Day 136...The Great Purge

After getting so many things for Christmas, my husband and I figured it would be a good idea to go through all our closets and drawers and purge everything. It's our pre-spring cleaning I suppose. But oh my goodness I had no idea how much crap we had stuffed away in our house! Our donation pile of clothes and random things we don't use is huge, and our trash pile is almost bigger! It's gross! But now that we're going to get rid of it all, it's going to feel so much better. The trick is trying to not accumulate more afterwards. Although, I suppose that's what actual spring cleaning will be for.

It makes me wonder how it'll be if and when I hit the nesting phase of pregnancy. I keep thinking of how we'll set up the nursery and how I'll rearrange the house. I'm already such a neat-freak, I'll probably end up driving my husband crazy with all my obsessive cleaning.

Anyway, the great purge has begun and hopefully will be finished by tomorrow. I also started reading my new book about 'what to expect before expecting' and so far, my husband and I seem to be on the right track. The next step will be for me to schedule an appointment with a doctor and get a basic check up as well as get advice on starting prenatal vitamins. Which reminds me, I also bought folic acid supplements to start taking tomorrow. With the books and vitamins...this is all starting to feel so very real. I'm excited and terrified all in one! :)

Pickle's room...the final frontier.
