    Lena's first trip down the slide!

     

     

    1.  Did you like high school? Why?  I loved it. I think it was mainly because of swimming, and I loved being a part of something and feeling successful.

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation? This is hard. Russia and Morocco were very interesting, but my favorite I think was Monte Carlo, Monaco.

    3. Favorite TV show? True Blood. (And a sadly close second would be The Challenge)

    4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have?  Since I am answering right now, I will say 1. That may change. No more than 2 for sure though.

    5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it? Janelle. My grandma's names are Janet and Stella, and that combined to Janelle.

    Okay, of course, post a picture of something fun from the week!

    And for the GTKY:

    1.  Did you like high school? Why? Yes for the most part. I was boy crazy, and I did well in school, so all in all usually made for a good day. Although I wasn't popular, so it definitely wasn't my favourite age by far.

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation? Australia, specifically around Melbourne, mostly because one of my best friends lives there so we were with her :)

    3. Favorite TV show? Hmmmm.... well I only watch Survivor and Grey's now, so Survivor?

    4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have? 2/3 - leaning more towards 3.

    5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it? Paul, yes, he was named after my dad who passed away 2 years ago.

    ETA: sorry, no pic!!

  • 1.  Did you like high school? Why?

    Not really. I went to a private school from out of my area. I didn't know anyone, so it was hard to make friends when everyone else grew up together. I became the captain of the state champions soccer team, so I made a lot of acquaintances but not a lot of friends.  I was also the pretty/nice girl that dated the loser drop outs, so that isolated me a bit too.

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation?

    Hawaii. North Shore of Oahu

    3. Favorite TV show?

    Revenge and Modern Family

    4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have?

    2 or 3 depending on how things pan out 

    5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it?

    Gwen. We wanted one syllable middle names for Piper. My cousin called me and thought I would like Glenn (as in Glenn Close). We had a bad cell phone connected and I thought he suggested Gwen. I loved it.

  • 1. ?Did you like high school? Why? Yes, I was involved in a lot of activities. I wasn't "popular", but I had a lot of friends. 2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation? Probably a South American cruise over one Christmas and New Years with just my grandmother. It was hundreds of old people and about 20 young adults. We would party all night after the old folk went to bed. 3. Favorite TV show? I hardly ever watch TV anymore. Like maybe an hour total each week. I can't remember the last time that I watched a full show. Maybe a Friends re-run last week. 4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have? I would love 4, but too late for that. Honestly, I am just hoping that I have at least 2. I would be so upset to imagine never being pregnant again. 5. ?What is LO's middle name? Any particular?significance, or did you and SO just like it? Mason Leon. He is the 8th generation of the first-born son having that as a middle name. EX's father that died the day he was born had that as a middle name, and EX has tha as a middle name.

  • 1.  Did you like high school? Why? No. I had a super clicky, arrogant neighborhood in high school, everyone had their own group of friends and that was that. Pretty much sucked if you were someone who tried to be friends with everybody.

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation? Australia

    3. Favorite TV show? Ghost Adventures

    4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have? 2-3

    5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it? Brynn. It's weird to say it, but there was no significance other than we wanted a one-syllable name since her other names were so long, and we thought it went beautifully with her first name.

  • 1. ?Did you like high school? Why? Yes and no. I spent freshman year at a public school which was awful. After that I got into home schooling and took classes at the local community college. I was able to finish 3 years in 2 and I got college credit.?

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation? I loved Las Vegas ?

    3. Favorite TV show? The Office seasons 1-4

  • 1.  Did you like high school? Why?

    Meh. Didn't love or hate it. I didn't really get into anything to make it fun. No sports, clubs, activities, etc. I had to work a lot and had two jobs at once for the entire last two years. Plus some babysitting. So, that was my main focus and priority. I like learning though, and would love to get back into some college classes.  

    2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation?

    Hawaii. Kona, on the Big Island. I love all the fun and crazy road trips we've taken, but none of them compare to Hawaii.

    3. Favorite TV show? Modern Family, Parks and Rec, trashy reality on Bravo, The Soup

    4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have?

    2 is ideal, 3 is tops. The third would be a surprise if it happened and someone would be getting surgery to prevent a 4th. 

    5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it?

    Opal. No real significance, we just liked it and it sounds good with her first name (Amelia). My husband is a geologist, so people assume it's related to that, but it's not. Although, if we did have another girl, I would probably do another middle name that is some sort of mineral/gem/stone so they would go together and we could all pretend it has more significance than was originally intended.

  • 1.  Did you like high school? Why?Not really, I was a bit of a troublemaker and I think I "tried" to hard to fit in and I wasn't really myself.  I was just trying to be what I thought other people wanted me to be.  I really didn't find myself till college.2. Where's the best place you've been on vacation?Vacation, hmmm, I think I have to honestly answer my parents house.  It's nice to go home, not living near any relatives is tiring.  It's nice to have my rents support with DD when we visit.  As far as destination travel, probably Panama. It was supposed to be a work trip but became a vacation.  I hung out at the spa and pool all day and it was all on the company.  I also got to see the famous red tide. 3. Favorite TV show? Futurama no question. 4. How many LOs do you plan to have/would ideally like to have? I want 2 but DH is thinking only 1. I hope her changes his mind in 2.5 years. I want them spaced at least 3-5 years appart.5.  What is LO's middle name? Any particular significance, or did you and SO just like it?Mae, none, her Nana's middle name is also Mae but that's not really why we chose it.  It just seemed to go best with her first name.  I just fit right.I can't post pictures tonight but I have some from dinner tonight I can post tomorrow.  We had baked beans.  :P
