Re: Randoms Week of May 2

  • I've been cleaning all day, and freaked out a little knowing once the baby is here, my house will never be clean again.
  • @kennelchick we may as well enjoy cleaning while we still can ! 

    I just feel completely clueless about how to take care of a newborn. I work with kids but they are usually at least a year old and babies just leave me feeling kind of scared and clueless . I need a book to prepare or something .

    Same here @mskeenan. I'm actually considering now to deliver my baby in the Netherlands, so I'm 100% sure I have my mother and sister close by that done it before. 

    Oh how I want to clean @kennelchick, just no energy yet. 
    You better enjoy it while you can. And after the baby is there, it's not important anymore so you won't miss it. Too much other exciting things are happening :smile:

    I just scheduled a cleaning lady to come in next week!  A really good deep clean will be so nice to come home to.  That'll be my motivation to have everything picked up and organized, then not have to breathe in chemicals and scrub!

  • @mcclorn What a great idea! I'm definitely going to have to do that closer to my due date. We're putting hardwood down in our 3 bedrooms. Our house is so cluttered right now since we're still clearing out the to-be nursery, which was our craft room and office (hoping to be done by the end of the weekend), got our nursery furniture in (no point in putting it in the nursery only to move it out in a few weeks), and we have the wood flooring airing out/acclimating in our living room. We don't have a big house and will soon slowly move all items and furniture out of the bedrooms and into the living room to have the hardwood put down in early June. It's going to driving me crazy! Once they're done, we'll have a little less than 2 months until my due date to "move" back into the bedrooms, set up the nursery, and clean. I'm a bit overwhelmed and slightly regretting the decision to change out the flooring. I'm sure it'll all work out, but until then, all I see are boxes and items all over our living room and as the days pass, it'll only be more and more cluttered.

    That's definitely a ton of work but hardwood floors will be totally worth it!  It will be such an accomplishment when all said and done!  You'll get there!  :)

  • We put in hardwood floors in our bedroom last year and while it was a lot of work they look beautiful. When I was a little girl I never knew hardwood floors could make me so happy....
