I am probably not nesting at 22 weeks but I am trying to get myself organized for the winter.
I have gone through all of the girls clothes (4 big rubbermaid bins). I have kept items that have sentiment to me, clothes that will still fit Ashley and the rest will be donated or given away. I have three, big, orange garbage bags to give away. I might sell some items but 80% (slightly less) were given to me as hand me downs so I hate to make a profit on them. I would rather them go to someone in need. It's funny as I was going through the clothes I knew nearly every item and who I received it from. I have a good memory like that I guess...or maybe all mothers are like that. I have one bin remaining for Ashley and one small bin of sleepers and sentimental clothes.
I was at Walmart today and bought a bunch of jars for canning. I am going to can peaches, pears, and a couple different kinds of soups. I would like to also can some salsa but we will see on that one. I have never canned before but my mom is willing to help me so I am grateful for that. I also have the urge to get some freezer meals made. The BC fruit stand in Camrose has canning peaches availbe so I am going to pick up a case or two tomorrow or Thursday. The lady working the stand said she sold out quickly last week.
Anyway. I don't think this is actual nesting. I didn't get the nesting with Natasha as I was induced BUT with Ashley I did. The night (or very early morning) my water broke I was cleaning bathrooms, washing floors and tidying up like crazy. When I went to bed...my water broke.
I think with me its planning and the time of year I am due. I want to know well in advance what is going on as far as Christmas dinner, travelling, company, etc. I really dislike last minute especially when a major event is just around the corner.
Whatever it is...its good for my house, my freezer, my storage room, etc.
