Anyone else nesting?

DH and I are adopting and bring our baby home at the end of next week. Im currently in nesting overdrive!

Have taken the tree and decs down (usually leave for another week but getting really anxious!). This morning I've massively decluttered, thrown lots out and out things up in the loft, have rearranged the furniture to make room for the playpen and toybox, have thoroughly dusted scrubbed and mopped every spare inch of downstairs living space!

Back into work tomorrow for one last day and then baby shower at the weekend...which means I've got to now find the energy to do a deep clean upstairs too because there's no more time to do it!

How very exciting! Enjoy making all ready for baby’s arrival, and don’t forget to get some rest too, you’ll need it “in your bones” as my nanny used to say Smile.

We start intros on Wednesday! DH and I are both working tomorrow, baby shower on Saturday (whilst DH and best friends DH relocate to the pub), taking DSS out to spend his birthday and Christmas money on Sunday, then NYE plans... I will spend Monday sleeping off a hangover whilst DH is at work, which leaves Tuesday as our last day just the two of us Shock I plan to get as much housework done before then as possible so we can stay in bed all day Grin

Me me! I'm nesting! Due on Jan 9th. My sister took the kids out to the science museum today so I had a whole day to myself and spent it... deep cleaning and decluttering the kitchen! I don't think I actually got rid of that much but have had a reshuffle and chucked anything that had 2017 on the Best Before.

It took 4 hours and now I am now aching all over, oops!

OP, best of luck for next week! It's good to keep busy so the anticipation doesn't knaw away at you! And it sounds like you are doing that Smile
