My house is clean!

Anyone else taking advantage of this gorgeous weather we are having? The past two days, we have accomplished so much around the house.

Jade took Reyna out this morning. She played, while he raked our entire yard, cleaned our flower beds and started getting our garden ready. While they were outside, I did the following:

-vaccumed entire house
-mopped kitchen floor
-completed 5 loads of laundry. washed,dried and put away
-scoured bathroom
-dusted
-cleaned linen closet
-weeded out linens and put together a huge black garbage bag to take to our work's Linen Closet
-made a nice size pile for St. Vincent.
-organized my desk
-put several things aside to take upstairs for storage

We have both accomplished a TON. Reyna is taking a nap right now and I am enjoying the downtime. I stopped working around the house. I had a few braxton hicks and figured my body was telling me enough was enough. I need to shower still b/c we are heading to my parents for dinner. My brother is home on Spring Break and my Uncle is coming from Detroit. Every year, my mom makes corn beef, cabbage & potatoes for St. Patrick's Day. It's the only time we ever eat it. Do you eat it? If so, just for St. Patrick's Day or on a normal basis?

Usually on Sunday's, I start to dread the week, but today feels a little different. Can you tell I am feeling better pregnancy wise? Finally! Tonight, Reyna is staying @ my parents. I have to be at a breakfast for work @ 7 am. It's supposed to be nice this week, so that might be the reason for a good mood, too. This upcoming weekend, Reyna gets to go stay with Auntie Kristin & Uncle Trav. I have been talking to her about it for a couple of weeks now. I ask her if she wants to go visit them and she say's, "yes." Then, she talks about going sliding. The last time we saw Kristin was at Chelsea Treehouse. Reyna wanted nothing to do with anyone else, except Kristin. Poor Kristin had to do all the work.

The plan is to keep it a low key week. Besides work, I am going to try and tackle a couple more of our major closets in the house. The main one being Reyna's. It's bad. Very, very bad. I'll keep you posted with progress.

HOLY CRAP GIRL! Reading that just made me tired! Although, I like to do all of my cleaning and such all at once than a little every night. That way it doesn't feel like you are always cleaning.
