Ten on Tuesday!

1. What is your favorite decor item in your house?
My Christmas Tree.

No, I do not have a Christmas tree up outside of the season. I'm quite strict about this. Advent only.

But, when my Christmas tree is up - I love it!

I also like our baker's rack and kitcen table. I realize this isn't "decor"...but, I like it!


2. What is your favorite hair product?
I like my Tresseme Hairspray. Nothing too exciting. But, it gets the job done. I don't invest much is hair products.

I also like my Loreal hair dye. Yes, I dye my hair. I'm that cool.

3. Are you a good dancer?
Hold on one second, let me think about that one.....

Ahhhahahahha.

Hahahahhaha..

No. I am as sqaure as a wooden box. I enjoy dancing. But, I shouldn't enjoy it - for I'm terrible at it. I did do ballroom in college- but...that's the extent.

4. You get some good news, who’s the first person you call?
My Mom. And Ryan - but Ryan is usually immediately involved in my good news.

5. Would you rather take pictures, or be in pictures?
Taking pictures. I often don't enjoy being in pictures either. ESPECIALLY the "random shots".. You know...when you're around those "picture people" who LOVE taking pictures of the "action". Iy-yi-yi.

Ryan used to work with this guy, who's wife does this whenever they're in public. I always try avoiding the room she's in -- so I don't get random shots of me itching my nose. Or taking a bite of food. That's not candid.

Awkward city.
6. What is your shoe style?
Either very neat shoes. No open toes. I like my toe to be rounded. With a heel.

Or Mizuno running shoes :)
7. How often do you eat out?
Our rule is once every 2 weeks. (Unless we're traveling or something).
8. If someone has food in their teeth, do you tell them?
Yes, but I'm awkward about it. Even with my own husband - I will like pull him in a separate room and whisper it to him. And appologize.
9. Do you fold your underwear?
Absolutely. I might as well iron my fricking underwear.
10. Milk, dark, or white chocolate?
Dark. Yum.

I thought you and Ryan did a smash up job of dancing at your wedding so don't be too hard on yourself! I used to love waltzing but after years of not dancing, because your Dad doesn't like it, I have lost the touch! It's sort of like playing the piano - must practice, practice, practice!

I am posting this on both Lisa and your blogs today. Your great grandmother (our Grandma Veit) ironed her scrub rags. Honestly. And starched her pillow cases. I remember thinking my ears would be scratched when I stayed over night at her house! So, there may be something about neat laundry that carries down through the generations. Do you think?

You are a WONDERFUL dancer! I think video of your first dance would be a Youtube sensation if anyone ever posted it! ;)

I apologize because I am one of those "candid" picture takers...I promise not to post any of you scratching your nose on facebook! lol

What is your color?

Green My favorite color ever! I have to control myself to not purchase too many green things. If I had no control, my house would be green. My kitchen would be lime-themed. With greenery everywhere. My bathrooms would be green. My bedroom would be green. You would all feel nauseated-green after entering my home. (So I don't have a green-themed home) Many things I love are green, such as: Spinach (I eat it a minimum twice a day usually) My weding color was green. (clover green) Limes (I have at least one time a day) Grass. I love the feel of grass, especially since I see it so rarely in AZ (except in my neighborhood that has amazing landscapers with grass-galore) Palm trees. Any tree. Christmas trees. I love Christmas Green Beer. I think the green beer on St. Patty's Day tastes better. My favorite color of eyes. When I was in 9th grade, I so badly wanted to get green contacts. But they made me keep my brown eyes. Diet Mountain Dew (my guilty pleasure) Granny Smith

8 Months

 Well, I missed month 1-8. But it is never too late to begin, right? Here is a recap of Maddy at 8 months. (I'm totally stealing this idea from my sister, Lisa. I thought it was so neat that she recaps her son's favorites and happenings every month)   How am I sleeping? Better than I was - but not as good as my peers. It also depends on if I'm teething. Last week, her 2nd tooth was poking through - so she was awake 3 times.  No matter how much I let her cry it out, I cannot seem to cut down her feedings. When I go in there - she is literally pulling at my shirt with her mouth wide open. So clearly she's hungry.  She eats 2 times/night and luckily goes right back to sleep. It is what it is. What am I eating? While we have had breastfeeding and bottle refusal struggles - I am so glad that taking to food as been relatively smooth. We are doing baby led weaning, and Maddy really enjoys most every food I've given her.  Her favorite foods are scrambled eggs, apples, and c

Currently - May edition

   I haven't blogged much - but the last time I did one of these, Maddy was 9 months old. It's really fun looking back on the things that were "stressors" to me at that time. Prior to that - my currently post was a pregnancy edition.  So here goes May 2022. Maddy is almost a 15-month old and summer has set ablaze here in Tucson.   Reading :  I really wish I had a better answer for this one, but I have not been the best about reading lately. The only book I'm reading is "How to talk to your kids so they'll listen and listen so they'll talk". It is really good. Most of the book is geared more to school-aged kids, in my opinion. But it highlights some great communication skills with children to help them trust you as a parent to be open and honest. Eating: All the smoothies. It has been getting really hot here - and every day when we get home from our stroller run I make a smoothie for Maddy with whole milk, Fage, and fruit - and then a smoothie for
