Honest post

I saw this on my friend Tracy's blog and it sounded like fun so I am doing it....

It is called honest scrap...

A) First list 10 honest things about yourself--and make it interesting even if you have to dig deep.
B) Pass the award on to 7 bloggers that you feel embody the spirit of Honest Scrap...

1) When I was pregnant with Addy I knew I would love her but I didn't know how much I could love her. I never knew I could love, worry, and care for another person so much. I can honestly say it is the most wonderful and amazing feeling in the world.

2) I have really bad social anxiety. I am fine when I am with friends or at work but when I am with people I don't know I ball up and freak out a little inside. I don't like when strangers try to talk to me it makes me really nervous and I don't ever know what to say. I am terrible at small talk.

3) I don't like when my family give my their opinions about what I should do with my baby. They say things like she is too hot take her jacket off, she is too cold put her jacket on, she doesn't like that headband on. It drives me nuts! I think I can decide what is best for my little lady.

4) The only thing Shane and I fight about is where and what to eat for dinner. It is so stupid. We both are very passioniate about food so why do we have so much trouble when it comes to dinner. Ahhhh!

5) I really hope that Addy always has a close realtionship with her grandparents. I was never really close to my grandparents growing up, I really only saw them on holidays and other special occasions. Now that I am older I talk to them more but I feel like I missed out on a lot of years that I can't make up. I don't want Addy to have those same feelings we she is an adult so I would like her to always be close to my parents.

6) If someone gave me a million dollars I would spend a good portion of that money on new clothes. I really dislike most of my clothes and I would like it if I could just buy all new ones and start my wardrobe all over again that would be awesome.

7) I am trying really hard not to fatty and junky food but it is so hard. Why does all the fatty food taste so good. I want to be the same size I was in high school. I may never be that little again but it would be nice if I could lose some weight. I really don't like to exercise all that well and I need to work on that and that would help me lose some of this extra weight I am carrying around. I am going to work on that.

8) I really want to go back to school. I love school! I love learning new things and feeling like I am doing something with my life. So I have decided that I am going back to school in the fall.

9) I wish I was more crafty and creative. I look at other people's blogs and see all the cool things they make and it makes me jealous. I know I have a creative part of me I am just having trouble finding it inside of me. That is something I need to work on.

10) I should be doing work right now but instead I am working on this post and since I can't think of anything else I am going back to work.

I would like it if all my friends would do this on their blogs because I love learning new things about people. So do it!

Birthday Shout out!!

The 25th was my blogs 1st birthday! Happy birthday blog. At first the idea of a blog was silly to me and I did not update it much. I got talked into the whole blog thing by friends, thanks Tracy and Amber.....over this past year I have come to love you blog and really enjoy you. Happy birthday and I am sure there will be many more to come!

No one's going to rain on my parade today......

I am in the best mood today! There is not really any particular reason for my chipper mood, it's just a good dasy I guess! Really it's the little things that are making me happy today like the rain, yummy warm tea, a really wonderful salad for lunch, my happy little girl, and getting things done. I just wanted to share my good mood with those in the blogging world so there I shared.

I wanted to share a funny thing Luke said before we went to dinner last night. We went to dinner at La Frontera last night and every time we go there with Luke there is always police eating there....well we always tease Luke and tell him the police are after him and that is why they are there....so last night as we pull in the parking lot Luke says "I think when I had to get stitches in my chin they put a microchip in there so the police always know where I am." What a crazy imagination that kid has. I just thought it was a funny and paranoid thing to say..made me laugh. Kids!

And on that note I will leave you with a picture of that silly boy!

Happy Earth Day!

Today is Earth day! I have always loved Earth Day, when I was a kid we would always do really exciting things on this day at school one year we even planted a tree at my school and it is still there today. So this Earth day I have decided I need to do some little things to help our Earth. First I have decided to start bringing a bowl to work to eat my morning oatmeal in instead of using a Styrofoam cup and throwing it away, next I have decided to bring a reusable water bottle to work too. They are just little things, but I think that it is the little things that count. I have been using my canvas bags at the grocery store for a few years now and I actually have a big collection of bags to use now. So show the Earth how much you love it by doing something for it! YEAH for Earth!

Hiho hiho it's back to work I go

Today is my first official day back to work. My time off flew by....I can't believe how fast three months can go by. I thought it would be really hard to come back to work but it really hasn't been that bad. I fought back tears when I dropped little Addy cakes off today. I think this is going to be good and it is nice to have some adults to talk to again. I guess I missed all my friends at work more than I realized. And another plus is that I will have money again this last month has been kind of rough. So all and all things aren't that bad, but ask me again in a week and we will see.

Just a few photos......

Thoughts for today

Why am I so grumpy today? I really have no reason to be, but I keep snapping at Shane. Ahhhhh!

My cat keeps drinking out of the fish bowl...Is this safe? He doesn't even know there is a fish in the bowl he just likes to drink out of the fish bowl instead of his water dish.

I can't believe I have to go back to work in like 10 days! I am so depressed about it. :(

I am excited for Easter I love to eat ham and Addy has a cute new dress to wear!

And finally I am jealous that Luke gets to go to California with his mom. I want to go a vacation.

Holy Crap!

Yesterday was a nice sunny day outside! It was wonderful...a little chilly but still good. So of course since it was a nice day Lucas was playing outside. He was riding his scooter around and playing games. He was outside riding his scooter and all the sudden I here "DAD IT'S in my throat it's stuck in my throat" well lucas was sucking on a piece of hard candy and it got lodged in his throat. Shane picked him up and ran him into the house as fast as he could and asked me what to do. I panicked and said I DON'T KNOW. Well Shane hit Luke's chest and the candy came flying out. We all should around and hugged each other for what seemed like forever. I was shaking so bad I have never been so scared in my life. I was so glad he was okay and I told him please don't ever do that again and he laughed and said okay I won't. GEEZ.

Yeah baby

I just wanted to tell everyone how happy I am. Addy slept through the night last night. It is a great day in parenthood when you sleep through the night, but I did wake up this morning thinking "is she still alive" and had to run in her room and check on her.
