Okay, here's my Day 1 - 10 Facts About Me!

1.  I like my house to be super clean, however, with two little boys and a big boy, I'm learning to let go (because I don't really have a choice) and take a deep relaxing breath with every little hand print on the wall, crumb on the floor, sippy cup spill on the carpet, artwork on the wall, etc. 

2.  My favorite holiday is Christmas Eve.  I love the anticipation of Christmas morning, especially now that I have little ones.

3.  I really don't like to talk on the phone.  I would much rather visit in person.

4.  I don't like jeans.  I think they are uncomfortable (even when I'm at my thinnest weight).  I even change my kids into sweats for their naps!

5.  I love being outdoors.  I'm not really big on spiders, bugs, or snakes, but I love the warm sunshine, the breeze, the smell of grass, the openness...

6.  As soon as I first met my husband I fell in love with him.  He was so nice, sincere, and really cute (and he doesn't know he's cute)!

7.  I love spending time with my family, but also really enjoy my ladies' (mom's) nights out. 

8.  My senior year in high school, I skipped school so much I almost didn't graduate.

9.  Being a stay at home mom is HARD.  I am so thankful I found a fantastic mom's group.

10.  I'm an internet junkie.  I could live without a TV, but DO NOT take away my internet!

Whew, that was hard...and I have 30 more to go???  :)
