Getting My Nest On

My to do list seems to keep growing. In my little pregnancy app, my weekly activity a few weeks back was packing my hospital bag. So, last week, I decided it was time to start.

Toiletries seemed like a good place to start… BUT, upon beginning, I discovered that all of the drawers and cabinets in our master bath were a mess! Clearly the only reasonable thing to do was purge (severely) and clean out every single drawer and cabinet… To the point of emptying and cleaning the drawer itself.

Three hours later, my bathroom drawers and cabinets look great… I have yet to pack my bag.

Last night I decided to keep it going. It was time to tackle our “Charlie Cabinet” in the kitchen. This is a tiny cabinet that’s just packed with plastic cups, bottles, etc. 

Without going into crazy detail, let’s just say that I spent a good 4-5 hours cleaning out all of my kitchen cabinets, doing major purges and switching around the organization. And yes, this included the entire pantry. 

Needless to say, this morning is a stop for coffee morning because this crazy momma was up until after midnight. 

But dang that kitchen looks good. 

Next tasks?

Linen closet and the guest bedroom!

The Tiny Tot Loves Her Baseball

This weekend, we took C to her first baseball game. These two short videos pretty much sum up her love and excitement for the game…


I was really proud… She “did baseball” perfectly. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, she was eating! Grandma brought her some Annie’s shells and cheese (she took down at least half a box), then she ate a full peach, and apple slices. After that, she got a free fudge bar from the stadium (kid’s day!).

She lasted 5.5 innings, which amounted to nearly 3 hours! And really, to say she “lasted” isn’t fair… She enjoyed 5.5 innings.

When we got home (at 430 – yikes!), we put her directly in bed, where she proceeded to pass out until we woke her around 615. The girl was tired and worn out, but all in all, it was a great day.

She loved the fireworks and would literally hand us her food so she could clap. She got so excited every time the crowd roared. It was great!
