NESTING

So there is this thing that pregnant women have been talking about for well forever. It is this funny little word called nesting. I just thought hmm OK sounds like a need to get some spring cleaning done, but amped up a bit. HAHA yeah I was wrong. Something just sort of kicks in and you have this NEED, URGE and POD-PERSON tendency to get everything done around the house and NOW.

The feeling was reaving up earlier this week at work and then hit full on crazy mode on Friday. Lets just say I went to not one or two, but four different craft stores this weekend to buy and make things for our soon to be little one's room. It started with this mobile that I saw on both Etsy and Pinterest, my other obsessions that I really wanted. However, the price was a bit crazy at $63 not including shipping. Not willing to spend that much and hoping I could pull it off I decided to run around like a crazy person buying things and maybe spending close to 4.5 hours making the mobile, but only costing me $10.  It actually looks so much cuter in person with better lighting. But I was proud of my accomplishment and plan to take better pics when I have her room done more.  I also made a cute little lamp shade covering and bought fleece to make her a blanket too, I didn't get to making the blanket. I could only handle sitting on the floor for so long.

But ultimately this odd urge just took over to get everything in its place in her room. But that is sort of hard to do when I don't even have any furniture in there yet. Well, for the most part. We did find the exact same changing table we registered for at Once Upon a Child for half the price SCORE so I scooped that up on Sunday!! And I am hoping to nab a Glider too for $60 which to me is a steal. I am all about a good deal!!!

Thankfully with the help of my wonderful hubby we already tackled most of the house a month ago and cleaned out closets and had a big garage sale to make space. So glad that that part is done, phew. Hopefully my nesting urge will calm down a bit or at least I learn how to curb the crazy for Bryan's sanity. :)
