Random Facts...

About me!

I posted this on facebook under the "About Me" section, but thought I'd post it here too since it pretty much sums up me- what makes me tick, what makes me fall apart, what makes me smile and what pulls me together. I added a few more here though- facebook cut me off after about 3 full paragraphs...

Two January's ago my life changed forever when the word "pregnant" popped up on a HPT.

Last October, the little blip on the ultrasound screen turned into my beautiful daughter Maeve.

I have been married for 2 and a half years. There are tough times and there are wonderful times... heck that's life though.

I have chronic anxiety.

I have always considered myself a Christian, but just recently really started getting into His word.

Days that are especially rough with my anxiety are often healed by a Bible passage or a quick prayer.

I've learned that God always provides (even though it feels like we're struggling) and He always gives me my next breath.

My soul longs for the beach, ocean, sunshine and warmth.

I am inspired by my sisters, my mom and my grandma.

I love Target.

Vacations are the best.

I have a weakness for sweets, wine and pizza.

I have an unnatural obsession with Disney World.

If I could, I would probably have 6 or 7 kids... but financially speaking its gonna be more like 3. :)

I am easily inspired by songs, quotes and books.

Adam Sandler frequents my dreams- you don't even wanna know. :) HAHAHA

Adam Sandler decided to attend my bachelorette party- although at the last minute was too intimated by all of us beautiful girls :)

I love soft sheets- the higher the thread count the happier I am.

Hot showers are my thing... I can take up to 5 in a day during the winter.

"50 First Dates" makes me cry every time (during the "I Love Lucy" song)

I regret 1 thing in life. And I am working hard to make amends with it.

I'd rather eat dessert than dinner.

I haven't had caffeine in 5 years.

Turbulence on airplanes makes me have to go to the bathroom. (who'd think it?)

If I could, I'd live in sweat pants and t-shirts.

I like Christmas movies all year long- especially "Christmas with the Kranks"

I get bronchitis yearly.

Thanks to my dear friend Jules, I am addicted to blogging! :)

Sometimes I listen to sad songs just to make myself cry... (we all need a good cry!)

I'm a really good cook- really I am! My specialty is baked goods: pies, cookies, cakes, etc.

I want a tropical fish tank so badly... Ryan says no.

I hate cats. I love dogs- big dogs.

I have been to Hawaii twice and Ryan and I have a 5 year plan to go back. (that puts us at 3 more years till we are "Maui-zed" again)

Counting Crows music depresses me but its one of my fave. bands and I listen to it when I'm down...which makes me feel even more down... but it works.

Adam Duritz waved at me.

I love roller coasters but hate spinning rides.

I have PVC's (Pre-ventricular contractions or heart palps)

I still call my dad if I have questions about my car or insurance or anything like that...

No matter how "naughty" Maeve is being, as soon as she starts to smile and coo, my heart melts and she can do no wrong.

4 years ago I had sworn off marriage and kids until the age of 30. haha... how God works!

I think Kate, from "Jon & Kate plus 8" is a spoiled brat. And she irritates me to no end yet I tune in every monday...

Breakfast is my favorite- I could eat it 3 times a day everyday... and often I do.

Laundry is last on my list- I hate it and usually leave it for Ryan to do... :)

The floors and kitchen however, are obsessions of mine- I love to sweep and swiffer!

My heart has been broken once.

But my heart is so full now, that its completely whole.
