Nesting much?

I am officially in my 3rd trimester, and officially nesting. How can I tell, you ask? That one is easy (as anyone who has nested knows!)

This week I went through all the boys' clothes, pulling out too small ones, packing up most of the summer ones and rearranged their drawers. I went through all of Genesis's clothes, packed up summer stuff, pulled out winter stuff, washed it all and put it in the newly vacated drawers in the boys' dressers.

Yesterday I took every book and toy off the bookshelf and scrubbed the whole thing down with a magic eraser, then took the diaper drawers (one of those plastic, rolling 3 drawer things from walmart), emptied them all, packed up what I never use, scrubbed the whole thing with my magic eraser and put it all back together.

Today I found it necessary to rearrange the dining room, which actually just means pulling the table a few feet in one direction and moving some chairs, though I'm not sure it'll stay that way. Then I mopped the kitchen floor on my hands and knees, which I actually do every week, but this time I got all the corners really really good and washed down the baseboards, then cleared off what is supposed to be the boys' craft table that has been piled with stuff for weeks now.

Tomorrow the dining room is getting a good scrub down, along with the washer and dryer area and I'm thinking I need to go down to DH's Grandma's to look for that missing box of winter coats and hats that I know is there.

On the list for next week are mine and kids' room, hopefully getting Genesis moved out of our room and cleaning out the boys' closet, which is a complete disaster. Yup, I'm nesting.

I can't believe it's the 3rd trimester already!! Yowzers! Sounds like you definitely are nesting--no wonder you haven't blogged much lately.

Take care!
