Spring Cleaning

Hope everyone's weekend went well. Mine was slow and really uneventful. Yesterday Hannah and I lounged around in our PJ's. I'm not sleeping well at night at all and it's partly Abel being gone and my body unused to sleeping alone and it's partly the itching issue. Dirty PUPP! LoL. So we watched a few movies and played a few games and I tidied a few things up and just enjoyed the slow Saturday.
Today was even better though. I was low on sleep again and yet had a huge burst of energy. I have gone through and gotten rid of and put away about 6 or 7 boxes worth of stuff. Not to mention the 3 boxes of baby clothes of Hannah's that I have been holding onto. It was kind of hard to do but it's so good to get rid of things I won't be using. I have three boxes that now need sent out, one to my mom for Miss Victoria, Auntie's little turtle. A box to my step sister and her baby girl on teh way, Miss Daisy. And about two or three boxes waiting to be sent out to my sister in law, Miss Megan for her baby on the way. She's only 9 or 10 weeks along but I'm banking on a baby girl. Veronica and Abel both had girls for their first and so I'm planning on Megan being that way too, haha.
I pulled out the crib and put it in Nacio's room along with a few gender nuetral clothes that I had used with Hannah and now can get by using on Nacio too. I also found a bunch of blankets and towels and other stuff so I was able to get those into the room too. It's really exciting to put stuff into his room. Tomorrow I plan on going through the remaining boxes in the storage room which total about 6 maybe. And then I've got about 6 boxes in Nacio's room that need put into the storage room and then once Abel gets home, we can put the bed in Nacio's room in the storage room too and be done. We talked about plans tonight and Abel isn't going to set up anything until we get the new carpet in and get the painting done. Paint first then carpet. And we have to wait until it's warm enough to have the windows and doors open so we can air out the paint. I'm really excited!
So it was a fulfilling day for me and makes me super excited and happy to be getting this part done. I'm halfway done with my pregnancy as of Thursday! Yaay! Tomorrow I get to clear off my computer desk and get it ready for a sewing machine! Yay! And once Abel gets his paycheck I get to buy plane tickets!! California here I come!! LoL. Aww yah....
Anyways, everything is going great, no more contractions or cramping. Praise God! Nacio is pretty mellow which is weird. Hannah at this stage was moving around all the time, hiccuping hardcore everyday and just no break. Nacio is really calm. I have him on a schedule, I know when he should start moving around and not much makes him kick or jab me yet. And no hiccups. As hyper and active as Hannah is, I have a feeling Nacio will be my mellow kid. I was always hearing about how if you're first kid was amazingly good, you're second would be a terror and vice versa. It's true, LoL. At least for now....
And my great news is that Friday Abel comes home! I'm super excited! Abel got to go to the Mall Of America with a buddy of his. They got to go race Nascar go karts or something like that and check out the Lego exhibits and just check out the mall. Abel was amazed and I told him when he goes back in another 9 weeks (he has to stay for two more weeks then) Hannah and I are going along one weekend and we are going to check out the mall together. It's been a few years since I have been there and I wanna see what expansions they've done. But Abel is bored and wanting to be home and we miss him so totally much! I can't wait for him to get home!!
And that about does it for my share of the news. I hope and pray all is well with everyone out there in blog land. I'm thankful for all of you my friends! Lots of love to you and I'll update and blog stalk you all another time!! LoL.

GeEez... Don't over do cleaning things one in one day. You may take it one at time.

Hauling those trashes maybe difficult and tiring to do but it is necessary to get rid of these. You may hire some trash hauling services that are reliable to do the hauling job for you.
