What was I doing 10 years ago?
I was living in Heber, AZ and still in High School- the carefree life. Life was so much easier back then, even though it was close to the end of the school yr and probably around finals time, that was still a simpler time than adult life. :) Although I love my life now, and don't think I'd really want to go back to being 16 again.

5 Things on my To-Do list:
1. Get ready for the baby.
2. Have a baby- in some ways I am already so anxious for that.
3. Loose weight after the baby is born- I'm tired of feeling huge.
4. Work on getting yet another baby to sleep through the night- didn't I just do that?
5. Get Will potty trained. I know he has to be ready, and I think he is, but am I? I'm a little scared and nervous.


5 Snacks I Enjoy: (Ready for the response from the prego woman?)
1. Brownies and Ice Cream (that's just what I've been craving the last couple days, haven't had it... yet.)
2. Any snack that you can have milk with.
3. Orange julius
4. Chips
5. Can't think of too many... I wish I ENJOYED the healthy snacks but I don't eat them as often as I should. Actually I'm not much of a snack person at all.. I like REAL meal food better.

5 Places I have lived: (earliest to most recent)
1. Mesa, AZ
2. Pinon, AZ (Navajo Reservation)
3. Heber, AZ
4. Apache Junction, Arizona

What would I do if I were suddenly a billionaire?
A Billionaire- wow! Usually the question is millionaire- you can do a lot more with a billion dollars, so the list could go on and on.... Well, I'd pay off all our debt and then buy a nice house (I still wouldn't want to live in a mansion, just a nice house that's big enough for our family) I'd give away our current house to somebody. Buy a house for my parents and my inlaws to live in here in Mesa so they could stay here anytime they want and maybe even be winter visitors. Give each one of our family members a big chunk of change. Set aside a big portion for Billy's school and to live off of during that time. Set aside some for retirement, and the kids schooling, then donate the rest. What a dream. That would be cool.

What are 5 jobs I have had?
1. Busser at a Steakhouse
2. Cashier at Grocery Store (the only one in town)
3. Mervyns- customer service/ Audit
4. Rural Metro- Credit disputes
5. Stay at home Mom

What are 5 things you don’t know about me?
1. A lot of you might not have known I lived on the Res until now.
2. I used to be so painfully shy.
3. I used to play the violin, and was concert mistress (the lead) my Jr yr. (Don't ask me how many people were actually in the orchestra though... ok I'll tell you.. 8- now that fact doesn't seem quite as impressive huh?)
4. I "waited" for Billy while he was on his mission.
5. During the time I "waited" for him I went on over 100 dates; one weekend I went on 3 dates each with a different person.

I now tag: Rachel, Summer, and Brittany

Will's birthday

Will turned 3 last week! We went to the zoo on his birthday, and I thought I'd finally post the pictures Billy took that day. It's funny, if you notice there are three pictures where he is really interested and excited about something other than the animals. The first thing he really got excited about was the statue of a frog! haha. Then there's a picture of him admiring some wood, and another where he's sitting in this little indention in a rock along a pathway. There was nothing in the window it was just for show; it's just funny how we thought he'd get really excited about the animals, but he probably liked that really cool log just as much. We did have a good time though. It was my first time to the zoo as well and it was amazing to see all the animals. As you can see there was a monkey that was just posing for Billy- it was so cool. Afterward we had cake and ice cream at home. Will was really excited to blow out his candles, that was the first thing he said in the morning- he was talking about how he was going to blow out the candles. He has loved all of his new presents too! It's so nice to have so many new things for him to do and to play with. He is a good boy. He has been so nice and well mannered lately (in general- he still has his other moments). He is saying please and thank you now without us telling him, and he even said excuse me the other day after he burped without me asking him too. He was also really nice the other day when we were playing with his pretend food. I said "Will, can you cut this up for me?" And he said "Sure I can" Then he said "Here you go" and when I gave him some food he said thank you. He was just being so nice! We love our little boy.

Hearts content

This morning I was asking Will to come over to me for a diaper change (yes, he’s still in diapers), and I had to ask him a couple times. Then I said, “Come here Will. Let’s change your diaper and then you can play to your heart’s content.” And he came over to me and kept on repeating that phrase “I pay heart’s content.” Over and over again which was funny enough in itself, but then he said “You go heart’s content wif me.” I just laughed and laughed! I guess he thought that was a real place. Haha.

Fun in a box

Who would've thought a cardboard box would be so much fun? They played in this "house" for a long time.
