Nesting???????

Or something like that, lol. I have had way to much energy the last few days and just can not sit still. Yesterday, I went through the bins and found all of Autumn's clothes and Craig washed it all. He also washed all of the other laundry and I folded everything and the girls put there stuff away. I put Craig, mine and Zander's away. Autumns are still in a basket for me to organize and put away. I cleaned the girls closet yesterday and figured out a new way to organize there books and socks and under ware. I wanted to be able to use the little plastic dresser in the girls room for Autumns clothes. There closet looks so much better!! I then ventured into Zander's room to put something away and his room was a disaster so I made him come help me clean it up. So we cleaned it and put everything away and I hung up all his laundry and reorganized his drawers a little.


Today I had Craig grab me out another bin because I was missing a dress for Autumn and I wanted to make sure I had it somewhere. I found it and then helped him put some odds and ends laying in the garage away and organized a few of the other bins. Finished folding a few more loads of laundry Craig did and put them all away. I got Autumn's cradle ready, put her bedding in it and just put a few other things in there places and ironed my nursing cover. Then Alyvia and I ventured to Walmart to get a few things we needed (valentines candy to finish our project for school), I know bad but I just had to get out of the house. Then we stopped at Mark, Joy and Kelly's house to drop something off for Kelly. We got to meet Kelly's boyfriend Anthony and sat a talked for awhile. Then we came home, Alyvia, Zander and I finished up the girls school valentines and now we are just realizing and washing clothes. I just keep thinking of the things I should be doing. Put Autumn's clothes away and finish washing the stained things. Wash up her car seat and I need to still pack a bag for the hospital. Trying to remember what I need for the hospital and I really should make a list of things I still need to pick up for her and myself. But i kind of want to wait till after my shower next Saturday. I am hoping and praying she stays in till next Tuesday the 9th, so my mom will be here!!

Well, here are a few pictures. The finished valentine project and my belly at 36 weeks and 4 days....

Dr. appointment

Well, I went to the Dr yesterday and they hooked me to the monitor as usual. I was on there for only a few minutes when Autumn got the hiccups, it was actually the second time she has had the hiccups while I was hooked to the monitor. Oh it was so cute!!! Zander thought it was cool to here her with the hiccups. I so can not wait to meet her!!!! The Dr said I can go off my meds and bed rest is 4 days which will be Monday, yeah MONDAY will be my last day on bed rest and meds!!! I am excited and a little nervous at the same time. I don't want Autumn to come before the 8Th so my mom can be here. I asked my Dr if he was going to check to see what position she was in and so he did an ultrasound. She was so adorable but would not let us see her little face very well. He tried to get a good 3D picture but it did not work very well. She measured at about 6lbs 5oz and she was head down and engaged (meaning in the birth canal).... Zander was such a good boy the whole time and just sat and talked, looked at his books and read to me.

I painted my own toes can you believe it, lol. I painted them on Tuesday, I was going to have Alyssa do it but I thought I would at least try myself. My belly was really in the way but they look pretty good!!

I actually went to the store yesterday, I know bad Cristi!! Well, I drank a glass of milk and not sure but I think there was worms in it! SO SO NASTY!!!!! I seriously don't know if I will be able to drink milk for awhile. They exchanged it and apologized over and over! Makes me feel sick just thinking about it! EWWWWW

I got all of the newborn clothes and the new stuff I got for gifts recently washed and put away. Today I am planning on going through all of the bins from the girls of 0-3 and Zander's to see what she can wear so I can get it all washed up. Craig got the bins out for me before he left for work. I need to also in the next week get a bag packed for the hospital. I hope I can remember everything I need.

Here are a couple pictures from the last few days!

My toes painted, lol!!

Zander in his outfit he picked to go to the Dr. He even got himself dressed!

Only 1 weeks left.....

On bed rest that is....... I have an appointment Thursday, I am hoping my Dr will do an ultrasound.

I made thank you cards today (31 to be exact) for my shower and for anyone else who has helped out. It was fun but very time consuming!!! I am trying to decide if I should put the glitter on the feet like I did in the close up picture. What do you think???

Today's project....

Today I made and finished what I could for the girls Valentines goody bags. After watching a video from mypinkstamper.com, she gave me a great idea to made these for the girls to give for valentines day instead of buy ugly valentines day card. I just need to get candy, fill the bags and attach them to the toppers. It was a super easy project and fun but it took me all day because I did not have all of the same color paper. But here are 2 pictures of them.
