So, it's been a month already. I'll get around to things eventually, see?
A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning. B. Each player answers the questions about themselves. C. At the end of the game the player tags 5 people, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment letting them know they've been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
10 years ago: I was preparing to get married. This October will be our 10th wedding anniversary, so needless to say I was in love . I was substitute teaching and waiting tables at T.G.I.Fridays, which is where I met me beloved.
5 things on my to-do list today:
1) Clean the kitchen floor.
2) Play a game with Evelyn and Charlie.
3) Fix the valence in my bathroom (I hung my toile sideways so the people are lying down!).
4) Read with Joey and Evelyn.
5) Clean the playroom.
Snacks I enjoy: Chocolate anything, especially with nuts. Tea and/or coffee. Chips and salsa.
I would do if I were suddenly a billionaire: Pay off our debt and all the debt of our family and friends. Go on a vacation...a big one with the whole family (ours not extended!). Hire a housecleaning service and a nanny. The nanny wouldn't be replacing me, he/she would be here while I am here just to help.
3 of my bad habits: 1) Eating when I'm upset. 2) Feeling guilty for everything. 3) Not sending out birthday/anniversary/celebration cards. I do some but I'm not as good as I should be.
5 places I have lived: Oak Grove, MN, East Bethel, MN, Coon Rapids, MN, Bloomington, MN, Hardin, MT. These are the most recent.
5 jobs that I have had: Teacher (school), teacher (piano), waitress, retail sales, my first job ever...Little Caesar's Pizza Pizza.
5 things people don't know about me:
1) I taught on an Indian Reservation in MT.
2) I can wiggle my eyes.
3) I thought I was going to marry my college sweetheart.
4) I have always wanted a large family (they're not all surprises!)
5) I honestly don't enjoy breastfeeding like I think I should. I do enjoy it at times, but I'm so busy I just wish someone else could give the baby a bottle so I can get some other things done sometimes.
Whew, done!~
I tag Julie!

Illness and rash
I know it's been a while. I think a new baby will do that to you. Mary Margaret is a wonderful baby. She's smiling and sleeping through the night and is such a cutie. She's got dimples, just like Charlie. My husband and I both have dimples and I have seven kiddos, only two of them got the dimples. I love dimples...they're so kissable.
I really wish I could post pictures. Hopefully I will be able to again soon. The way our computers work, my husband has everything on his computer because it is constantly being backed up since he works at home and needs to make sure that everything is good. So, we have all of our pictures on his computer. I only have a few and I think everyone has already seen the few that I have. Oh well, someday I'll be computer saavy enough to post more pictures.
Life here is drudging along after 2 weeks of illness. Six of us had strep throat and I, of course, had it the worst. It was so bad that I couldn't swallow or talk. Thank goodness we all got medicine and are doing much better, but now there is some sort of virus going around. My poor Joey woke up with a rash today also and I fear he is allergic to the antibiotic that he's been taking. And, since today is Sunday, he'll have to go to urgent care, which I HATE. You have to wait and wait and wait until you are seen by a doctor who is in a hurry.
We've seen signs of spring lately. The weather has been in the upper 40's even getting to 51 once. Tonight, however, is a prediction of snow. Too bad. Just yesterday Evelyn was commenting on how she could see grass in our yard. It will mean that the Easter egg hunt will definately be indoors this year. Only one week until Easter.
That's all I've got for today. I know it's not much and kind of boring, but I'm just trying to get my life back in order with a 9 week old. My house is a disaster so it's a cleaning day for sure.
