Do you do it? I normally don't, but I feel like the house was much cleaner before M came along. ;)

I think I'll start making a to do list. Then maybe try a room or 2 a weekend?

    Not usually, but I've been a big slacker this winter - everything needs a good scrub. I'm starting to look around and see little things we need to do before lo comes too.

    I'm with you in making a list and doing a room or two a weekend. My mom has offered to come help me. She's already nested her house for lo haha.

    I do. My major thing is totally cleaning out of bedrooms and closets.  Take out window screens and scrub them and the windows, wipe out cabinets. If I am feeling super motivated I like to steam clean the couch cushions and all carpets too.

    Yes we need to steam clean the carpets too! We said we would do it yearly but we skipped last year.

    I do all of our closets, and do a deep scrubbing of everything else. I usually wait until its warm enough to open all the windows. The house seems so much more "fresh" when I'm able to air everything out.

    Once it warms up I'll think about it- I like to just air the whole place out and scrub.

    Nah.  The only thing I've been thinking about doing that would be out of the ordinary (aka not part of my normal routine) would be to clean the screens.

    Does this answer have anything to do with the fact that you live in the world's cleanest house? ;)

    I normally do. It just feels better...

    I could wash my own windows but I think I'm going to hire someone to help me with my spring cleaning this year

    We desperately need to, but on all the weekends we think we're going to get it done, something comes up & no one can watch the boys.

    And, we really shouldn't be in the same room cleaning at the same time. It gets ugly.
