I can't be nesting already, can I?!

I've been looking around our cozy home wondering where in the world am I going to put baby items? I'm not stressing over it, rather taking action to make the best of what little space we have. "So, if I move the reclining massage chair out of the living room I'll have room for the play yard ... dear Silverback rearranged our bedroom furniture to make space for the cradle" and since I've redecorated our bedroom too ... now my thoughts have moved onto storage. I completely emptied my closet to make room for baby clothes & items I've started accumulating for a newborn. It's become a total reorganization process & I really like the results. Although this means that our garage that was tidy from "spring cleaning" is now cluttered again with miscellaneous boxes and piles that I don't know what to do with yet. And because our bedroom is nicely organized now I want to tackle the House Apes' room to sort through all the STUFF bogging their room down. My apes hate it when I get into this rearranging/reorganizing mode -- I think they prefer clutter.

Since I kept most of HA #2's baby boy clothes, my dear cowsin (cousin for those who don't understand our lingo) dropped off boxes of baby girl clothes she no longer needs for her Sprout #4. It was so fun sitting down in the middle of the livingroom sorting through all the hand-me-downs because many were from my HA #1! Now that she's 5 it was hysterical to watch her attempt to try on 6 month old hats & slippers. Ahh, can't wait to find out which boxes of baby clothes I'll be diving into :)
