week 70

I am pooped! Eric and I have gone non-stop all weekend. We decided to tackle the nursery project this weekend which meant moving my office out of the room, cleaning the room, finding another spot for the desk and all office related items, painting, and setting up nursery stuff. Like I say, pooped. I really thought it would take us half a day to do this. I mean, move a desk and paint a couple walls, not long right? I was totally wrong. We started Saturday morning and didn't finish until 9pm Sunday evening. We did stop to eat and run some errands (related to the project), sleep Saturday night of course, and hit church, but that was it. So here it is...

Office room before...

Nursery room after...

Room cleaned out and Eric vacuuming...

Shots of Eric painting the two blue stripes on the wall. I really thought I got a picture of both stripes before we put the furniture in but I guess I didn't. Dangit.

 
The other wall with bassinett...

And our new office space. The desk was an 'L' shape so we had to remove one side. Despite the small space, I think it turned out great. We went and purchased a nice file cabinet since it needs to be out where everyone can see it. The key now is to keep the office space clean and non-cluttered.

 
I feel like Eric and I have de-cluttered this loft so many times in 18 months. We did it again this weekend. While Eric painted the room, I cleaned out cupboards in the kitchen and drawers in the bathroom. It felt great to gain some room. Then I tackled the closet in what was the office. We have two bags of paperwork to be shredded, made haul after haul to the dumpster, and need to make a trip to Goodwill. But we are done (minus hanging pictures) and it feels so good.

Cause when you see this picture of me at 32 weeks, I really don't think I have 8 weeks left in me. Give me 4-5 and I'll be just fine.
