Random Fact About Yourself!
I've been on a magazine cover in India! :-) (I don't know. For some reason, people in India really like my writing.)
Mac and cheese lover!
That is really interesting!
I have always wanted to do this! My mom and I talked about it, but we would be the first team kicked off.
Before pregnancy, I remembered every time I had to be everywhere. I was never late for anything. I never had to write anything down. Pregnancy messed up my brain. If I don't write it down I am not going to remember. I made my 6 week appointment after Liam over the phone. After I hung up I went to write it down and within the 5 second time frame it took me to walk to the kitchen my mind had changed the time. Needless to say I showed up to my appointment 3 hours late... Too bad they never called to remind me I had an appointment or that I had missed it. An OBGYN office should know better when dealing with new mothers!
No flames here! I love the Jersey Shore too... I am also addicted to Teen Mom, Dance Moms and recently Toddlers and Tiaras... I have a problem

If I would've known how awesome it is, I would've started sooner, but I feel so blessed that I have no regrets.
