

[@braria9855]

My favourite part of decluttering videos is to see exactly what got donated out by people. It helps me reconsider my own item if I have the same. For example Sarah Therese decluttered the spare plastic layers with holes from the spice jars she didn't use the layer with and it took me another couple of weeks after seeing her do that to do the same with mine. My son didn't get a lot of use from the silver round mettalic with wooden handle thing from the lovevery kit, so I will probably donate that one, but it surprised me, that you kept it. Maybe other kids would appreciate it more so it might be worth keeping for another baby. If you have the footage, I'd love a video of all the objects, even if it is 3 mins long. :) I also love seeing exactly what ended up where and don't mind seeing the standing around and trying different things. Love seeing how the home evolves bit by bit, including how the things - inevitably - get moved. My guess for example is that eventually you will find a different system for those puzzles from the chest (that area seems to have been a difficult one for quite some time) and something like pretend play clothes will end up there. We shall see.

[@annaovseichik391]

It’s so easy to recover dry playdoh, not sure why everyone throws it out instead. Just add some water, close the lid and let it sit. If there was too much water, let it dry up a bit. 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@laurenweinberger7385]

I LOVE decluttering and organizing videos!!! Such good motivation for me to start organizing my stuff again:) thanks!!!

[@ktrayan1]

My daughter is 5 and I have started to bring out a group of toys (usually ones I know she isn’t very interested in) and say “okay, at least half of these need to be donated” and she’s pretty good about it since she gets to choose. We also don’t have as much room as you so she understand that her birthday month and Christmas month are both times we have to purge to make room for the new, which definitely motivates her.

[@feleciajackson4441]

I think the toys are more important to the parents than children. If those toys have not been played with in a while, then they are not important. Children don't even need toys for stimulation or creativity.

[@rebekkahfrench4071]

My thoughts exactly

[@katrinalau4137]

I have been decluttering as well in anticipation of Christmas and the new year. I included my daughter and she was RUTHLESS! Hahah. I really love how she doesn’t hold too much value onto materialistic things and is willing to part with things no longer serves her. It’s the best! Not sure how my other kids will be in the future since they’re still toddlers, but hopefully we will continue in the same direction. Loved this video! 🥰

[@candiceanderson1132]

Your cleaning, organizing, decluttering videos are such a blessing to me. Thank you! ❤

[@capturedbyannamarie]

We definitely do not have the space for toy rotation. I would probably forget about it as well. I am definitely and out of sight out of mind person. I just keep a basket of toys and that’s it, but our older 3 have outgrown toys. So they only play with legos.

[@baldwinhomeandkiddos3913]

Great video! I do miss your vlogs so much though! I always felt so inspired as a mom of three to see you tackle all that you do so gracefully in each season you walked through. I felt God using you as a guide to show people the true meaning of Christianity through parenting and homemaking. I hope you’ll consider coming back to that in the future when the time is right for you ❤

[@GoldieGlam2]

Nice, when ever you Declutter or clean the atmosphere change and you feel inner peace and calm so nice sharing❤❤

[@Mlemarie100]

We do a goodbye day. So once I pick the toys we’re getting rid of they get a day to play with them to say goodbye! Makes it easier.

[@alexismaewaterman]

Omg the doll bottle with rocks I couldn’t help but think of Theo’s rock gift for Christmas and how excited he’ll be for it! So motivating there is nothing like a fresh declutter and clean! I also love the idea that you include them and let them know what you’re getting rid of and why, we’ll definitely be doing this from now on!

[@lunab695]

I don’t know anyone with as many baskets as you!!! I love how unique they all are!

[@puckjansson3375]

I also stack the games and puzzles on their side like that but I keep a rubberband around each one to try to prevent chaos 😅

[@isabellalacy9901]

Ahh Delilah!! I love this so much and I’m so obsessed with your content. You are such an inspiration to me and being a mom to your kids is so inspiring. Ilysm and I hope you’re having an amazing day 💕

[@lisapun20]

Yes, thank you for showing the time that goes into this. ❤️I like to do the same thing through our home. Loved your dresses, which were good indicators to see it was a different day by each dress.

