Nesting Part II

Last time I was pregnant I nested at the last minute. we put in new wood floors about 3 weeks before cohen was due.
This pregnancy, I started nesting early:
- Around 4 months: I decided to repaint cohens room, and his bathroom. i wanted something more neutral and grown up. my mom painted a tree in the corner. done.
- 5-7 months: I got OBSessed with de-cluttering. when your house is 965 sqft it is important to understand the importance of decluttering and organization. just ask ikea, they'll tell you.
after MANY trips to goodwill - done.
- 7 months: spruce up decor: Make new mirror in cohen's room, new rug, new curtains, rearrange pictures, etc. done.
- 8 months: organize kitchen. clean out cupboards and drawers. repaint cupboards. dust top of refrigerator. Wash & Organize baby clothes. done.
- 9 months: repaint living room...which turned into repaint kitchen, hallway, living room, AND bedroom; BEFORE andy gets home from Big Bear. done.

whew. that was a lot of work. so glad i did it, and so glad it's DONE.
