Gutted Kitchen & 2 Weeks to Baby

Kitchen demolition has been a great way to help pass the time these last couple weeks before delivering our baby girl. My mom and mother-in-law are completely nervous about how I’m going to cook and wash dishes with a newborn, but Jason and I aren’t too concerned. Rather elated, actually. Call us naive — but if you could only see the nastiness that is beneath these cabinets and in the exposed sub-flooring, I believe that any mom-to-be would completely agree with me that it has GOT . TO . GO .  

My choice is to either bring a newborn home to a vacant (semi-clean) kitchen with limited appliances, or to a rotted out hole of nastiness with cockroaches and mice and mold and rot that we’ve been living with for the last 2 years of home ownership. Now … don’t you agree that we made the right decision?  

It may look like a mess — but to us, it is like heaven and we already feel better about how much cleaner it is. I think I’ve read in some books that pregnant women get psycho crazy about cleanliness just before they deliver. Hmmm … I’d say this qualifies.
