Today was the last time that we would be able to sleep in as a family of 2...well 3 including Zozo. It was our last saturday sleeping in, our last saturday without company, or responsibilities. It definitely didn't hit us until the afternoon/evening.
We spent the day spring cleaning the house aka nesting. We started off the morning with a casual breakfast then we got into the nitty gritty.
We deep cleaned the whole house in anticipation of my mother's arrival and of course Henry's. It's funny because I wasn't expecting Kev to get so hands on with the cleaning as he did and I was very happy about it! He cleaned the bathroom like a pro - better than any guy I've ever seen and the kitchen. I moved every piece of furniture and vacuumed like crazy. Vacuuming by the way is my VICE! We own a Dyson and it is orgasmic! I friggin love that thing. I'm totally the kind of girl who gets turned on by top of the line home items. Dyson vacuums, All-Clad pots and pans, commercial grade blenders... you get the idea :)
ANYwho... we tagged teamed the cleaning and vacuumed out our couch of all crumbs, dog hair, dirt etc. We inherited our couches from my parents and during the summer my mother had a binge on sunflower seeds. She had a certain spot she ALWAYS sat and while we were cleaning we got to her spot...we sucked up a lot of sunflower seeds....thanks mom! LOL It was one of those perfect married couple saturdays spent together doing something productive. While we cleaned we watched it snow and snow and snow outside and it was just mmm mmm cozy!
I made us yummy sandwiches for lunch and cleaned more and more. We headed out later on in the afternoon to change my oil and clean out my car of dog hair. That was a bad idea. Zoey is deathly afraid of vacuums and this vacuum was outside. So as Pappa Clouse vacuumed the civic out Zoey and I stood in the snow blizzard freezing our nipples off. The things we do to save a buck or two is sometimes ridic. Im pretty sure Kev was glad we went to get my oil changed rather than go to his office parking lot and him change it himself.
I talked to my momma on the phone today and she was happy and excited and cheerful as she packed away for 2 full weeks with the House of Clouse! She is so ready to be here and be 'grandma g' to Kev, myself, zozo and Henry! She lives to spoil others and no one is more appreciative of this than us! Kev is super excited about her stay because she plans on making Kev 3 meals a day every day for 2 weeks straight. Something his tiny body needs! Im excited to have someone to hang out with while I wait for baby. She is gonna force me to walk walk walk until I go into labor which Im looking forward too! My dad will be here next friday-monday the weekend that I will be induced if he doesn't come naturally. My father is SO excited that he will get to see Henry's arrival and hold the lil nugget before he has to jet back to KS.
Kev and I wrapped up the night by making/eating more beef stew and relaxing on the couch. My body HURTS terribly after over doing it with the cleaning spree today. I will sleep amazing tonight (hopefully). I am going to work on my cover letter tonight and hopefully send off some applications for after maternity leave.
Excited for tomorrows adventures to pick up 'grandma g' and watch the super bowl! Im sure I will have tons to talk about tomorrow night! For now...I am going to collapse into a deep sleep coma!
Ciao for now
