I am totally in the nesting phase this week. I knew exactly when it hit and yesterday I spent all day cleaning the house, which I never do. I’m trying to keep myself busy so I don’t start moving things out of our office, which will soon be the nursery. I keep on saying we wont make it into the nursery until the summer, and I need to hold to it. If we moved the office out right now anyways all we would have is an empty room that I would probably just go sit in the middle of it and dream of getting everything we need for Baby Schmoyer.

Which that brings out the anxious part of my nesting. . . We got a “surprise/joke” of a baby shower from our friends before we even knew we were pregnant since we got out of debt and were moving on to our next baby step with Dave Ramsey, they thought it’d be funny to celebrate that baby step with a few baby items. I check our baby registries almost every day just to look at what all we’ll hopefully be getting, but no one has even spoken about doing a baby shower for Baby Schmoyer. I know we still have 5 months or 22 weeks, or 152 days, which ever way you want to look at it, but it makes me nervous that we’re trying to save up our emergency fund and then on top of that we’ll have to pay medical bills when Baby gets here and what ever else Baby Schmoyer will need that we forget, or find out we need later, ’cause I have no clue what all exactly we need to take care of a baby.

I’m glad that cleaning the house is keeping me occupied for now. I actually enjoyed going through everything in our huge main floor closet. It was nice to throw stuff away, and put some stuff up on freecycle.org. Someone today is already picking up 2 old computers that we don’t need and a bag of Chinese art prints. I love giving stuff away that we don’t need, and am probably going to be going through more stuff today and see what else I can put up on freecycle.org. If you want to see what all I registered for you can go to BabiesRUS and Target online to see what few and fun stuff we have on there. I’m really eager for all the snow to leave so people will start having garage sales so I can go hunting and see what I can find. Hopefully people will start putting baby stuff up on freecycle.org that I can get. There was a lot of stuff posted before I got pregnant and I didn’t want to take any of it not knowing how long it would take us to get prego.
