Yesterday I got a ton done. I did laundry, ran errands (library, hardware store, groceries), and baked bread (in the bread maker). I practiced the piano, and I even updated my blog with that lovely music playlist you see to the right. And I put it on top so you can turn it off without having to search my entire blog to find the stupid button.
I did a bunch of cooking: I boiled eggs for snacks, I baked pumpkin muffins at 4 in the afternoon (remind me sometime how that's the hottest time of the day. I seem to forget), and later went swimming with Kevin. Which is not cooking, but it was just part of that sentence.
Man! I got so much done!
Contrast today: I went to the doctor. Yup, still pregnant. I went to our ward's playgroup, even though I don't have kids. I noticed I wasn't the only one who didn't have playground-aged kids, but sometimes when you're a stay-at-home mom (especially one who doesn't have kids yet) you just want to go be social.
I came home and ate lunch, put together our baby swing (thank you Cherisse and Ryan, for bringing it by last night on your way to Washington at 1 AM!).
Then I took a nap for the rest of the afternoon.
Kevin came home from work, we ate dinner, and now he is taking a nap. Maybe this has something to do with our fly-by-night guests that stopped by in the wee hours and wouldn't stay even though we requested that they do so.
It's okay, though. They brought us a baby swing and a highchair (the exact kind we wanted and registered for... mostly because we liked theirs).
So if any of you are planning to drive through Boise any time soon, please bring gifts. We may even feed you pumpkin muffins at 2 AM. :)

I went to playgroup in our married ward before Cami was born and after I had stopped working. But Cami joined me soon after.
The only thing that I had to get done before Kyle was born was a very thorough cleaning of our apartment. Three hours before they started the induction, I was on my hands and knees scrubbing our bathroom and kitchen floor. My mom did it while in labor. I'm glad I did. You never know how long after you have a baby that it happens again. For me it was four months... :)
That's definitely nesting. Which means the baby is JUST AROUND THE CORNER! Have any contractions started up yet? What did the doctor say?
