Bursts of Nesting

Nesting has once again commenced at our place. Since it was Saturday and I didn't have to work I woke up with Sweet Pea and had breakfast. Well, it was more like she had breakfast and I was cleaning the kitchen while making popovers. I managed to get the kitchen clean, towels that have been on the dryer for a week put away, and the floor swept. Yay for a mostly clean kitchen!!

After Mr. Man woke up and Sweet Pea went for her morning nap we started to tackle our bedroom. It has been a mess since we moved in. My goal today was to get our room mostly clean so there would be room to set up the playard and get rid of a lot of stuff. There was much success! The closet got cleaned out, book shelves rearranged and dusted, the playard is all set up, a few more things need to get cleared out and we can vacuum the floor!! Amazing I know.

Goal #2 is to get the kids room all set up. I found a deal on a dresser at Target this week and we, meaning mostly Mr. Man due to my pregnant state of being, put it together. I have some of Little Man's clothes already in it ready to go. Now I just need to sort though baby clothes again and put away things that are too small, and organize all of the boy clothes we have. It's amazing how much clothing kids have. Once the clothes are in order it will be time to figure out a diaper system for 2.

Now if I can just find a mattress pad that will fit in the playard I think we will be all set for this little guy to get here. I'm quite ready for him to be in the world and out of me. I'm quite uncomfortable and there are still 4-5 weeks to go. I just keep telling myself I can make it, I can make it.
