Updated 10:12am

Trying to keep to it! Today i woke up at 8am instead of 7am which is suppose to be my wake up time according to my schedule but since I'm so close to baby coming I'm letting myself sleep as long as the girls will let me. Got to rest up for the big production!

Anyways i didn’t miss much. Just started off on the 8am duties so I'm not rushing or feel behind. Actually i feel ahead a tad because i already started laundry and that isn’t on the list till the 9am duties.

I’m excited about this weeks flight plan (HERE) One big thing on my list of things to clean before baby comes is the laundry room, because i know the midwives will be down there doing laundry and right now it’s a dungeon! Well this weeks flight plan is focused on the ‘Main Bathroom and Laundry Room’. PERFECT! The main bathroom won’t be that big a deal cause i keep it pretty clean so i will probably focus most my energy on the laundry room. Yay yay!

Also another YAY: I love having breakfast muffins made and frozen. In the morning i can just pull out a couple and stick them in the oven to warm and breakfast is done! I have such a hard time eating breakfast so this has really helped me!

9:30am Check In:

• In Bathroom:
  • Wiped off counter, toilet, walls, baseboards, drawer and cabinet fronts and light switch cover.

10am Check In:

• In Laundry Room/Basement:
  • Went through my laundry room ‘supply’ shelf’, cleared out the garbage and wiped it down and then organized it.
  • Cleared the garbage off the dryer
  • Wiped down the dryer and washer tops and fronts. It’s probably the cleanest it’s ever been >_<
  • Then i went through some stuff that has been piled up close to the laundry room. I boxed up in separate boxes: dog items, gardening items and outdoor toys. Threw away a lot of things! Put all the tools i found in a section so Hubs can put it up later.
  • That is only a small section of the basement. Still a ton to do down there! The basement is very unorganized and dirty :(

Now it’s time do some crafts with the girls :)

My 2yr did the crown picture frame on the left

My 3yr did the crown on the right

They decided where to put things, no help to me. Always surprises me how even they do things!

2pm Check In:

• In Laundry Room/Basement:
  • Rebooted the laundry
  • Cleaned up all my hanger mess
  • Swept the floor
  • Folded all the clothes and hung what needed it. That was 5-6 clothes baskets full of clothes.
  • Then re-filled baskets with folded cloths so Hubs later can bring them up. I’m not suppose to hall that much weight up stairs. 

Now it’s suppose to be relax, do what i want time. Think i might have a snack, drink some water. Might sew after that…. who knows!

So far i am really happy with my progress today. Laundry room looks great! I have all the laundry done but a couple blankets and whatever is hiding up in the Hubs closet. Not sure if i will get back down stairs today or just hold off till tomorrow. I still have a lot of regular house cleaning to do up here, dishes, floors, clutter to put away. But for now it’s time to take a break for the day!

After a little break I:

• In Laundry Room/Basement:
  • Rebooted the laundry
  • Started sweeping up the floors in the rest of the basement
  • Cleared a spot for the outdoor furniture
  • Carried the wicked patio furniture over to the back corner of the basement
  • Put all the big outdoor toys and the boxes of outdoor toys in the back corner as well.
  • Sorted through some more stuff and trashed a lot.
  • Swept quite a bit.

Ugh it’s still a mess but it’s a lot better. Made a lot of headway. I totally over did it though!

I managed to sit down for a little bit more and passed out for maybe 20min when Bob called that he was on his way home. At first he wanted me to take Anabel to her gymnastics class tonight but after he saw how bad i was feeling and how i was hurting he took her instead. That gave me some time to soak in a hot tub and relax a little bit…. a little bit i said. The whole time in there i was having some uncomfortable braxton hicks. But it was nice to soak anyways.

Right now I'm in the middle of making spinach pasta and crescent rolls for dinner. It will be done shortly so I'm going to sign off for the evening.

On to another busy day tomorrow probably :)
