I took the day off today FULLY intending to remove all rugs from my house and wash all the wood floors... BUT seeing as I am 32 weeks pregnant NONE of those things happened... I did however manage to dust and watch loads of "crap TV" and throw out piles of junk!! I like to call it "Nesting with the Best of Intentions" OK so here’s one for you… I took the day off today FULLY intending to remove all rugs from my house and wash all the wood floors… BUT seeing as I am 32 weeks pregnant NONE of those things happened… I did however manage to dust and watch loads of “crap TV” and throw out piles of junk!!

Yes, my 3 year old is allowed to play with a ball in the house. (Don't judge me mom!) I grew up in a family of soccer players and we were always getting yelled at to "take it outside!" You will never hear those words come out of my mouth. #2. She is allowed to get as dirty as she wants. I don't spend nearly enough money on clothes to care if they get ruined, and she'll have outgrown them by the next week anyway. #3. Having fun and learning through experience trumps my anal retentiveness when it comes to cleanliness. Everything can be hosed down anyway. In my opinion, as long as your kid is happy and having fun, who cares what gets painted on in the process. I have a few rules in my house.
