I haven't blogged much lately. Mostly because I don't have many things to update.
- We've been stuck inside for weeks thanks to the ridiculous cold and snow.
- The boys are doing well - Cooper is almost 100% potty trained. I guess that's one benefit of the hours spent indoors. Becks is talking up a storm and just the happiest little kid you ever met.
- Chris and I have been busy, busy, busy with work. Snow always means extra long hours for us.
So, I've been tagged for a few things lately.
The first - by my pal Allison to share the fourth picture in the fourth folder of my computer. Here it is...Cooper posing with one of his favorite friends - Ellie. I love that she is taking a giant swig of Cooper's chocolate milk while Jane (her mommy) and I are concentrating on getting some cute pictures of them together.
I mean it when I say - MY BOYS LOVE ELLIE. Cooper thinks both Jane and Ellie are named "Ellie" so it's hard to figure out who exactly he is talking about when he asks about Ellie. She's one of the boys favorites for sure though.
And the second tag is the "Random 25 things about Me" that's been going around Facebook. Here are those in no certain order...
25 Things about Me.
1. I wish my mother lived next door to me.
2. I can eat an entire large thin crust Dominos pizza ALONE.
3. The most exciting moment of the past 6 weeks was when Cooper pooped in the potty without being prompted.
4. I read menus at restaurants from right to left - checking prices first.
5. I work overnights - and I LOVE it. Shocking I know.
6. I think Chris is the best Dad in the whole world.
7. I drove my brand new shiny red Honda Prelude off the showroom floor when I was 18. It’s one of my favorite memories.
8. I hate Sea World. Hate it.
9. I wanted to be a reporter, but ended up producing because I didn’t want to go live in North Dakota or Iowa.
10. I love watching the boys play with their cousin Rissa. They are a bonded trio - and soon to be a foursome (we are getting a nephew in June).
11. I never want to move. Our house is too small, but I’m super attached to it since it’s the place where we became a family.
12. I love visiting my parents in Ironton. It’s like a vacation - they take great care of the boys while Chris and I sleep in and go on dates.
13. I only learned to cook after I became a wife and a mother.
14. I was a total late bloomer. I used to secretly play with Barbies in my basement, while all my friends were calling boys and painting their fingernails.
15. Hearing Beckett say "Mama" over and over again is magical. I love being his favorite person.
16. I would love to have another boy. Being the mom of three boys - well, I can’t think of anything much better than that.
17. I used to go to dozens of concerts every year, but the only shows I‘ve been to lately are the Doodle Bops and Disney on Ice. So long Red Hot Chili Peppers.
18. It freaks me out when I see my little brother in a suit with his blackberry and his laptop. He will forever be a kid in my eyes - not a sales rep!
19. I think my Dad is one of the smartest, most well read people in the whole wide world.
20. I was dumb enough to think that having a baby wouldn’t change me. But it did in a way I never imagined. A great way.
21. Some of my work girls are like family. I love them to pieces.
22. I had the hots for Chris the very first moment I saw him.
23. I write a blog - mostly about the boys. I do it for the people who love our kids - and want to see and hear how they are growing and changing.
24. My friends Annie and Mandy are like my sisters.
25. I get a HUGE thrill out of watching the Best Damn Band in the Land. Go Bucks!!!
