10 Random Things

1. I love to eat sweet potatoes, but everytime I see a recipe that has sweet potatoes in chili or meat casseroles or in soup, I cringe! Yuck! I'll take my sweet potato plain or with some butter and brown sugar.
2. Kaia loves zucchini, or at least she swears she does, until I cook it and put butter on it. Then she refuses to eat it. That left me to eat an entire cooked zucchini by myself one evening.
3. I have a very short fuse these days. Just ask Dana. He tries to tease me only to see the smoke start to roll out from my ears. "I'm just teasing babe," is a phrase he's used a lot lately. I'm sure he's counting down the days til our boys come and I become somewhat normal again (with a good dose of antidepressants).
4. You could also ask Rocks about my short temper. I was ready to duct tape her mouth shut the other night when she wouldn't quit yipping and barking at Sampson. I settled for attaching her bark collar, it was the first night she wore it in over 2 weeks. I think she's in heat, and we really should get her fixed, but not with this weather.
5. Dana's job is going great, but the new schedule is kicking both our butts! We're getting up an hour earlier and while it's easy when it's once a week for a doctor's appointment in Seattle, it's tough to do every day.
6. Good news, we'll be able to get some sleep on our vacation on the coast. Bad news, we'll have to go through this adjustment all over again.
7. I cannot get enough of watching the video of Brendon and Bryce. I get to feel them all day (and all night) and see ultrasounds on a weekly basis, but seeing their little faces is just so much fun.
8. Mo is all boy now! He loves to burp and fart, and make sure we know it was from him. As long as he doesn't start doing that at church or the library, I'm totally ok with it.
9. Yes, I'm one of those moms. The standard of behaviour in public is much higher than the standard of behaviour at home. We should all be able to kick back and feel comfortable at home.
10. Our house is has stayed semi-clean. The bedrooms aren't in good shape, but the main living areas are liveable, and right now, that's all I ask for. See that extra hour in the morning is actually going to good use.
