Nesting

I don't know if everyone is aware of this term - It's basically a period of time at the end of a woman's pregnancy where she gets the overwhelming urge to clean and organize in order to prepare for the baby. Some people get it so bad they wake up at 3am and start scrubbing bathroom walls. I kid you not. I'm not there yet, but I'm either nesting, or I just didn't want Charlotte and Laura to see how we really live!

On Friday we had our prenatal and i played hookie at work and went shopping after dropping T.J. off at work. I picked up an Arm's Reach Co-Sleeper (see pic - it'll go up against the bed when DomerBaby arrives), then went to Babies'R'Us and got the rest of the stuff off the registry, then to Joann's for fabric for wipes (done sewing them! Yey! See pic!), then to Target and Goodwill for labor day supplies. Then I went and got the oil changed in the car before picking T.J. up. Did lots of baby laundry on Friday night while T.J. napped (ha!) and put together a box of all my labor stuff so it's ready for the big day!

Saturday I woke up early (early for me... like 8:30am), boiled diapers to prep them, did more diaper prepping laundry, cleaned the kitchen, dining room, bedroom, T.J. cleaned up the living room and office, then I organized all the papers in there. That took all day!

Sunday I dropped T.J. off at his friend's house so they could go to golf, I went to Trader Joe's, Publix, then to my friend Laura's to borrow "giant" maternity clothes (she is short like me, so she had the same belly-too-large issues). Then up to dollar store and pet store (more labor supplies), Michael's, and TJ Maxx for baby stuff. Then to Whole Foods to drop recycling and get some more groceries. Got home, made dinner in time for super bowl, and baked some homemade oatmeal chocolate chip cookies!

Whew! That was some weekend!
