Pros and Cons...

...OF NESTING

PRO
  1. A clean house
  2. Finally being able to see the floors in all rooms!
  3. Clean bathroom (sort of. Steve usually really cleans the bathroom) Now there's no toilet paper rolls all over the bath room
  4. Clean clothes
  5. Clean sheets
  6. Clean dishes
  7. Everything is organized and in it's place
  8. No more papers from 5 years ago and other junk like that
  9. Not going to be embarrassed if someone comes over unexpectedly 
  10. And number 10.... CONTRACTIONS!!!!!!!!!!!

CON
  1. Backaches
  2. Overheating and sweating like a pig. Call before you come over so you don't have smell me. I'll take a shower
  3. My big belly getting in the way of everything
  4. Finding out just how little storage space we really have
  5. Getting mad at the kids for making a mess or getting in the way
  6. Not being able to sleep at night because of the backaches
  7. Not being able to take Ibuprofen for the backaches. 4 Tylenol just doesn't seem to work as well.
  8. Realizing that this nesting period is going to end and my house will slowly but surely revert to be a disaster.
  9. Making several trips to the garbage dumpster and feeling like a dork for all the trash we have produced.
  10. Finding out we still have a lot to do for the baby's room and we're running out of time...and money.

Aside from the backaches and sore feet, I really like the nesting stage! It's so fun to get ready for baby. :)
