Nesting...

I always thought people were making things up when they said a woman will begin nesting towards the end of the pregnancy getting things ready for the baby. Well it is true. However, the fact we are scheduled to move four days prior to my due date has thrown a kink in my nesting plans. No nursery, no crib set-up, no folding and hanging of baby clothes. Yesterday, some of my nesting instinct was fulfilled. We spent the day packing, organizing, de-junking, installing the car seat base and washing our first loads of baby laundry.


This was me folding the small amount of laundry I allowed myself to do prior to moving (I don't want to do it all again you know). The fortress of boxes is pretty much everything in our apartment except our clothes and kitchen stuff. (Please note the awesome orange car seat in the background)

By the end of the day we were quite exhausted...but it is done. I think we have enough ready now this baby can debut when he is ready. 17 days left.

If only we had a name for him....
