NESTING Overtime

I have been on a cleaning frenzy! The closer I get to the date of birth, the more stressed out I get. I am trying very hard to stop stressing. I need this baby to stay put til towards the end of June. lol These last 2 weeks I have cleaned a LOT! I washed 14 panels of drapes and ironed them. Yep, 14. 0_0 I have drapes everywhere and they were pretty dirty. I cleaned all my windows and blinds. I cleaned every single framed picture in my house (those were nasty). I cleaned every door. I had hubby clean all the ceiling fans and light fixtures - he wouldn't let me do it. By then I thought I was done w the extra "spring cleaning" stuff. All I had left was the normal house chores, dusting, sweeping, mopping, which I do on a weekly basis. BUT last night at around 8 or so I decided to take my whole fridge apart and wash each shelf and drawer one by one. I threw away a BUNCH of stuff, some of which were expired. Now my fridge is all nice and clean and organized. :) I felt such a sense of accomplishment! The only "extra" thing that's left to do is move some furniture to sweep and mop under them. BUT I need to wait on the hubby for that. We are pretty ready. I still have some laundry to do for the baby but a lot of it has been done. We are getting anxious and excited to be bringing our little baby home. I think I just am ready to be home w all my boys. :)

Wow, that's a lot of work. If you weren't preggers, I'd hire you.

Better rest a little so you don't pop too early.

My goodness, you have accomplished a lot. Is that what they call nesting??? You shouldn't have to do a thing after the little one arrives. Just enjoy the baby.
