Why is it that pregnancy always instills this organizational itch that needs to be scratched?
Every time it results in moving furniture, closets, shelves. But it becomes bigger then what was initially intended. Usually it's just something simple like a change over of seasonal clothing for the kids. Which reminds me to clean out their closets, or exchange one bed for another. Either way it results in more work and a sore back.
However, if I really want to be honest. I have to admit. I like it. I love that feeling of organization. Of knowing where everything is. And that it's clean. (for the time being) Maybe these traditional "Merry Maid" festivities are a result of making room for the new addition to the family. Making sure there is proper bedding, drawers and clothes dug out to be prepared for the whirlwind that is always in the wake of a newborn entering a new family. And I don't know why it always surprises us women that we find ourselves knee deep bent over a cupboard asking for a rag to clean out the dust in the back...but we do.
I guess it's just reality...setting in.

I'm not pregnant, and I still do that!!! LOL!!! Yesterday, what was supposed to be just making my bed, turned into vacuuming out the mattress, dusting the ceiling fan, changing the sheets, dusting my bedroom, and vacuuming the carpet! LOL!!! Whew!!!
It feels good to get those things done, huh!
I am so with you. Not just yet this pregnancy but in a few weeks I will have moved my entire house around AGAIN!
