So, here I am THREE days till I am set to be induced to give birth to my first daughter. I have two lovely boys already, the oldest is three and the youngest is 20 months old. Whether they care to acknowledge it or not their world is about to change forever. But, that is a different subject all together and no where near the craziness that I call my current state.
I am not a messy person, and I am not a clutter bug. But, I am definitely not a neat person. Before having kids I had order to my methods of keeping a house clean. Now that I have kids, there is no order just mass chaos to keeping even the living room floor mess free. So of course, I am facing the challenge right now of having a multitude of chores done before Sunday night and having them stay done. The reason I call this a challenge mainly is because I want my house orderly for my friend who is going to be watching my two lovely boys. So that maybe, just maybe it will be easy for her to keep it orderly so that when we come home with new baby, nothing will have to be done very much cleaning wise before visitors come to meet our new little girl.
I have already accomplished shopping for this upcoming event. The fridge and pantry are fully stocked and ready to go with items to keep the boys full and satisfied. There is even enough to give our "kid wrangler" a variety to chose from. I have a schedule typed up for her with general guides of what should and should not be done with the boys. She has kept them before but for never this long, so I'm nervous she is going to be too nice to them. Meaning mainly that she may let them take advantage of her... my boys can be a bit to handle when you aren't stern with them.
So over all, this weekend is going to be a mass organization of my two bedroom one bath apartment, yes it is small for a family of five but we make it work. I'm hoping to say by Sunday night that this was a success... but we shall see.
