I've been on full nesting mode for a good few weeks now. At 33 weeks, the nursery is ready, I have bought, washed and ironed all the baby's clothes and have lovingly folded and put them away in her chest of drawers. All her T-shirts and dresses are hanging in my dining room, ready to go into the wardrobe once DH makes it up (darn flat pack furniture that's too heavy for me to lift!!).

Now I'm moving my attention onto the rest of the house! I have re-organised the spare room and sorted things into filing cabinets, storage boxes etc. I have been through my wardrobe and cleared a load of stuff out. Today, I'm washing and restuffing my sofa cushions (while I work from home).

Tomorrow, I think I might give the lounge a quick lick of paint just to freshen it up. I might wash the curtains, too.

Did you get the nesting urge? What jobs did you do around the house?

ps - people keep telling me to use this time to read novels, go out for lunch and sleep while I can - and yes, that's all well and good but this nesting is an urge... I neeeeed to do it!