[@tarnielaska-wolfe7812]

Loved this so much! Was great to see all the stages of the process! You captured it really well! Have a wonderful clutter freee Christmas ❤❤

[@ally33799]

I just did a before Christmas declutter but this helped me realize some areas I may go back to declutter. I love how you include your kids in the declutter. I'm trying to include my daughter but she is 2 and not quite understanding the process yet.

[@TheMennomilist]

I am glad you were able to go through everything and donate a bunch. I enjoyed watching the entire video. It was good!

[@Oyimtalkingtoyou]

This was such a great thorough video! Thankyou. Love seeing you organise I feel like my stuff is closing in on me. Sometimes I just need to tidy . That's mostly my problem

[@oceanmcewen]

i like the kids’ toothbrushes hanging inside the door of the vanity. good idea.

[@anniecostello2969]

Hi Delilah! Thanks for the inspo...makes sense to declutter before finding homes for the holiday gifts. Love your background music; very paceful. I like peaceful.

[@GabriellePanetti]

Love these types of videos. I definitely need to do the same to prepare for the New Year

[@adrianal3al]

My kinda gal ❤ I love to declutter and organize as well especially before bdays and Christmas

[@carolynoquinn4573]

Love your dresses, Delilah!

[@varshaanand1498]

Love your videos, want to see more of William. I just love him❤

[@emerie44]

I would love to see a tutorial on how you style your hair in that gorgeous bun 😍 obsessed with your style

[@ancient_kitten]

I really like your furnishing style and how you organize it :)

[@izaskungarcia5684]

Love these vídeos sooooo much, they are so relaxing and motivating! How is the bathroom’ reno going? Have a lovely day!

[@cassiepatrick581]

I love that dress on you! So classy Delilah!

[@binttahmet]

I love your videos so much. Makes me so excited to be a mother one day ❤

[@notinzane]

I just got up mid video to declutter and organize our storage room while my baby napped, motivated by you! Thank you for this 💌

[@MonikaVighovaCZ]

OH!! That old phone in the last clip!!!! I always loved your aesthetic and even though my house doesn't and never will look like yours I just always come back to you to pretend I live there with you - I hope this doesn't sound creepy . Have a wonderful Christmas. Sending you a lots of love all the way from the Czech Republic. 🇨🇿

[@shellbyl8798]

Twins! Taking a break from my decluttering to watch this video.

[@AllThingsLydia]

The sideways puzzle organising method works well for us 🙂🙌

[@isabellmayer9466]

I could watch this for hours ❤

[@hannahbentson9374]

Clicked on this so fast! I’m in declutter mode too before all the Christmas things come into the house.

[@chrystineeld9218]

This is just my personal opinion from my personal experience, but I am so grateful that we have a small collection of toys and absolutely no books. We love reading but I get them all from the library and children don’t need as many toys as we think. My children have Legos, trains, and marble tracks and that is it! Other than that we have a small homeschool closet with craft supplies and the rest of our playing and enjoyment come from real life! Going out, cooking, swinging, baking, playing with each other instead of toys

[@minnamae25]

I really need to do this. It's finding time and motivation that's holding me back. 🤦‍♀️

[@carolynoquinn4573]

You did a fabulous job.

[@Erinnestatic]

I love your basement area!

[@baileywilliams955]

I LIVE FOR THESE VIDEOS

[@storytimewithelisa3607]

I have a baby of the same age of Annabeth and I wonder: where is she whilst you do all of this? I am having a hard time getting him out of the wrap 😅

[@MyWifeUsesMyAccount]

I watch your videos and almost grieve a little. You are the mother that I always dreamt of myself being. Before kids I always saw myself being a certain type of mom and having a certain type of household and unfortunately that isn’t my reality. It makes my heart so sad because I don’t know that I will ever get to that place. Between the state of my marriage and how severely childbearing affected my mental health…*sigh* I’m clinging as best I can to the hope that God will help me to get there soon because my babies are growing so fast and I hate that they have to experience this unhealthy version of me at such developmentally fundamental ages😭 * end of my little vent session. Thank you for reading this.

[@tracywillis8460]

You did good work. Well done.

[@carolynoquinn4573]

At least you have the basement for storage.

