my ENERGY. It has been fantastic! The past few months have been VERY difficult for me. It felt so completely lazy, even though I knew it was just being pregnant. I had energy throughout my entire pregnancy with Bryson, so it took me by surprise when this pregnancy turned out so differently.
One night I took it upon myself to clean out Bryson’s closet. It was a mess and had bags of things to donate, things that shouldn’t have been there at all, and other miscellaneous stuff. I was able to take nine bags and one box to Goodwill after all was said and done.
It may still look messy to some of you, but I can now find every single thing in it with not problems. Our diaper stockpile is finally being built back up too! We should have enough diapers for about six months. I went through his toy chest and took out his “baby” toys. I packed them up, so I can wash and clean them all before Baby #2 arrives. I added a few new toys that I picked up with Bryson was staying with his Gangan. He will be excited when he gets home & sees them.
This chest was actually my Pawpaw’s. I had intended on painting it, but it fits in with the rustic theme of Bryson’s room and works so well as a toy box. As you can tell, he LOVES trucks. I bought a few new (to us) trucks this week. I bought the Tonka Chuck Talking Truck for $8 and it is in like new condition. I have wanted one of those for Bryson for months, but I couldn’t justify $30 on a talking truck.
I still have one closet to clean out, but I need to do it when Bryson isn’t around. We will be going out of town this weekend for a family reunion, so it will have to wait another week. I hope everyone has a great weekend! We are going to visit family that we haven’t saw in years, some that I haven’t met in the six years hubs & I have been together.
>That's awesome Whitney..good for you! I clean when my kids are NOT around too…my oldest goes crazy when I try and get rid of anything
