Nesting



Matt has been cleaning for me all day. He has done the things I just can't do as easy anymore due to my large baby bump. Mostly cleaning base boards, scrubbing the tub, those chores that involve bending. I have to say that is the best gift a husband can give, well that and the fact that he brings me Sonic Diet Cokes without me asking. He even helped me get caught up on laundry, which by the way I think is the devil . Laundry is like a bad habit, it never stops nagging. So I am one happy mamma tonight. Thank you Matt!!!! I love you.

As I type I am so enjoying my clean house which will look like a storm has come through by 9:00 am tomorrow, but I do think the clutter of small children is a beautiful thing. We know one day we won't have that clutter when they are grown and so we want to enjoy it.

I have decluttered (not sure if this is a word) since the day we moved into this house because of it's VERY small size, so how do we have so much stuff?????? I can't even begin to count the number of bags I take to Providence House and Goodwill ALL the time. If anyone who reads this blog has issues with holding onto things, call me, I LOVE LOVE LOVE getting rid of things I don't use. I think I've even got Matt throwing out things he hasn't used in a while. My new rule.....if it hasn't been used in 1 year, I don't have room for it. Maybe when we move I'll change it to two years, I don't know. I watch shows about people who can't throw things away and I am confused.

Okay, I am NESTING.
