Getting so close to the end! I'm so ready for this baby to be out. I went on Craig's List today to look for another bassinet since I'm going to be downstairs a lot as well when I'm with my grandmother and what not. I found one right in town that the people were just trying to get rid of to clear out space. $15. The picture of it looked good, they said there was nothing wrong with it. Can't hurt.
Cleaning is just about finished. I'm one of those people that will keep stuff I know I don't need, just for the sake of keeping it. I need an outside source to come in and say, "NO YOU CAN'T HAVE THIS" and chuck it for me. My mother is very good at things like that. Seriously though, there isn't that much that needs to go. I don't really know if any of it needs to go. I just need to have somewhere to put it.
The painting is almost 100% done. I did a few doors today, and will continue to paint doors as often as possible. Mike is going to paint the baseboards on Thursday night after work. I normally would do it myself, since the painting doesn't bother me, but the being on the floor bending over like that for an extended period of time does bother me. It's hilarious watching me attempt to get up from a sitting position on the floor. I almost wiped out when I tried to get out of Lauren's new blow-up pool on the back deck yesterday.
Speaking of the blow-up pool, it is very nice to sit in, but I think next time, I need to be in the pool without the kids. I love my nephews, but I get too worried about getting trampled when they're in there with me.
Alex is very funny with me. He feels my belly all the time now waiting for Madison to move around. He also keeps telling me he's going to teach me how to take care of babies. He also likes to ask Lauren where the baby comes out.
Good stuff. Now it's time to sleep despite Madison kicking the crap out of me from all directions. It's extremely uncomfortable today. Only a few more weeks...
Hi Lindsey,
ReplyDeleteI know the last few weeks are hard waiting...it's uncomfortable, and I use to feel very restless at times. At least you have your nephews around and your family! We are all so very excited too, we can't wait to meet Madison. It's so great you have the blog because we can keep up with things, and after Madison is here you can also go back and read things and remember, also once she arrives too! :) Talk to you soon, Love, Mom Stanisci
