30 Day Blog Challenge and Friday randoms.

Day 25: Put your i-pod on shuffle, first ten songs. Confession: I hardly EVER listen to my i-pod. Like, never ever...unless I'm hosting a party or bring to a big weekend with my Bose player. I love music, I do. But, probably not as much as some people. I can't name songs, singers, lyrics...but I do love to sing:) If I'm just hanging out around the house, or getting ready...I have the TV on for "background" not music. I never invested in a nice connector for my i-pod to play in my car...mine is crappy and it is always static-y. So...I just listen to the radio. Not even satellite radio, just old school radio. And I jam out. Now when I am on vacation, playing on the lake, beach, by the pool, sitting on the dock, having friends over...etc. we always have the music on and I normally depend on my friends and family (my dad is a music nut!) to supply the i-pod tunes. But anyways, the point of this post...I'll just go with my ten random songs I know are on my i-pod:
1. The Star Spangled Banner
2. Mama's Song: Carrie Underwood
3. Grenade: Bruno Mars
4. Sittin on the dock of the bay: Otis Redding
5. Sweet Caroline (duh) : Neil Diamond
6. Summer of 69: Bryan Adams
7. Don't take the girl: Tim McGraw
8. Crash into me: DMB
9. Part Time Party Time Man: Part time Party time band
10. You don't have to call me darlin: David Allen Coe

So, last night was a super fun girls night. My wonderful friend Becca invited all of us over for dinner and a "just dance" party. It was my first time and now I'm obsessed. I sucked at some and then rocked it at others. I was actually sweating after doing some fast ones a few times in a row. Dinner, wine, friends, and competitive dancing, my new favorite girls night:)
2. I'm in a clothes funk. I just haven't had an interest in them lately which is totally unlike me. Maybe it's the time of year. I have pretty much only purchased my favorite pair of jeans ever, I mentioned them previously, from The Gap and a few random odds and ends since Christmas! GASP! That's been two whole months. Crazy, I tell ya.

3. Part of the reason for number 2 is because I have been in a home buying mood. Unfortunately, I haven't quite found the "job jackpot" where I'm raking in the dough...so, I can't do both. I tend to either go crazy buying clothes for a few months and not really buy anything for the house, or reverse. Lately, I've been focusing on making my rooms feel prettier. This is the newest thing on my radar...I think it would be perfect for my dining room. I've been loving some Ballard Designs lately!
4. I have received over 10 invitations in the past three weeks to showers, weddings, parties, etc. Gearing up for the busiest time of year, I can't wait!

5. We are off to my piece of paradise again this weekend.

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

25 weeks....yesterday!

Holy moly!!!! Baby Girl is doing some maaaayjah GROWING:) How far along? 25 weeks. Size of the baby? 13.5 inches and a pound and a half, grow baby girl, grow! Also known as an “average rutabaga”…um, okay. I’ll take Baby Center’s word for it. Maternity Clothes? Same as last week. My wardrobe is shrinking! I have bought several maternity tops, but most of them still look way too big. Still haven’t made the transition to maternity pants even though the bella band aggravates me sometimes. It’s the worst with my work pants, it constantly rolls down. I need to just suck it up and make the switch. Stretch Marks? None have appeared yet, still using the Palmer’s and Bio Oil a few times a week. Movement? Same. It’s so crazy how hard my belly gets at night, it is like she is all knotted up in one place. And the BELLY gets insanely BIG at night! Sleep? Eh…it’s been okay lately. I toss and turn a bunch. Food Cravings? Nothing crazy yet. I have been eating lots of peanu...
