Today our niece Lizzie (Anthony and Kathy's youngest) celebrates her fourth birthday. Happy birthday!!!

It was another cool and cloudy day, although it was about 10 degrees warmer so we made it to around 60 degrees. Poor Cory has been freezing at work because they turned on the air conditioning last week, and right now his office is below 60 degrees the majority of the day.

Today I spent timing cleaning up our guest room, which is also where Cory sleeps when all three kids are in bed with me. It's also where we have several bookshelves and a growing pile of boxes filled mostly with artwork from the kids. I still have to go through the boxes to get rid of some of it and then figure out where to put the rest. We've definitely run out of storage space in our house, but if we managed to declutter a bit and add on some shelving that would help a lot. Cory's delivering pizza tonight, and when he called a bit ago I said I was cleaning up our upstairs landing area. "Oh, so you're nesting!" was Cory's reply. I told him no, I was just tired of walking through the mess. I really do hope I do some major nesting before this baby arrives, though. Unfortunately, that's not something I usually do, at least as far as major cleaning and organizing. I do always want to read as much as possible and pare down the magazines and books that I'm not interested in keeping. I guess that's how I nest, huh? It's too bad that there isn't as much time to read as there once was.

Tomorrow Accalia has swimming lessons again (she seems to like them so far) and then we're going to take the kids to the carnival that sets up in the mall parking lot twice a year - at the beginning of summer and at the end. I think they're all really excited about that.

Okay. Time to get Cole the snack he's asking for and pick up one last pile upstairs.
