Pointless post of the day

Kitchen, oh kitchen what a place you have been.
Always so dirty never so clean.
Why oh why do you torment me so?
When oh when will you stay clean and nice?
Why do my children have to eat 24 hours of the day?
Why do they spill everything every which way?
Is there really a point in keeping you clean?
When the task seems to be done and the floors, counters, sinks, oven all sparkle and shine.
That is the time for the mess to begin again.
An endless loop of cleaning and scrubbing,
Starting to wonder how people can be so very very dirty.
Me included of course as who wouldn't rather eat than clean? Hehehe

Yay for good news

So this week we have been able to get our car fixed, at least it is now in driving condition.
I was also able to sell my futon for enough to pay for the couch and dryer we picked up at the mission. Yay

We had our November MOPS meeting and I cant believe how many new faces we have this year, since I am so horrible at remembering names I will be trying to work extra hard on it this year. Besides new faces we have also already had 6 moms announce that they are expecting in just 2 meetings, it is going to be a big baby year me thinks. :)
Everyone seemed to enjoy the craft and hopefully they will be able to actualy find it useful in there homes.

Christmas quickly approaches and I am wanting to get my house clean and organized before we decorate so that only gives me a couple of weeks. I also need to make some Christmas gifts, buy a few gifts, get bags ready for the hospital for the kids and us, bake some Christmas goodies, and about a million trillion other things. I really am not too stressed about it at this moment, but hopefully that will last. I want this holiday to be peaceful and focussed on the right things. The birth of our Saviour Jesus Christ, not presents, food, or anything else. Those things are all fun and fine but it can be hard to pull the focus away from them and keep things simple.

Only 65 days left until I am due to have baby Haven so he will be here before we even know whats happening I am sure. My oh my does time fly when the days are so full.

Our big find!

So we went to our local Rescue mission store the other day in search of a new dryer as ours has been dead for over 2 weeks. (Not fun at all) Well luckily we found one, but as we were about to leave I found the prettiest couch which I now realize I have not taken a pic of yet. :)

So we now have a real couch for the first time since we got married. And the futon pictured below I have put up for sale in the news review. I hope it sells for more then we paid for the couch.

That would be awesome!!!

Tackle it Tuesday

Okay so I know my Tuesday is far more than halfway over!I have decided to do a tackle today anyway because I am not achieving anything and hopefully posting this will inspire me to do so! So my tackle for whats left of today is to go and get my kitchen completely finished. My DH was kind enough to help me clean out the fridge as well as move the microwave last week when he was off for a few days. We really got alot done and I just need to finish it up. Dishes finished, sweeping, mopping, clean out under the kitchen sink! So here goes nothing.

The Diaper Covers

So here are some of the diaper covers I made for the new baby!

They turned out really cute and I am planning on making a bunch to have for sale at the spring fair this year.

Baby Haven

So I don't think I ever posted these!

Here he is the newest little man, Haven Emanuel!

My Timmy Boy wondered off with the actual images so these are the only ones I have, I took them real quick with our camera when we got home. Good thing I did.

Pregnancy and Life

So I spent the last 2 days, at least when i was home sewing new diaper covers for Caleb and the new little man. Those tiny covers are the cutest. Once I get them back from a friend (Thanks Shae) who is putting snaps on them I will have to post a picture.
Now I just have to make some medium sized ones but I ran out of the fold over elastic so I will have to reorder before I can sew anymore. :)

I am getting those pregnancy feelings of needing to achieve something. I need my house clean, organized. Things are starting to bother me, you know like the paint needs touched up it seems like everywhere, and I notice every imperfection that would really just take a few minutes (Or more likely hours) to fix if I just sat down and worked on it.

Anyway I have around 3 months left to wait and hopefully in that time I will get some real things accomplished. I love the feeling of motivation and always wish it would last forever. As I am normally more unmotivated.

Also I am going crazy thinking about all the things in between this time and the baby.
Thanksgiving, Christmas, New years, 3 Mops meetings, My girls B-day (The day before baby is due). This time of year is wonderful but also can be very stressful so I am trying to do my best to be prepared.
