So I was reading my friend whitney's blog and she and some of her fellow bloggers were involved in a game of tag to get to know each other a little better, so the rules are I tell you 11 interesting facts about myself and then I answer questions Whitney has given me to answer so here it goes.
1. I am totally addicted to my iPad, I got it for Christmas and I literally can't put it down. I love how I can surf the Internet while I'm feeding adalynn or whatever other mommy job I am doing.
2. I love to dance, and that is probably one of the only things I miss about high school since I was on the drill team then. I do occasionally do zumba on my wii and that is pretty fun.
3. I tell Jeff to go get Blake all these kid movies (lion king, cars2,ect) not just because I think Blake will enjoy them, but because I really want to see them too, I'm just a big kid at heart :)
4. I get lost while using a gps and I even screw up place and bake cookies, but hey that is just me and I have learned to just laugh at myself.
5. I have learned to function on very little sleep. Since miss priss still does not sleep through the night I have learned that 3 hours of sleep can get me through my day.
6. I miss being able to go to dinner without having to worry about bringing my whole house with me ( toys, diapers, wipes, ect).
7. I hate being so far away from my family. I miss them and don't get to see them nearly enough.
8. I am a saver, and hate spending money on myself, but when it comes to my family I have no problem spending money on them (especially adalynn there is just too many cute girl things out there)
9. I eat chocolate on a daily basis, I know I shouldn't, but I just can't help myself :)
10. Listening to Blake tell me stories about dragons, trains, cars, ect makes me smile. He is so creative and it just amazes me what he comes up with.
11. I have discovered that early in the morning is the best time for my "me" time, explains why I'm writing a blog at 2:30 am
Now to answer whitney's questions
1.why did I start my personal blog?
I started my blog basically to give me time to do something just for me. Even though I blog mostly about my kids, it allows me to vent,seek advice, share accomplishments, and hopefully make other moms know they aren't alone.
2. What is one thing my blog followers would be surprised to know about me?
That's a good question, hmm I guess it would be that no matter how hard I try to be a good mom I still feel like I fall short. I can get very impatient with my kids and I find myself yelling more, and I don't like that. I know no one is perfect, but I wish I wouldn't lose my patience so easily. Something I definitely need to work on.
3. If my life was a sitcom which one would it be and why?
I would have to say modern family because I feel like my family life is very chaotic at times, but in the end we all love each other and usually get a big laugh at whatever crazy situation we are in.
4. If I won the lottery, what would I do with the winnings?
Jeff and I actually talk about this quite often, if we won we would pay off our house, put our kids through college, and then probably travel a lot, we both have places overseas we would like to visit some day.
5. If I was a superhero what would my superpower be?
The ability to clone myself that way I could sleep, play with my kids, and get house chores done...that would be a sweet set up there :)
6. If I could sit down with anyone alive or dead for dinner who would it be?
I would say being able to sit one on one with Jesus would be pretty sweet. It would be nice just to be able to talk with him and hear what he has to say about everything.
7. What do I like most about myself?
I would have to say my generous nature, even when I was little I never liked to see people hurting and was always willing to give what I could to people.
8. What is my biggest weakness?
My biggest weakness I would say is being a procrastinator. I put things off all the time, and if I would just do it then things wouldnt pile up causing a big chore to be done.
9. What is my favorite quote?
I know it is a simple quote, but I try to live by treat people the way you want to be treated. I am constantly asking Blake " would you like it, if I did such and such to you?". If you wouldn't want it done to you, then you shouldn't do it to others simple as that.
10. In ten years where do I see myself?
In ten years I will be 37, so hopefully by then I will be working as an elementary teacher, and maybe being able to purchase a bigger house.
Well I hope everyone had fun getting to learn a little bit more about me and have a great week.
