Okay, it may sound crazy but my nesting instincts totally kicked in today! After I got DS down to sleep I just started cleaning! I also did a bunch of organizing earlier! In all honesty I think it has something to do with watching "Jon & Kate Plus 8" on TLC- those shows always inspire me- ya know lots of kids and these super moms who keep their homes spotless and everything is so organized! I aspire to be like them and I only have 1 (and a 1/2)!

Whos with me!?

Maybe to make you feel better, I bet these "zillions of kids" moms have helpers come over and clean (like church members, family members, etc.)

I only aspire to keeping my home to a point where I don't feel like everything smells, although my preg. nose kicked in yesterday--joy of joys.

Okay, that sounds bad. Hopefully, you know what I mean :o

I wish the nesting instinct would kick in. Currently, all my instincts say, "whatever you do, don't get off the couch." :lol My house is suffering for it.

Yep, I'm in the same boat! The weird thing is I didn't have any psycho cleaning/organizing urges with my dd. I didn't do any over-the-top cleaning until the day before she was born...and one of the reasons I did that was to try and get labor moving:lol She still doesn't have a "theme" in her room, just some random stuff on the walls, no matching furniture - it's all cute, but definitely eclectic

I spent the entire weekend cleaning house and planning where I want the new baby's furniture to go, how I want to decorate the room, I re-arranged the living room, organized my kitchen, etc. My husband put his foot down and stopped the madness when I got the baby wipes and started going through the house wiping down the baseboards!:dizzy: I've spent the last couple hours at work making a list of what I want to do when I get home...:o

I desperately need the nesting bug to bite me in the @$$.
My house is a mess.
Partly because I have one round of canning left (so jars and canning crap is littered around the kitchen) and partly because the first trimester exhaustion is just killing me. I barely have enough energy to go make lunch for the kids - and they *have* to be fed.

I am starting to get like that. I don't have energy to do it right now but I sure am thinking about it lots. Does that count? :lol Really I do feel the need to organize and get my house in tip top shape. It is 7 months away but it does go fast!

I have the urge just not the energy, it was like the second i took the pee test i started to feel the "morning" sickness and the low energy! maybe its mental. I am going to go mental if i dont start folding laundry, because i wont have a single place to sit in my livingroom. Clothes piled high, dishes needing washed and a whole house that needs decluttered and organized because i have to figure out how to fit 5 kids into a 3 bedroom house!!

Me! Me! Me!

I'm like why am I nesting already???? There's all this organizing I want to do. I already got on my hands and knees and scrubbed my bathtub that needed to be cleaned for the past 2 months *blushes*. What made me finally do it when I'm bloated and tired? It has to be the nesting. I also organized my daughters dresser and my closet. My next thing is to organize the blanket chest and empty out the small dresser we have, try to find a place for the stuff inside of it and hope thats enough room for the baby's clothes!
