home improvement

So it's a day late but Happy New Year to all! We were busy all day yesterday rearranging our bedroom, purging and cleaning. It seemed to be a theme with all our family in town. Dave went up to help his Dad move furniture and replace a saw blade so he could lay new floor in their living room. We borrowed Arnold from his painting project with Denise so he could help Dave move our heavy desk to the other side of our bedroom. And even though we didn't see them, I know my Dad and brother Tom were busy working on their house remodel.

Mom and I had tentative plans to go to Half Moon Bay to buy crab for our traditional crab feed. We've tried to go get crab 3 times but the fisherman weren't selling it because of the oil spill in the Bay or bad weather. After waking up late in the morning and having lots of projects looming before the baby gets here we didn't go. Jessie wants crab as bad as I do. She would drive there by herself if she could. We could always go buy it from the store, but it's not as fun as bringing home live ones straight off the boat. The kids love everything about the day- except cleaning them. Hopefully we can sneak a day in to go soon.

There is so much on my to-do list before this baby comes. I have an evil battle going in my head that goes something like this.

Clean the house
Reorganize my room, the kids room, the living room
I can't take it any longer- this baby needs to come now
But first I want to take the kids to the zoo, the Jungle, spend time with each one
