Bump Day. 35 weeks down.

Today I started my last week at work, and boy am I glad it’s finally arrived. I honestly cannot believe it was 23 weeks ago that I told work we were pregnant and it’s going to be so surreal come the end of the week. No more Sunday evening blues for me.

This week, the nesting has gone into overdrive. I spent the day yesterday sorting the living room and our bedroom. Hanging the remaining pictures (myself, I might add – check out the handyman skills), cleaning window frames, washing curtains and packing away the clothes that B has had sitting on the chest for about 3 weeks. I have never been a cleaning fanatic, but I have to say I loved every minute. What strange urges this pregnancy malarkey can bring.

Tonight I’m thinking it’s the turn of the bathroom, and tomorrow the kitchen. During which time B will have finished painting the nursery and cleaned the carpet, so Wednesday I can start moving everything in. I’m also going to start the rather massive task of washing all baby-related items and can’t wait to see those teeny things hanging from the clothes horse. A glimpse of things to come…
