KONG
Kong as in King Kong is Dallin's new nickname as he is in a very destructive phase right now. Here he is destroying my flower arrangement from the porch and hauling it down the driveway to the gutter. Sorry no face shots. Dallin is joining the witness protection program and he has decided he can no longer look at the camera

I can't believe it has been nearly a month since I have posted anything. Thanks for making me post Janae...haha.
10 years ago: I was in my senior year of high school, dating a guy that was way too old for me, working at the Beach and Tennis club and I was not a member of the church!
5 things on my to do list: Clean out the office, find Liz's baby gift, update my blog(yes, one down), work on lessons for my preschool and take some things to the post office.
Snacks I enjoy: Well this has changed a bit as last week I started Weight Watchers. Before I loved anything chocolate especially Jake's chocolate chip cookies. I swear that man's cooking has made me fat! I love brownies and chocolate molten lava cake from Chilis. Now I love Costco's fat free frozen yogurt and these new fiber filled chocolate chip granola bars...yummy and only 1 point. I also get on a sunflower seed kick once in awhile which can be a very messy habbit.
If I were suddenley a billionaire: I would open a pre-school, have Jake work part time if at all so he could spend more time with Dallin, I would buy my parents a house so that they would be stable for once, pay for my sister's upcoming wedding, pay off all of our debt, have lots of children and retire early. Oh and I would really like my own car. And braces would be great too...
5 jobs I have had: Montessori teacher, receptionist, file clerk ( I hate clerical work), Beach and Tennis club counselor(so fun), and I was the donut shop cashier.
3 bad habbits: I procrastinate way too much...I really need to work on that(maybe later:) I am obssessed with Dallin's wardrobe...he has to look adorable at all times...he has to smell good and be clean. If he drips milk on his shirt it comes off...I need to be more easygoing and realize that the way he looks does not reflect on what kind of mom I am. I also lose track of things all the time...where are my keys?....have you seen my glasses? Has anyone seen my (fill in the blank)lately? I don't know why because I am very organized and my house is pretty clutter free most days. I swear that I lost my brain when Dallin was born...just the other day I forgot how to spell a very simple word.
5 Places I have lived: West Virginia, Orange County, Glendale, Chandler and Gilbert
5 things people don't know about me: I am actually very frugal...I get 99% of Dallin's clothes from Saver's. I am completely addicted to thrift stores...I love the thrill of the hunt and finding a great deal makes my day. I used to be too thin. Can you believe it? My junior year my mom threatened to put me in the hospital if I didn't eat and gain more weight. I am so far from that problem now! I have borderline OCD. I can't eat food without examining it for freshness first, I smell the milk and I always check expiration dates before I eat something. I have gotten much better in the past few years. I love animals...I would live on a farm if I could. I love dogs and puppies...anything with fur. I used to bring home stray animals all the time when I was little. Unfortunately I married into a family who hates animals so now I have no pets...kind of sad. Last but not least I love presents...any type of present. Thay make me very happy...even the homemade kind. I can remember almost every gift I have ever received. Actually my first childhood memory was of a present I received. Presents are my love language. I also really like giving little gifts. I love to wrap and adorn them with beautiful paper and bows....
