1. There are two things that never stay in the pantry very long…tortilla chips and Pop Tarts.

2. I have two pajama drawers. One of them never gets opened anymore.

3. It’s a mystery to me how someone can love grilled cheese sandwiches so much that they’d eat one for every meal and then one day, just decide they don’t like it anymore! I think Nate just likes to hassle me!

4. I told Matt recently that I would like it if he’d say “Thank you” more often for what I do around the house and with the kids. He said, “You don’t tell me thank you for going to work everyday.”

5. Whenever Matt asks me to make a decision about something and I do, he tries to talk me out of it as a method to make sure I really know what I want…
I HATE IT!!!

6. When eating out, I don’t like to be the one to make the decision about where to go.

7. Is it possible for a 7 year old to have an official ‘Man Cold?’

8. Sometimes it seems like Gabe has to say “Mom” a certain number of times a day. He may not even need anything. He just says it. It doesn’t matter if I answer or not!

9. I drink a lot of water. My goal is to drink my body weight divided in half, in ounces of water everyday…and just in case you’re wondering, that’s more than 64 ounces! But, there are some days that I can’t get enough water. Putting my head under the faucet seems like a better idea than drinking it from a glass.

10. It’s some kind of Murphy’s law that my children don’t sleep in on the weekends. But on school days, I have to DRAG them out of bed! The good news is that no matter when they go to bed, they still get up at the same time.

11. I have yet to find a sports bra for a woman of my cup size that actually keeps my girls in place. I know one must exist!

12. Apparently, you can’t cut my no-bake cookie recipe in half…unless you want to eat them with a spoon (which is still good, by the way)!

13. My least favorite thing is when people don’t follow through with what they say they will. For example...the tile guy was supposed to be done today with our bathroom shower, but he explained to me that he has to lay the tile and then grout 24 hours later. Didn’t he know that when before?

14. Gabe consistently says he’s not hungry and when I withhold snacks from him, he still doesn’t eat at meals. Contrary to popular belief (by my husband), I still don’t think I’m mean.

15. I could easily weigh 400 pounds…I love to eat and I LOVE to be lazy!

16. I think the best part of being pregnant is that you don’t have to suck your stomach in. I wish I could be pregnant all of the time, just for that reason!

17. When I’m in a hurry, I get clumsy and probably take longer than if I had just taken my time!
