Nesting?

I've been so anxious to get all my blinds clean before the baby arrives. I've never cared so much about cleaning blinds before until now. I had intended to get all sets of blinds done in one evening on my own but after tackling 2 sets in my bathtub I decided it was harder work than it seemed. Not only did I clean my kitchen blinds but in the process scrubbed my bathroom floor and bathtub. What exhausting work! So my blessed husband came home from work one evening knowing how much it meant to me to have all the blinds clean and volunteered to finish them for me. We turned it into a little family event with the kids helping and it ended up being so much funner than doing it on my own leaning over a bathtub. I have 2 sets still to go and the dreaded vertical blinds but I'm determined to accomplish my goal and tackle everything else on my "urgent to do before baby comes" list. Does anyone want to come over and help me clean cobwebs off the ceiling? :)

Can't say I've ever enjoyed cleaning the blinds. Lately I have been looking the other way, trying not to notice the dust on them! I wonder how long I can pretend they are clean? :c) Maybe you should come out here and help me with mine!

Oh so cool. Love your pictures. You will love looking back on these photos at all the crazy cleaning you were doing before the baby came. I did the same thing, we always want everything to be just right, especially when we bring baby home. I love getting ready for baby!

Well, so far no baby. I've had contractions all day about 10 min. apart but they're not getting any stronger or closer together so we're still waiting. I was dilated 4 cm. a week ago so I'm hoping very soon but we'll see. Thanks for thinking of me.

I love this background...pinks and browns are my fav....I hate cleaning blinds. I did the same thing though right before I had Jadon. When we moved into this house, I took great joy into ripping all those blinds down and hauling them to the dump so that i don't have those to clean anymore:)....
