Re: Poll (bored)
1. DH is home this week. Might go visit family in Michigan.
2. WHY DS doesn't listen. WHY does he insist on tormenting his sister? UGH I'm going to go bald before they're in Middle school.
3. I just get tired of the "Shes so small!" comments. But everyone always says "WOW they're from the same parents for sure!"
4. Can't find the sandals I just got.
5. I'm simple like this
6. Trail mix!
1) What are you most looking forward to this week? Going to dinner with one of my very best friends and meeting her new boyfriend that she is so head over heels for...can't wait!
2) What's on your mind right now? E's birthday party and what to serve everyone to eat that day.
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO. Everyone always comments on her hair and how much they love her curls. I love it because she always says "Thanks" back to them. Super cute!!!
4) Show us some fun spring/summer shoes you've gotten this season. I have been boring and only bought some flip flops this year.
5) If you had to buy a new dress for a casualish, outdoor wedding, what would you pick out? (Okay, this is self-serving...but virtual shopping is always fun)
I really like this dress...cute and on sale!
6) What's your favorite item at Trader Joe - just one must have please! This is hard picking just one! Right now my new favorite is the meatless corn dogs. They are yummy and not horrible for you and do contain some good soy protein.
1. Art Fair, seeing friends and family
2. too much work, very stressed
3. I got a dirty look when I was hauling Jake around and my shirt covering my pg belly got pushed. Jake likes to point to random men and say "Dada" yesterday it was the teenage boy behind us at Target who was buying condoms. He just laughed, very embaressed.
4. I have some new New balance cross trainers, probably not what you had in mind.
5. I would go with a skirt and sweater set or if I was skinny again, my strapless Ann Taylor one
6. Lemon Curd. It is so good on pancakes with cut-up strawberries.
1. Our Deadilest Catch/game night. We have a new game called Quelf, it's hysterical!
2. Getting my shrub clippings up so I can shower. Just came in to cool off for a few.
3. When we got out to eat servers are enamored by how polite Lily is. She says thank you when they bring/refill drinks and food.
4. My mom has plantar facitis (sp) she gave me all the cute stuff she got on clearance last summer right before she couldn't wear many shoes.
5. ??? Can I look when I can't smell how sweaty I am?
6. Never been, I keep planning to go when we are on the northside but always forget.
1) What are you most looking forward to this week?
My dr appointment on Wednesday
2) What's on your mind right now?
Aidan, nugget and lunch
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO.
He was probably taken away because he had more damage then what you could handle. Ummmmmmm I could handle anything if that meant Aidan was still with us.
4) Show us some fun spring/summer shoes you've gotten this season.
No shoes
5) If you had to buy a new dress for a casualish, outdoor wedding, what would you pick out? (Okay, this is self-serving...but virtual shopping is always fun)
I don't wear dresses
6) What's your favorite item at Trader Joe - just one must have please!
I don't shop at Trader Joe
1) What are you most looking forward to this week? Compared to last week, we're relatively calm this week. And I am SO looking forward to that!
2) What's on your mind right now? Whether to finish my PhD, and if so, how. Whether the killer death pain foot pain from yesterday means that I shouldn't work out today. Whether to run to Joanns for some flannel or just use the doesn't-quite-match stuff that I have here. Two of these are important. One is fun.
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO. Other than a few "WOW, you've really gotten huge!" I don't have anything yet
4) Show us some fun spring/summer shoes you've gotten this season. I picked up a pair of killer gladiator sandals with 3" heels at the beginning of the summer, but I can't find a picture of them. The 3" heel is my concession to being pregnant.
5) If you had to buy a new dress for a casualish, outdoor wedding, what would you pick out? (Okay, this is self-serving...but virtual shopping is always fun)
I have a maternity dress I'm making that I'd just finish off more quickly. Probably no help for you 
6) What's your favorite item at Trader Joe - just one must have please! Right now, dark chocolate covered pretzels, eaten at the same time as a bite of dried apricot.
