Spring Clean Update & Insta Friday!

Welcome to Friday! 
It has already been a wonderful morning, and despite the rain we are supposed to get today, I am excited for what this day will hold for us! 

Let's start the day off with an update on yesterday's cleaning project
 Although this is not my favorite chore, it was pretty quick and easy. 
Basically, I took out all the food, disposed of things that were moldy and just gross, wiped the shelves, and washed out the drawers. There wasn't as much gunk and nasty stuff as I expected--which was pleasantly surprising! 

Before
Sorry this one's a little dark...the lighting in my kitchen is awful!


After! 

I feel really good about having this project behind me! Maybe I will stay on top of it this time and it won't get so out of control?? Maybe...we'll see! 
Today's plan is to clean out the car (which definitely needs it). I am looking forward to doing an "outside" chore this morning before the rain hits! Updates to come tomorrow! 

Now...let's get to the fun stuff! 
(I'll be linking up with Jeanette from LifeRearranged)
Went to Hobby Lobby yesterday with my good friend and her little one.
Picked this cute fabric up for Baby Boy! Not sure what I'm going to do with it yet, but 
isn't it adorable?!? Swoon!


I had found a remnant of the gray chevron last trip to Hobby Lobby...this time I found yellow! Hooray! The frames are PERFECT too and I plan to put a bicycle iron-on on one piece of fabric and Baby Boy's initial on the other!
I'm totally ready to get baby's room put together but there's only one issue--we won't be living here and I don't know where we'll be living so baby doesn't have a room yet...and neither do the rest of us :)

These lovelies were in my mom's garden

Mama robin outside our bedroom window. Little E LOVES looking at her every day! I'm thinking we'll have babies to gaze as pretty soon!!

View of the sunrise from our bedroom window on Sunday---overlooking the river.
Doesn't get much better.

Baby Boy's bedding is coming along! I have the two small bumpers made and the crib blanket. Next step is the two large bumpers. Still have the sheet and bedskirt, but we're getting there!

Lunch outside on a beautiful sunny day!

During my RunForBoston memorial run. 
This week I did two runs in memory of those who were victims of the bombing in Boston on Monday.


28 weeks and 3(ish) days.

Ready to watch her Cisa (my mom) run her first ever 5k! She did amazing! 

Playing with Aunt B and celebrating her birthday last weekend! It was a gorgeous day!

Well folks, that about sums up my week! 
I'm definitely ready for this weekend and some down time! 

Actually, this is the first Saturday that The Hubs hasn't had a meeting (or some other obligation) in over a month! He's giving me the morning to do whatever I please...here's the issue--I can't decide what I want to do! 
Go to a coffee shop and read? 
Stay home and sew?
Go sit and chat with a friend?

Decisions, decisions! 

Hope you have a great weekend!
