33 Weeks Pregnant – Keeping Busy


We’ve been busy this past weekend. Hubby painted the baby’s room. I realized I’m not so good at supervising, because I decided I had to do some paint touch ups. I know I’m bad. I’ve gotten the lectures already. :-)

We started to replace the flooring. With this I’m a little better at the supervising part. I do allow myself to measure. The rest is muscle-work, which I left up to Hubby.

We are getting pretty good at installing laminate. This is the fourth time we have worked with the material and have figured out a few tricks. The only thing really slowing us down is that we have to borrow most of the tools needed. We did finally splurge on our very own handsaw. That moved things along.

So now the baby’s room and hallway are pretty much complete. We just have a few patches to fill and ¼ round trim to replace. The fastest method for that is to use a nail gun – which we will have to borrow. That fact alone may slow down the completion quite a bit, but at least the bulk of the job is complete. Yippee for Hubby and all his hard work (and sore hands, knees and pinched skin).

Next weekend we plan to tackle our bedroom floor, which involves moving a lot of furniture. I also have my baby shower to attend. And Hubby has to work the same day. So hopefully we can get it all done on Saturday and then I can start concentrating on the next thing I want done. I’m not sure what that is yet, but I feel I should make it a solo project or else Hubby will want nothing more to do with me. :-p


I’m going to wear out Hubby soon. I am starting to bring him to work with me to show him the ropes so he can take over when I am too big and tired to work and while I am in recovering after having the baby.

I’ve been tiring so easy lately. Taking an afternoon nap just about every day. I don’t let myself feel guilty about it either. In several weeks, sleep will be a luxury and I know I will wish I took more advantage of napping.

(This weeks belly picture coming soon. Like when I take a picture of myself and don't look so tired - LOL)