Mother's Day, 2011
Mother's Day, 2011
1. A lot of things! The melting pot tonight, my doctor's appointment on wednesday, going to Gatlinburg this weekend for my cousin's wedding. And I just got done seeing my cousin's baby.
2. That I really want some ice cream or a reese cup, but I'm trying to be good since I'll be having delicious fondue tonight.
3. Ellie wasn't with me, but I got asked at the hospital today when I asked where the maternity ward was at if I was here for myself and if I needed a wheelchair! lol.
4. I ordered these to go with my new dress for my cousin's wedding.
5. I just got this dress for my cousin's wedding from Target. It's maternity though, so it doesn't help you much. haha
6. I've never been to Trader Joe's before.
1) What are you most looking forward to this week? Hmmmm...I guess I'm looking forward to leaving for our trip, even though I'm stressed about it!
2) What's on your mind right now? Brian's job situation (up in the air), our trip (stressful, long ride in the car)
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO.I honestly can't think of anything right now. Almost everyone, though, who stops to "talk to" Ella will say something along the lines of "Look at those eyes!". People often think she's just super surprised. Nope, her eyes are that open all the time.
4) Show us some fun spring/summer shoes you've gotten this season. OMG, I just remembered I bought some brown espadrille peep toes that I totally forgot about. I don't have a pic because I don't remember where I got them.
5) If you had to buy a new dress for a casualish, outdoor wedding, what would you pick out? (Okay, this is self-serving...but virtual shopping is always fun)
Love this one from BR:
6) What's your favorite item at Trader Joe - just one must have please! The thing I buy every time I'm there is wasabi peas. YUM.
1) What are you most looking forward to this week?
The weekend. My cousin will be home from DC and we're hitting up our hometown fair and then having a cookout on Saturday night.
2) What's on your mind right now?
I have a ton of work and I'm having anxiety about getting it all done.
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO.
Tyson is the man of 1000 faces and while we were at a birthday party yesterday the guests couldn't stop watching him make all of his funny and cute faces.

I have only bought flip flops, but I bought the same ones that Sarah did. The dark pink and brown combo is pretty fun. I really like them!
5) If you had to buy a new dress for a casualish, outdoor wedding, what would you pick out? (Okay, this is self-serving...but virtual shopping is always fun)
This dress is pretty cute.
6) What's your favorite item at Trader Joe - just one must have please!
I honestly haven't shopped at TJs in so long, but I do like their cheap wine.
I'm just going to answer #5 -- I bought this dress and wore it to my BIL's wedding this weekend. I received several compliments. My husband gave me the best compliment - "It's beautiful, hot and cute and you can wear it for several things, dress it up/down, etc..." I'm like, "I know, right?"
It's expensive, but I love it.
1. My days off Wed and Thurs. Spending time with my boys.
2. Food! I am starving!
3. Being a twin mom, I get many rude comments. I have started to be creative to answer many of the sames ones we get asked over and over. Landon is a little flirt, so he gets comments all.the.time about his smile.
4. Honestly, I have not bought myself anything this summer. I got a pair of flip flops at ON for a dollar.
5. Something like this...
6. We do not have one on the SS, but I like their sponges. Boring I know.
LOL Andrea. That's hilarious.
Krista - How cool about the dress. I'd love to see a pic when you're done.
1) What are you most looking forward to this week?
Hump Day - my week gets much easier after Wednesday AM.
2) What's on your mind right now?
Work stuff - I have so many balls up in the air right now and juggling is becoming fairly impossible. I'm a little stressed.
3) Tell us something cute, funny, or rude that someone has said to you when you've been out in public with your LO.
- I put a bow in her hair pretty much everytime we go out, so we get a lot of comments about how people used to glue/tape their bows onto their child's head.
- A woman on the plane yesterday thought she was 18 months old. I know she's a chunky baby, but come on.
4) Show us some fun spring/summer shoes you've gotten this season.
Interesting, I just realized that I haven't bought shoes in a realllly long time. Well, with the exception of a new pair of bronze and a new pair of black ON flipflops.
I did buy these a couple months ago...
