Oh. my. gosh. Last week was crazy! I am so happy to have it behind me! We have been hustling to get some projects done because we knew we would be hosting a baby shower this past weekend. The shower was for my husband’s best friend whose wife is due with a girl two days after me. If we deliver at the same time you can be sure that my husband and her’s will be playing cornhole in the hospital parking lot. Gosh, that would be their dream come true!
Since I am pretty large and in charge these days I decided to not do a lot of food prep for the shower. I went the store-bought route and kept the decorations simple and (I think) it turned out pretty cute…
All in all the shower was great…good weather, lots of sweets, and good people.
I, of course, was thinking of all the things I wish I had gotten done to the
house before the shower but that’s life.
Speaking of getting things done, I have to tell you why last week was so crazy.
In addition to prepping for this shower I sold a bunch of stuff at a consignment sale.
I have never sold at one before and it was a ton of work. I had over 150 items, all of which needed to be priced, entered into the computer, tagged, and hung up!
I better make millions.
I also met with a new client and have decided to take on their house.
It is 5 bedrooms, needs to be furnished, and a majority of it needs to be done by December!
I am so excited and they are going to be great to work with but I am freaking a little bit looking at my due date! Luckily the wife is due 2 days after me so she is totally understanding.
But still!!!
I also have 2 other clients I am right in the midst of and my own nursery is not even close to done.
Somehow I love this craziness but I just don’t want to disappoint anyone!
I am hoping to complete my rug on time (rug party details here)
and I want to also keep up on blogging without boring you to death (as Jenny talked about here).
So what’s new in your lives? Anyone else have a full plate or feeling a little crazed?! Anyone have suggestions for an afternoon pick-me-up other than coffee??
Sorry for the long rambling post…I may still be in a sugar coma from Saturday.
Hope your weekends were great!

Sugar comas can be a good thing! Looks like a fun shower and isn't it kinda fun to have a preggo partner in crime? Happy Monday, Beth!

I love having other preggos around. You need someone who understands the importance of food at this stage 🙂
