I wish I could say this was me, but nope not yesterday. I had just talked to my mother in law about how Mr.C was nesting more than I was. Since he wanted to paint and then there is me. Not really worried since I assume he'll be here on his induction date, I had no urge to do anything to really get ready besides getting some decor up in his room thats about it.
Then the "nesting" began. I bought a jug of bleach and a spray bottle and went to town. I cleaned the kitchen and the bathrooms with bleach, then I sprayed the carpets down with rug cleaner and vacuumed. I scrubbed the tub, I scrubbed under the kitchen sink (literally, I scrubbed the sink basin that no one sees) I categorized my pantry. I started making lists of things I need to go out and buy in bulk because lets face it, once life settles and Chris goes back to work, and my mom and MIL leave and the help is gone. I am not going to want to go to Costco alone with a toddler and an infant. But at least the carts are actually big enough. unlike normal stores that give you the "shopping cart for one"
I have a "murphy's law of childbirth" outlook. I know that as soon as everything is nice and finished, cleaned and polished, I basically know he'll stay in forever. I started nesting with Carson at 26 weeks, everything was finished and ready to go. I sat, on my hands for another 14 weeks getting anxious and crazy hoping he would pop out. He had to be forcibly removed. He was totally worth it. But at least this time. When everything is "finished" and ready. I'll probably be fairly close to full term, so I won't be sitting around getting anxious and then feeling like an asshole because I want my baby here, but he'd be pre-term. (I never wanted C to actually come out pre-term. I just wanted him here happy and healthy)
So at least, for now. I sit here, planning out freezer meals (I am working on a freezer meals post that will be coming soon!) I'm having a sprinkle sometime in the next few weeks! That will be super fun. I'm really looking forward to my sprinkle.
Luckily my lazy self doesn't feel like nesting today though. =)
