Pregnancy Tendency: Nesting. Yikes.

So, lately I've had this insane urge to get going on the nursery. I hear this is normal. Steven thinks I'm nuts. I've been quite busy though!

The problem is that I've had so many projects going on that I move from project to project without completing anything. Until now, finally!

I'm getting somewhere on my quilt.



Steven bought this adorable mobile for the crib...but I decided to pick it apart and redo the material. The original material was too boyish! After 8 1/2 hours of reconstruction, I finished it! So here's the finished product.




We went to walmart and bought the materials to make a jungle lamp...here's how it turned out. The picture is ruddy, though. Sorry!



And then I decided that our apartment could use a few things. We made a laundry sorter out of pvc pipe. I'm going to make the bags out of white sheets...one of the things on my to do list. We "installed" a piece of plexiglass in front of the TV stand so the babies can't get in it (those I'm baby sitting and my own future baby). I decided the house could use some house plants, too, and this time I won't kill them! I learned what I did wrong last time!

We put the leftover potting "dirt" in a bin and put it in Kaia's closet. Hopefully she won't get into it.




More to come! I won't be posting pictures of the room until it's finished! But it's coming along QUITE NICELY!!!

Nesting is an interesting instinct isn't it? When I was about 7 1/2 months with Jake I couldn't fall asleep one night and at about 3 am got up and started cleaning out our closet and dressers. I woke Brian up as I piled all the hanging clothes on him in bed...
