it's a thankful kind of day

Y'all are far too sweet.

I get tickled when you "award" me. Since I've become a momma, I feel like I can use the word "tickled" and it sounds age appropriate. I never used it in my pre-momma days. I'm now tickled that I used tickled publicly.

Both Melissa AND Lea Liz awarded me this snazzy:



and now...to come up with 7 random facts about me. Eeesh. I am NEVER good at these things. {in the meantime I'll eye candy you with some shots of my camo outfitted babe who is ready for a good Oklahoma hunt all thanks to his Uncle Tommy and the Neff's}

1) I love Botox. Yep. I'll just start it out with a bang. I can wrinkle my forehead like that of a Shar-pei and there is not a whole lot about that, that I like. Botox is a glorious toxin and fills those suckers in. {I bet you feel closer to me already, huh.}

2) I am fluent in Spanish. If I don't pass this on to Hudson and Co., I will consider that my greatest regret in life.

3) Furthermore, if there is any {ANY, ANY, ANY} type of Latin music on---be it salsa, merengue, Spanish guitar...I WILL BREAK OUT AND DANCE NO MATTER WHERE I AM. I love to dance, not the coreagraphed kind, just dance. According to my husband I have only one "move" but I think I do that move well. It's that college-girl-i'm such-an-amazing-dancer-don't-you-wanna-dance-just-like-me-cause-i'm awesome-move. You know it, because you did it too. We frequently have dance parties at our house {myself} and even danced a lot when I was pregnant---in fact it almost put me into labor one night {dancing to Michael Jackson's Free Willy song, in case you were curious}.



4) I love to vacuum. Hate most other household chores, but vacuuming is truly a joy in my book. I'm so weird. I know.

5) I'm considering starting up my own baby photography biz. Don't have quite the confidence I need yet to really embark upon it, but I'm praying for it daily. Already have the name for it, and that excites me tremendously...

6) I hear Baby Crab awakening. 6 will have to wait.

7) I have the best job in the world. I may say this all the time, but my moments as a mother trump anything I have ever felt and experienced in my life before. To share this all with my husband goes beyond any happiness and love I ever imagined for myself.

Naptime is over, and it's time to feed: so I nominate you ALL to post 7 random facts about you, because they really are fun to read and I will pass out awards momentarily...

p.s. the WHITE room turned out awesome.
