Serious Lack of Motivation

I’m trying hard to motivate myself to get anything done, and it just isn’t working. I barely have the motivation to finish this blog. Eventually I’ll get back to it, but for now I’m not going to worry about posting my weekly posts.

Hope everyone is well! 21 days until Baby J is here!!!!

Ta-Da Tuesday

This past week I was awesome! :) I need to brag every once in a while!

Accomplished:

  • fixed the sewing machine & sewed more of my blanket (unfortunately it broke again, probably going buy a new one)
  • laundry
  • organized Jacob’s gear!!!! put it in a big Tupperware bin. YAY!!!
  • packed a little more into my AZ box
  • went through my closet & dresser & packed away clothes for AZ (stuff that doesn’t fit because of my belly)
  • emptied my side table drawers
  • packed the stuff that was on top of my dresser
  • Jacob rearranged the living room to fit our new 60” TV :) (good job, babe!)

See… I rocked! This weekend is a 4-day weekend for President’s Day so we are making a trip to storage! I’m running out of room to put boxes.

 

This week’s to-do list:

  • get Jacob to go through his closet & dresser & pack away clothes that he doesn’t wear often
  • make a few trips to storage
  • organize all the stuff that has ended up in the playpen (it has become my “catch-all” spot)
  • pack away things in the entryway closet
  • organize pile by kitchen
  • pack, pack, pack

I’m running out of things to do besides pack. I’m hoping I’ll become more motivated once there is more room to store things. We’re going to need to get a bigger storage unit, or another smallish one, to keep all of our stuff in!

Munchkin Monday

100_2793Yesterday we took Korbin to see Disney Live Rockin’ Roadshow! He had so much fun watching Mickey & his friends sing & dance on stage. Even Jacob enjoyed himself! After the show we went to Texas Roadhouse with some friends who were also at Disney Live. When we got home we watched a movie & Korbin fell asleep on the floor, fully dressed!  

On Saturday Korbin woke up with a fever of 103.4, so we spent the morning in the emergency room. He was diagnosed with bilateral ear infections and given antibiotics. As usual, this did not stop him from playing & running around like nothing was wrong. He is doing a little better today, but now has a cough & still runs a low fever.  Thankfully, I have not caught whatever it is that is going around!

Ta-Da Tuesday

Ok, here is what I have accomplished this past week:

  • cleaned/organized our bedroom
  • sold our bookshelves
  • messed up our bedroom again with all the stuff off the bookshelves :)
  • packed all of our DVDs and video games
  • washed towels (still haven’t put them away)
  • started an “AZ box” (things that aren’t going in storage)
  • packed a little

As you can see, I still have not fixed the sewing machine. It sits there mocking me with its thread strewn about & fabric lazily stacked next to it. I just can’t bring myself to go near it!

This week’s to-do list:

  • contemplate touching the sewing machine
  • re-clean our bedroom
  • pack more
  • clean up Jacob’s gear!!! (it is EVERYWHERE!)
  • do laundry

Maybe I should put this list somewhere other than my blog… like somewhere that I can see it on a regular basis. Hmm… maybe. :)

Munchkin Monday

Finally!

We have been scheduled! Baby J will grace us with her long awaited presence on March 12, 2010!!!!

Andrew, Korbin & Jacob

We helped some friends move into their new house on Saturday. The picture is of Korbin helping Jacob & Andrew get the fireplace started. He’s such a big helper :)

Here are the boys playing in a box. They did this all by themselves, banging on the sides like drummers!

I’m sure every parent loves to show their kid off and I am definitely one of them! Today we picked up Jacob from work & had to wait quite a while. So, to pass the time we colored on a white board, showing off how Korbin can recognize & help spell his name! He’s getting a lot better at recognizing the letters on their own (not just when written in his name). He is a big hit with the Echo Co. soldiers & officers. High fives all around, joking with the guys & generally causing chaos! Just like the big boys!

No post on Sunday :)

 

Yesterday we went to a wedding & didn’t get home until 9pm. We had a great time dancing, watching Korbin mingle among the adults & seeing friends we haven’t seen in a while. Of course, Korbin was a big hit with all the ladies!

Here is what I should have posted yesterday:

I’m not currently reading anything. I returned The Guardian early for a few reasons. One is that I was unable to renew it online because someone put a hold on it. The other reason is I wasn’t as intrigued by this book as the others by Nicholas Sparks. I haven’t made it to the library yet, but hope to this week.
