1.Working on baby girl VC's room. I have the paint on the walls and ready to organize all the fun little baby stuff! The color selected for baby girl VC's room is called dune grass. I will post the finished product if that day ever comes.
2. Organizing! Caleb and I have been organizing and downsizing our closets. Caleb used to keep all of his stuff in the guest room (which is now becoming baby room.) We are sharing a closet! (Yes.... I said sharing!) Anyone who knows me understands this is not an easy task! Goodwill will be getting a heaping donation in the next few weeks! It actually feels good to eliminate! Almost cleansing!
3. Meal planning. I have been meal planning for the last year and have loved it! I plan out meals for two weeks at a time. This helps with grocery shopping and staying within a budget! I have found an amazing site that does all the planning for you! This has been amazing because it was taking up to two hrs. to plan and write out my grocery list. If you click here it will take you right to the site! The cost is $15.00 for three months of meals and grocery lists. For busy mom's it's so worth it! All you need to do is shop and cook. This has been a life saver and time saver. Especially being a working mother of almost two, it really helps with knowing what I will be making when I get home. It also allows you to eat a variety of meals so you don't always feel like you are eating the same things every two weeks.
4. Caleb is the number one seller in the company at Aspen. He has been putting in long hours trying to help people see the importance of health and fitness. He is really a hard worker and loves what he does. It will be nice having him around for a week when the baby comes.
5. We are heading up to a water park in Minnesota in March with some of our closest friends. We will stay the weekend and have fun swimming, and enjoying fellowship. I think we are planning on squeezing in a little shopping and the boys are planning on hitting the casino. Look for pictures coming soon.
6. I get the joy of teaching 50 fifth graders about puberty and how our bodies change. Enough said.
7. I'm getting up every night about 3 times to pee. Some nights I don't even remember getting up, the next thing I know I am on the pot. Baby girl VC is also very active between the hours of 2:00 & 4:00. I hope this doesn't mean that she will be on the outside!
8. Easton is getting molars. He already has four and is getting more. This last weekend he had low fevers, was very clingy to momma, and had a few major blow outs due to the teething process. I can't believe my baby is getting big by teeth!
9. We no longer have our little puppy Gizmo. He went to a nice loving family that has a couple of elementary aged kids. I miss him lots! I still look down where his water and food dish used to be to see if he needs more food or water. It was sad giving him away and I miss him everyday.
10. We can't wait until spring at the Van Cleave household. When it arrives we can play outside and go to the parks to play and have picnics. We are still hanging in the 30 degree weather range and hoping it warms up soon! We want to retire the coats and bring on the short sleeves.
