8 Things

Posted on May 30th, 2009.

I was tagged by my friend Shelly to answer these questions.  You can check out her blog if you want to see her answers.  She also has 3 boys like me!  But I think now she needs a little girl too!

So here goes!

8 Things I’m Looking Forward To:
1 ) Getting back to my “pre-baby” size
2 ) Playing with the kids and swimming a lot this summer
3 ) Date night with my husband (I guess we should plan one)!
4 ) Growing in my relationship with the Lord
5 ) Putting a swimming suit on London for the first time! (silly, I know. . . but her little body will look so cute!)
6 ) Going back to Alaska someday!
7 ) Taking the kids to the beach for the first time (again, someday!)
8 ) School being out and not getting up before 7am (I can always hope!)

8 Things I Did Yesterday:
1 ) Took my son to have staples removed from his head
2 ) Snuggled with #3 (aka G-Money) a lot!
3 ) Went for a ride with my husband, the kids and my Mom through “the hood” to pick up a check from one of his clients.
4 ) While in said “hood” one son suddenly had to use the bathroom terribly and thought he might die from it.  I then listened to him cry (and sound like he was in labor) for the entire 12 minutes it took us to drive out of the hood and find a non-hood restroom.
5 ) Upon arriving at the non-hood gas station my son was then terrified to get out of the car.  His face was splotchy and he was covered in tears and sweat.  I had to carry him in crying uncontrollably.  I’m sure the customers and employees of the gas station thought I had kidnapped this child and was forcing him into the restroom with me.  After taking care of his business he wanted me to carry him out of the restroom to the car.  I finally discovered that there was a mannequin at the front of the store that he was afraid of!
6 ) As I walked outside headed back to my car I noticed there were two police cars on either side of my car!  I was sure someone had called to have me arrested!
7 ) I found out the police were just there for a drink and a car wash!
8 ) I discovered it’s not a good idea to feed your family Taco Bueno before driving into the hood!

8 Things I Wish I Could Do:
1 ) Dance!
2 ) Sing
3 ) Just do what God wants me to do ALWAYS!
4 ) Take away the financial stress from my husband!
5 ) Be a better wife, mommy and person
6 ) Cook AND Enjoy it!
7 ) Be more organized
8 ) Go to the beach this summer
