Nesting?

So I'm 36 weeks pregnant now, and I think the nesting has started. I want to do laundry so bad, the only thing that's stopping me is I have to go outside to get there! I've kept the kitchen really clean, all by myself, since Jon is sick. You probably don't realize how amazing that is for me, I think I went our first couple years of being married without cleaning the kitchen once! Luckily Jon doesn't mind it, and does it for us. But I have this strong urge for the kitchen to be clean! And the bathroom too. And I reorganized Katie's toys. It's getting ridiculous.

So the thing about keeping the kitchen clean that makes it even more amazing is that I've been cooking and baking like crazy. I've been freezing half of everything I make so it can be easier when the baby comes. But the one thing I've been dying to try is cinnamon rolls. I found a recipe that was supposed to taste just like Cinnabons, and so I tried them. Last night I made the dough and got them all ready, and put them in the fridge, then this morning I baked them. They were SO GOOD!!!!! Here's the link to the recipe, if you're interested. It's been a long time since I've been to Cinnabon, but I swear they tasted just the same!

Here they are! (The pre-frosting one is because they were so pretty!)

Manda, it totally sounds like you're nesting! I went through the same thing with all three kids and I'm telling you that I HAD to get everything clean. It was an obsession! Those cinnnamon rolls look SO good! I'm going to try them. They look so yummy! It probably doesn't help that I'm starving right now waiting for breakfast to finish baking in the oven! Ha ha!
