jude's birthday is this week and she has no idea that nana's coming to town uh so she's gonna be so excited except there's nowhere forever to walk around up here and this is where we will hang out with my grandma um most of the time just because it's easier than her going up and down the stairs and it's cozy and there's a tv here and she likes to watch her soaps and it's cozy and there's a tv here and she likes to watch her soaps so i've got to get this place into shape there's no telling how long it'll take but i'm going to in the process of this be weeding out things that the kids don't wear that don't fit them that are dingy dirty holy not holy holy but not holy um and things that we can just donate and get rid of because this is too this is too much this is too many clothes granted some of these are john's some are mine some are towels and then there's six children so we should have a lot of clothes but that's not all of them we've also got these piles over here we've got some in the washing machine we've got some in this closet and you remember that this closet's got clothes in it we got to go through we got a declutter we got to get rid of some things stay tuned i will show you guys what i end up keeping what i end up getting rid of and hopefully a clean loft with no laundry in it my help has arrived are you gonna wake up i need you quickly to just do one thing for me so i can get started are you ready what is on your mark get set can you bring the things this way i kind of feel like i might throw up so i'm trying to not bend and up and down bend around when i do too much of that i start to get really nauseous so if you can bring me the clothes rack and just like all the clothes we're gonna go through them we're gonna get rid of things john's opinion is actually really important because sometimes i'm like oh but i bought that five years ago on this and it was for this and he's like it's done it's seen better days let it go h m has a sale right now to 20 off for their members um of 75 or more so i was like you know what we'll get rid of things with holes because we can get them a few cute summer things if we need to while they're on sale all right here comes your clothes here comes the clothes yeah look at all this whoa i have to take a quick pull john's dad has been coming over to help us fold laundry which is such a blessing like it's been so good but then one day john was putting clothes away that his dad folded and there was a stack of mine that he handed me and it had my underwear no it's like john this is not okay and he said what it's just underwear and i said how would you feel about your father-in-law folding your underwear especially because he's going through the kids stuff and holding it up to figure out whose is who's and what size is it i'm not just i'm still a little bit mortified and i said john if he comes out with laundry anymore like we you make sure that my intimates are not in there here we are mountain mini mountain you know i need this stuff from the closet i need the stuff from everything merritt mary is that mine are you drinking it are you gonna help me with the laundry that one didn't sound so sure are you gonna help me with the laundry um yeah you wanna help me fold it can we get a wipe for your face do you wanna help me fold this no did your birthday judy's birthday you wanna have a birthday party should we have what should we have balloons huh should we have cake huh should we have nana huh mom means yes for everybody should we get her a present where should we get her baby and these bins up here oh my goodness [Music] all right tyler and her friends [Music] are in the backyard and addie and evan jude and they're all playing duck duck gifts [Music] an innocent little game that is cute they were on the trampoline and i was like what are they doing now this is oh they're pink duck ducky should we tend 10 year olds out there playing duck duck goose everybody that's how it should be see so it kind of looks like we basically just took the pile and spread it out which we kind of did we got the bathing suits put in a bin we got the towels folded we so what i'm doing is sorting out like socks and leggings underwear pajamas things that don't fit marin anymore that we're gonna keep just in case this baby's a girl uh we have a box of things that don't fit merit anymore that we're getting rid of that are just like worn out and then me and john's clothes because they go on different hangers so we'll just do those later and then now i'm going through all the pants so like my thing i like to i feel like it made the main pile smaller to get rid of things like underwear and stuff that the kids can separate and put their own drawers um now i'm just kind of going through each thing and like making sure there's no holes in it we've had some leggings that are hanging on my thread but i have a feeling i'm gonna be here pretty much all night and it's you gotta go potty get up go go go anyway it is dinner time john's gonna go down and start some dinner i'm gonna keep chipping away at this i will check back in with you guys in a little bit and see how far i've gotten i have a feeling i will still be working on it tomorrow because we still have loads like in the washer and the dryer and lots to do i'm also moving kind of slow because whenever i bend and move and do a lot i feel like i might throw up so i'm [Music] a like inefficient way of doing it all right we just wrapped up dinner it was just a little spaghetti the kids devoured it got a little dishes to do it's okay got the counters cleaned off i'm gonna check on danny d upstairs see how she's doing hi what's on your foot todd hey what's up all right let's see what progress danny's made how's it going danny what happened in here what i happened got really tired i'm telling you daylight savings time is the worst thing why it would be an hour it would be an hour oh i guess waking up an hour earlier i'm just so tired like i'm already tired because i'm growing a person but daylight savings time i mean it has been like the last week i'm like i am dragging i sleep in the morning and then i like need a nap by the afternoon and i'm like why am i stitch i don't know well also marin woke up at like 5 a.m um this morning and then go back to sleep before that and scratching me and kicking me and pushing me in the bed yes doing fun things that maren likes to do which is be rude that's her new thing she loves that so i figured after a quick catnap putting the little kids to bed we could get back to this knock it out tonight see you guys later this week um i'll try to record a pregnancy update since it's been a little while now officially past the halfway mark all right say bye bye to you guys [Music] [Music]