[@clarimelvlakancic72]

I agree with you when you say it’s harder to declutter as your kids get older. The other day I thought I had donated a baby alive my 3y/o was asking me for and my stomach dropped. Fortunately we found her. I would never want to get rid of something my kids aren’t ready to part with just because I feel like they’re done with it.

[@rebeccaramos3246]

We stack our boardgames sideways like you did the puzzles in the chest...we put velcro straps on them to keep the lids closed so when the children take them out everythinf doesnt come flying out

[@jrose37]

Ive been wondering if you'd be putting some more bedrooms in the basement soon!

[@tracynguyen4201]

Im in love with dresses you wear on this video❤ I wonder the prices are purchase in USA dollars?

[@yutingyang4825]

Ohhh you have the Lovevery music set! Do you like it? Considering buying too😁

[@camilojames1]

Where is the white dress from? Gorgeous🤩

[@keelanndelbosque8333]

If you are worried about puzzles/games spilling out when you pull them out of the chest, definitely recommend putting them in reusable bags inside the box! Just as a fail safe so the pieces don't mix together.

[@foofookachoo1136]

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Delilah arranged the puzzles on their sides, which is a good idea, but very small hands might not be able to pull the boxes up and out, without the lids becoming partially open, spilling some of the contents. So THAT is a good idea to keep parts in a bag!!

[@karoosten232]

I have a hard time parting with pretty toys. Any extra advice??

[@natalieelskamp9677]

Are your dresses thrifted? If not, do you have links? I love them and you look gorgeous in them!

[@rachelverbracken8751]

Delilah- do you have your play gym (in the living room) linked anywhere?

[@ktrayan1]

Do you nurse in the white linen dress by just pulling one sleeve down?

[@sofapop653]

My daughter has the same baby bottle and she fills it with random things as well. 😅

[@kaylawalden4599]

Ooh, do you like that Gathre play mat? I'm guessing that's the Gathre play mat, at least. I've been eyeing it for our new play room downstairs!

[@bitsnpieces-3107]

It is, and she's been talking about it a few times in the past. Seems to be a staple in her home.. ;-)

[@irishswedishwoman]

Where is your white dress from?

[@Sw.lyd317]

Where is the slide climbing thing from?!!?! Can someone link it??

[@LoeppkysLife]

It was actually made by Zach! Alicia On behalf of Delilah

[@noellehedman5412]

Fun

[@teresac1060]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@zosiachajny91]

Wow! Your kids are so well behaved. I have only one (6mo) and she is refusing to play on her own longer than 5 minutes. It's difficult for me to eat my breakfast as she is protesting that I am not with her on the floor. I often end up doing things with one hand and holding her in the other one... More advanced taskas have to wait for my husband to get back from work. Is it just me? Am I doing something wrong? Should I just let her cry when I am cooking/cleaning? Has anyone had that problem but found a solution? Pls help!

[@Scassolina-rv2xj]

You are not alone with that. In exceptional cases I let my child cry while eating, but he was always right next to me. It was a hard time and I lost too much weight. A babycarrier helped me get along around the house, later I included my child and we did a lot of things together. I wish you all the best ❤

[@LoeppkysLife]

I was in your shoes 6 years ago! As they get older and we’ve had more children it’s become much, much easier. Now they have little friends to play with and over time they’ve learned the beauty of independent play!

[@zosiachajny91]

Thank you ladies for your reassurance and sympathy. Nontheless, I am still impressed how much Delilah is able to accomplish whilst taking care of her little one. She is setting a standard I am hoping to meet one day..😅 if my kid allows it 😜

[@joiedevivre894]

My child just turned 8 now just able to set her down and she plays independently as of a few days ago. I was in your shoes up until they point and it was really stressful. It gets easier over time for sure! Goes without saying the moments happen so quickly that it will all pass before you know it

[@chavelybourgeois707]

I miss the vlogs…😢

[@Laureacbk]

[@home_edventure]

Do you still have your cat?

[@ameliaduden488]

They rehomed him a few years ago. All of there traveling and children were stressing him out so he is in a less stressful loving home now . She has a video on it somewhere

[@hziebart]

Sorry, but random baskets everywhere still feels quite cluttered to my eye… 🥴

[@mariahlamb2983]

Just as I've been struggling to get up and find the motivation to clean, Loeppkys to the rescue 🤍
