Five Question Friday!

1. Where did you meet your spouse and did you instantly know it was love?

     I met my hubby at a concert! Three friends and I drove 2 hours to watch a band and make a weekend trip of it. When we walked in my hubby spotted me, we started talking, exchanged numbers,and  dated long distance for a year, before I moved to where he was after I graduated.

I don't think it was instantly love, but definitely instantly interested :)

2. What is your favorite room in your house?

     Probably my bedroom... more specifically in my bed! It is where I run when it's cold, when my favorite show is on, when I want to be lazy, and most importantly when I want to snuggle with hubby and Baby G!

3. Can you wiggle your ears?

     Um, going to have to say no to this one. Definitely not that talented!

4. What is your evening ritual?

    Right now?? Feed Baby G, change Baby G, Daddy's home--say hi, feed Baby G, change Baby G, Make dinner, Feed Baby G, ...... oh you get it!


But sadly this will change soon (and get a little crazier) when I go back to work Boo!

5. How many hours of sleep do you need to function?

     To function... probably 6. Would I like to request...about 10, and not from like 7 to 5, more like 10 to 8 :)

I am SO excited!!

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills finale is about to come on and I can barely contain myself!

Really!! Aren't you so excited!?!


I knew you were!
We really should all get together and have housewives get togethers because, come on, every season is awesome, isn't it???

I believe there are angels amoung us...

...sent down to us from somewhere up above!

And I bet all these people would agree!


I got this in an email titled

Luckiest people on Earth!

I'm linking up with:

It's the little things

that make me happy!


Like my morning cup of decaf Joe!

My Mother's Love ring from James Avery!

Rainy days!!

and fountain Cokes and junk food during road trips!

Girl weekends with my sisters and Mom!

and my hubby and sweet baby boy!

What are the "little things" that make you happy?

I have a confession

I have lied on this page.....


You might remember my earlier post where I said my little man had a hard time during naps.

Well, although that is all true

 there still is a lie!


 WHAT?? You might ask.....

It is right there for all to see....

Just look closely! No! Not the baby... the Onesie!

I am proud to say! This Onesie is a complete LIE!

This is because Baby G is a great sleeper at night!
I really do feel blessed. He sleeps from about 10 pm to 5:30 am
where he eats and falls back to sleep until around 7:30 and then
he eats and falls back to sleep until around 9!

Now I am keeping in mind that he is only 2 months old
and I am on maternity leave right now
So as I go back to work (BOO!) and little man goes to his sitter
this will probably change!

But I am really excited about it right now!

I think he is spoiling me!
Our second will probably bring me a BIG wake up call!
Literally! :)

I knew it, he's a genius!

Just listen for yourself!

He is just over a month old in this video and he can already say HI!
Really just listen to him at the very end!

Ok, so maybe I'm hearing things ;) but he is super sweet, isn't he!?!  
I took this video to send to his Daddy at work and he really wanted to talk to him! 
 Love this little man!

I am a proud Mommy!

Today my little man let me put him down twice without waking up and
he slept for longer than 15 minutes after being put down!

I know your probably thinking what is the big deal?!?


Well G-man (as hubby likes to call him) can take a great nap when being held!
See exhibit A and B...

Here is the problem... he hates to be swaddled! He immediately begins squirming and whining in frustration as he tries to pull his arms out from the blanket.

So he always startles himself awake when you try to lay him down. It doesn't matter how long you let him sleep before trying, he always wake. He can some times lay in a swing or bouncer but when flat he always wakes!

Well today (the day he turned 10 weeks old I will add) he finally did it!


I rocked him to sleep the first time, Daddy rocked him to sleep the second

we laid him down

stepped back

watched.....and watched.....


AND TADA!!!!
This is what we got! Not once.......

 But twice!!

(Outfit change was due to spit up)

And of course I had to take pictures like any proud Mama would do!! As you can see he loves to have his hands free ;)
