8. A fun fact about yourself! I broke my femur when I was 3 really badly. I had to scoot around with this big cast that weighed more than I did. Because of that I'm insanely fast at crawling.I use to always win crawling contests at our camp in grade school, haha. Sometimes when I get wasted I show off my amazing crawling speed.
4. Joined way back when...actually when I was pregnant with my oldest, but I never posted then. That was 2004! But then years went by and I still rarely posted until this LO was born in 2011.
4. Married since 8/2/03...ten years this summer!
5. Kinda, but prob not how much.
6. 8/30/11
7. pg due May 13
8. I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree and minor in Art History. I took Underwater Basket Weaving for credit in college. No joke (but it's probably not what you think it is, sorry)
