DH is a nesting fool!

You would think he's the pregnant one! I came home a few weeks ago and he had moved most of the stuff out of our second bedroom, taken apart the desks in that room and rearranged the living room to make room for the office stuff. Then he started cleaning like a maniac... which I will NEVER complain about. I came home from work last week and he had torn out an ad for the Stokke Tripp Trapp highchair, which I LOVE. Well, tonight, he found it on sale at allbeebaby and ordered the stinking thing.

Just two years ago I couldn't get him to so much as LOOK at entree choices for our wedding. Now that I'm knocked up, he's a maniac! Weird but completely adorable.

I think I can safely go on the record stating that I officially hate Call of Duty Black Ops and am now seriously regretting getting him a PS3 for Christmas last year.

DH is much the same- he's cleaning, cooking, asking me every 5 minutes if he can get me anything, and overall just being hilarious. We aren't even out of our first tri and he has set up the crib, inventoried what we have for baby stuff, and insisted on starting our baby registry so that we are prepared. They can be so funny sometimes!

DH keeps saying "We have plenty of time" Although he has sat down and picked out the baby furniture i wanted to take full advantage of the black friday deals but he said no way. Haha.

Mine seems to be in about the middle. He is cooking, cleaning and GASP doing laundry more than ever and also constantly inquiring about how I feel (which can get annoying but I try to be nice) but as far as baby stuff he tends to remind me that we have plenty of time and to not stress out about it. I think with house hunting come january / february and having a REAL space for the baby, he will get more into that stuff, but for now I think he's being practical slowing me down because we barely have a corner of a closet to store things for baby

That's so cute!  MH is sort of nesting also, but it's in the form of heavy duty home improvement projects.  We've been wanting to scrape the popcorn ceiling and just do a faint texture, and add crown molding.  The guy upstairs recently put in hardwood floors, which has made things a lot louder in our unit.

In the last week and a half, MH has researched options online for acoustical ceilings.  He ripped out the bedroom ceiling and put a drop ceiling in with new drywall.  Today he's doing the texture and we bought crown molding, which I painted today.  He's really busting his butt to get it done as fast as possible.  He moved the bed into the living room so we've been sleeping there for a week.  He seriously is never this motivated to complete projects.  He really wants to get all the ceilings done before the baby gets here.

That is so cute!!

My DH is not doing much around our condo, but all of a sudden, he really wants to buy a house in the suburbs (which is not in the budget right now - will be a few more years.)  

After years of saying he wanted to stay in the city forever, now he doesn't want me to have to walk the dog in the city with a baby by myself (he travels a LOT.)  Very sweet!  Just not practical.  

He is NOT ready to look at any baby "stuff" yet though!  Though, honestly, I'm not either.
