Sometimes...

So sometimes I don't know why I bother cleaning. I mean I can't stand a dirty house, and I really don't mind doing the work. But it seems like as soon as I finish and I am putting my feet up for the day, that some catastrophe takes place. It happens every time- without fail.
I was a cleaning machine yesterday, and it took me nearly all day to get everything done.. I move a lot slower these days... Then it was time to make dinner. Nathan was helping me make pizza. I had just added the yeast to my warm water, and turned around to grab a fork to stir it up. Nathan thought he was "helping" and dropped the bowl full of yeasty water all over my freshly mopped floor. He felt so bad - his little eyes started watering before I could even get mad (I still grumbled loudly though).
Then we were eating and I was being a dork and spilled orange soda all over myself and I got a few drops on the floor. Nothing to crazy you say, well...
Nathan has had a little cold or allergies- I am not sure which. He knows how to blow his nose, but doesn't do it hard enough to get anything significant out. He had been gagging on his snot most of the day, and I kept saying to myself,"Go get the decongestant" But then I would forget. We were just finishing lunch when he walked over to me covering his mouth. Next thing I know I am getting thrown up on- poor little guy had it coming out of his nose. It was ALL OVER! So I had to mop again. At least it didn't get on our freshly cleaned carpet. Hopefully he will get better soon.

On another note, I only have 6 weeks left. Here is the latest belly picture:

I am measuring almost exactly the same as I did with Nathan. So she could easily be another 9 pounder, which I really woudn't mind.

What a day! Why is it that mom's always end up wearing their kids' throw up? It's really not very nice of our kids is it?

Jessica said...

Wow- 6 weeks left- whoo-hoo! Lately I've been wearing everything, #1 & #2 from both kids (yes, BOTH) and Cason's spit-up.

Wow~ your belly is definitely growing! So cute! But really, having a small baby is NICE. I think it would kill me to have a 9 pounder. I still don't know how you did it with Nathan!

Sorry about the messy/pukey thing. Oh, do I ever know what you're dealing with.

Nate said...

I totally know how you feel!

You look so cute!

What a day! It sounds like you need a day to yourself, out of the house. Just let me know, and I will take Nathan for you. Madison would love to have someone to play with, and Nathan is such a sweet boy - it would be fun. Just let me know!

You look so good! I can't believe you are almost done...crazy!

Wow. Monica, It sound like you need a day off. The blessing of Motherhood... I too would be happy to take Nathan if you need a hand. I will be home now, so just let me know.
Look on the bright side, at least you know your kitchen floor is extra clean now.

Sounds like you had a rough day! I hope Nathan feels better soon. You're belly is so little, I know know how you could fit a 9 pounder in there. You look adorable!

very cute belly pic! You look great!

Teeny belly! Poor nathan, hope he's feeling better.

I can't believe you have 9 pound babies! I think I would rather DIE! They would have to take them c-section for sure. Raylee was 7.10 and it just about did me in!
