It's always funny to me when people ask if I've been "nesting" as I near the end of the pregnancy. I'm not a bird! However, I've been trying really hard to keep up with all of the cleaning and laundry around here. I don't want to come home from a hospital to a mess after all! Well, today Joey and I were in the basement. I decided to organize all of his toys into their own bins. (all of the Rubbermaid's from moving come in handy!) The basement is spotless! We have bins for each type of block, the stuffed animals, musical instruments, sports stuff, misc. toys, and then a small box for all of the animals and people that go to the different toys. I even organized all of the magnets into a box, the markers and crayons into one, and the play dough into another. Needless to say...the basement is spotless! (for now). I think Joey will like it though, he can actually find toys instead of everything being jumbled into some boxes. I guess part of the problem is my crazy-organized side anyway!
I've also been scheming ideas for decorating and painting around here as soon as I'm able. There's a lot to do...but we won't get into it all right now.
Tonight I also ordered some prints for the baby's room. The room has 10' ceilings with large windows. The walls are painted tan and there is a red accent wall. The bed and changing table are against the red and the red chair from Joey's old room is opposite the wall. In case you haven't seen it, this is the dust ruffle on the bed along with a plain yellow sheet.
I already have these wall hangings in the room on a tan wall.
I ordered these prints in 6" x 12" to go above the crib...

This print is a 10" x 10" and will probably go above the chair in the corner.
I will take pictures of the room once I get these pictures in. My organized/crazy side would want them in the room before the baby comes....but since I just ordered them tonight I'm hoping that the baby gets here before they do!
I have another appointment on Thursday but other than that, not a whole lot has been going on on the baby front. Only 9 days left until the due date! I keep hoping that I'll be early, then I think "Whoa, only 9 days and then there's another baby in the house!" Things are going to change, that's for sure!
