Getting to know you

I thought a little Q/A would ease my transition back into blogging while I'm caring for Miss Sickie. Which PS, I hope NONE of your children EVER get this sickness-it is absolutely atrocious and I wouldn't wish it upon my worst enemy. The poor babe is just pitiful and I cannot take it anymore. I am crying as much as she is because I can't bear to see her hurting. AWFUL. So much for "bed rest."

Here are the questions:

1. What's your favorite rainy day activity?

Reading, playing with Emma and doggles (and J if he's home), blogs, organizing something. Generally just being low key and cuddly.

2. What time do you go to bed?

When I was working, about 9-10. Now, when I'm tired. Which is generally about the same time since I'm 15416546 weeks pregnant.

3. How many magazines do you subscribe to?

I think 2-3 now. Star, Parents, and.............I think another one, but can't be sure. I don't really have time for reading magazines. I make time for blogs first. :)

4. Did you sell all your belongings because you thought the world was ending yesterday?

Umm, no. I forgot we were supoosed to be raptured until about 5:58. In all seriousness, I was not in any way, shape, or form thinking this would happen. We will have no clue when the real rapture will occur.

5. What's your beauty obssesion?

Shampoo/Conditioner, face wash, and pedicures! A pedicure can make anyone feel fab!

6. If you could only wear one designer/brand for the rest of your life...what would it be?

When I'm not the size of a trailer, I love NY&Co and Loft. If I had to choose, I'd say NY&Co because I can get a ton of pieces and be somewhat trendy without going broke.

7. What's your summer must have?

J'adore some wine in the summer, but I must have sunglasses, flops, and runniung shorts!

8. Do you make weekly dinner menus?

YES! I have been doing this for about 6-7 years now, and I couldn't function without it. There may be the rare week when I'm off schedule due to travel or whatnot, but I really need to plan it out, look for coupons, and shop. I do not like going to the store 3-4 times per week for random things.

So, I would love to know these things about you all. Who wants to play? Link up to http://www.mannland5.com/ and let's learn about each other!

Upcoming blogs will be about Emma's new room, HME's nursery, and our playroom! Stay tuned......

8 Things

My girl Jordyn over at 8 Hour Brunch tagged me in a little meme called 8 most worn things.

It was hard for me to think of 8 things I consistently "wear," so some of this stuff is a stretch.

This summer, my uniform is some form of athletic shorts and a t shirt/tank top.
So, every day I must be rocking some cotton athletic shorts. Although not these-since they are bubble gum pink and look like they were made for a four year old.



Next, I am also ALWAYS wearing my hair in a bun/messy ponytail. It does not get fixed unless I'm going on a date. So, basically it gets fixed about 3 times per month.

Every.single.day this graces my face. And it has been for a long time. And will continue.

Every day I am wearing some form of flip flops, be it my Rainbows, my Reefs, my LL Beans, or a pair with a little wedge for some dress up time. :D

Every time I leave the house, this is on my shoulder. Emma's Vera Bradley diaper bag in purple punch.

I wear a sports bra every day of my life unless I am teaching or on a date. So, basically all summer long I wear a sports bra. Sorry, this picture was taken while I was running my daily 4 miles. I look a little thrown away.

Have I never shown y'all a picture of me? Sorry it is this exercising one.

Every day I am wearing this chiclet. She is a hot mess. She is the epitome of hot messiness in this picture. Her newest thing is to get in the drawer full of dog leashes and harnesses and drape them all over herself. This occupies her for precisely 7 minutes then she moves on.

I carry this purse every day. Ever since it's glorious inception into my life over my girls' weekend.

So, what are 8 things you wear almost every day? I am pulling a Mrs. Potts and not linking up. But, I hope a lot of you will participate. I LOVE reading stuff like this by other people. Thanks for sharing, Jordyn!
