Week 24 - Nesting

No, we aren't referring to the bird's nest crazy that's Kiersten's hair. That's just the result of several weeks of quarantine aligned with 24 weeks of pregnancy. We have begun a pretty serious nesting stage. This week, Kiersten loaded and unloaded the dishwasher 3 times in one day. She voluntarily vacuums and dusts the house, something our home in Adrian sorely needs by now, but we still remain at the Hitchingham Hostel. The other residents have grown accustomed to her cleaning frenzies and pitch in as needed to keep her crazy to a minimum.

The nesting would be much better used in Adrian, as a nursery is completely non-existent at the moment. Don't worry, Kiersten has been pinteresting for months, and we started a registry a while ago, but nothing had been purchased when this week began. On Friday, we finally got back to the house to spend some quality time preparing for baby's arrival. We cleaned out the 2nd bedroom and made way in the living room for Brawny to be re-homed. There is certainly plenty to be done, still, but we've at least begun the process. We placed a pickup order for Lowe's so that we can start getting things done, next week, and we picked out some paint chips. The picture doesn't really show the colors, but that was an adventure in it of itself. You would not believe how different the paint chips are from the samples on the website. They look white in the photo, below - we assure you, we do not intend to paint the room white!
