I've Been Tagged

I haven't blogged in awhile because I have been so busy but my sister tagged me so I felt I had to do this.

BTW- Luke is doing okay. He turned 5 months today!

Here are the rules:
1~ Link to the person's blog who tagged you.
2~ Post these rules on your blog.
3~ List seven weird or random facts about yourself.
4~ Tag random people at the end of your post and link to them.
5~ Let every person know they have been tagged by posting a comment on their blog.

Now let's begin!

1~I, like my sister, am deathly afraid of worms but not parasitic worms (although those gross me out too). I am terrified of earthworms. I will not walk on a driveway if alive worms are on it. It makes me have a panic attack.

2~Since I am on fears I should inform you that I also have an irrational fear of elevators. Don't really know why. In fact, both of my fears developed later in my life. Kinda odd if you ask me.

3~I LOVED being in labor. I thought that it was the most awesome thing in the world. Actually, I would love to have another baby just so that I can be in labor again. Of course, only if I can have an epidural.

4~I help make money by doing sales calls for my husbands job. I can do it from home and it works out pretty well. I haven't made any sales yet but that is because I have only been doing it for a few days.

5~I have always wanted to be a figure skater. I don't really see that happening but maybe someday....

6~I google everything! If I experience the slightest twinge I think that I am about to die. FYI- never google stuff. Bad things usually result from it.

7~I am addicted to McDonald's cheeseburger and Wendy's Bacon Cheeseburgers. They are the best tasting most delicious tasting things on the whole wide planet. I can eat them till I puke. I think.....

There ya go. I don't really have anyone to tag so it ends with me! Yup, I like to break rules too :)

A Day Off

Yippee! Dan and I are finally getting a day off to go and enjoy our marriage. Our anniversary is Monday and so we are going to be driving up to Madison, Wisconsin to stay in a nice hotel downtown. Oh, you ask me how we can do this with a 4 month old? My awesome, kind, loving sister(love ya Sarah) is going to be taking him for the night. Believe me, that is quite possibly one of the nicest things she could ever do because the little guy is a pain at night.

Sarah has always had it easy with her kids so now she is getting a little taste of what I deal with every day of my life. Luke doesn't like to sleep and getting him to sleep is a big chore. He fights to the death and he believes in screaming too. Sometimes he will scream for an hour till he falls asleep. We have tried everything! We have fed him right before he lays down, given him baths, given him massages, we even tried reading to him. Nothing works! He hates to sleep. Did I mention that he still wakes up every 5-6 hours?

Anyways, since we will be "Lukeless" I intend to enjoy my night. I bought a gorgeous dress and Dan is going to take me somewhere nice to eat. I love fine dining and will use any reason to go. Of course on our anniversary I expect to be taken somewhere nice. We are going to see if we can find somewhere to go after we eat but I don't really know Madison so I guess we will have ot ask around and talk to our friends that live up there.

I am so excited though! I hoep to come back and be refreshed. I will be posting pictures whenever we get back and I will share with you all the joys of being childless again( I wouldn't trade LUke for anything though).

I'm Back!

So it has been awhile since I have blogged but I am back and I hope that I can keep it up for awhile.

My life has been crazy as of recently. December 14th my Grandfather passed away and that was really tough on me. I really loved him and I am going to miss in my life.

In fact, I really missed him last week because I spent almost a week in the hospital with Luke. I knew that my Grandpa would've called everyday to see how my little man was doing. Luke had RSV and we discovered that he has asthma. They can't actually say that he has asthma until he is 2 but it's what he has.

I chopped my hair! Here are some before and after pictures.

And here is a cute one of Luke in the hospital:


And lastly, Luke with his Christmas present from my mom.


I hope to be on more so look for more posts.

Sorry, I did 3!

Black Friday

My mother has always told me to NEVER go shopping the day after Thanksgiving. Well, this year I decided to not heed her advice and I went to the Woodfield mall which is just a few miles from my house to find an outfit for Luke. I couldn't believe what I had to go through!

First, it took me 45 minutes to find a parking spot. It was horrible! People were honking at me and being so mean. Come on folks, it's Christmas time here. Show a little compassion, I was raised in the sticks.

Then, I get into the mall and realized that I really had to pee. I mean, it was like pregnant have to pee. So I go to the middle of the mall and just stand there waiting in line for almost 20 minutes. I was dancing the whole time. The whole reason that it took forever is because there where only 2 stalls! Who plans a mall with only 2 stalls in center court.

So, by the time that I got to actually start shopping I had already been at the mall for 1.5 hours! It was crazy. Don't get me started on how pushy all the people there where. I hope I am not mean whenever I am an old lady.

Anyways, here are some pictures from this week. I have been going picture crazy.

All ready for Christmas

Update

My life has been just a little crazy lately and it is just now that I am getting to sit down and write a post. We are almost moved into our new place and I can't believe how much junk we own! Of course the way that we suddenly moved out of our last apartment made moving rather difficult.

Luke is officially 3 months old now! He has a youtube channel now too! It is www.youtube.com/musikchiqa. I am trying to post one video of him per day. I don't know if I can keep up with it or not but I am going to try.

I will be trying to get my memes going again but I need to have time to do that.

Wordless Wednesday

I can't believe that he is almost 3 months! It seems like I just had him.
