1. Favorite thing about being a mom? I love when I go in in the mornings to get her out of her crib (the few nights she makes it all night there) and she gives me huge smiles. I live for her smiles.
2. Do you and your H want more kids? Yep. I want four but MH says two... we'll see who wins.
3. Favorite thing about Oklahoma? I don't feel like I've experienced much of it yet to know... I'm glad we're a lot closer to BIL, SIL & my niece.
4. Hobbies? Before LO I loved to read, run, play sports, scrapbook... now I get little to no time to myself and when I do my hobbies are sleeping or taking a nice long bath.
5. Favorite food? Anything italian... I love my carbs!
What is one of your favorite movies? A league of their own
What did you want to be when you grew up? When I was really young I wanted to be a dolphin trainer, but then for a long time I wanted to be a pediatrician.
How did you and YH meet? We met in our college dorm. We lived on the same floor. He was actually interested in my roomate first (he says because he was told I still had a bf from HS) and they went on one date before he vetoed her and then started wooing me.
You're a vet, right? Do you specialize in anything? I am... although an unemployed one at the moment. lol No I don't specialize in anything now, and I probably won't. I would have to go back to school for 4 more years to specialize and now that I have my daughter that just isn't as appealing.
How are you liking Oklahoma? I like it a lot. It's weird that it has still been so warm... I miss the cold falls in Kansas.
Favorite book? I love The Grapes of Wrath, I haven't really read anything new lately. Any suggestions?
Favorite TV show? How I met your mother, guilty pleasure is Vampire Diaries, and my newest favorite is Revenge.
Fave vacation spot? I loved Cabo when MH and I went three years ago. We will probably go back sometime.
If you could splurge on anything right now, what would it be? I would love a new expensive pair of jeans that fit perfectly. I still haven't lost all my baby weight and non of my pre-pregnancy clothes feel that great anymore.
Fave piece of jewelry? Cliche maybe but I love my wedding set. Other than that I have an opal and diamond ring that was my great grandma's that I cherish.
Favorite trip you've taken? Probably our trip to Cabo a couple summers ago. We had ben living an hour and a half apart for a year because MH took a job in another town and I was still in school and it was right at the beginning of my summer break. It was amazing getting to spend so much time with him again and we did a lot of fun things there, ate amazing food, and had a lot of sex!
Describe your perfect Saturday. It would be preceded by C STTN for the first time ever!
Then MH would get up with her and let me sleep in while he made me breakfast (bacon, eggs and scones). We would either go to the park, or take the dogs out to run around somewhere all afternoon. That night we would eat some kind of amazing italian food, have Tiramisu for dessert and then watch a movie together, or take a whirlpool bath.
Favorite baby names?
What are you passionate about (can't say LO
)?
Favorite outfit?
Favorite band/singer?
Favorite baby names? If we have another girl I like Charlotte, Georgia, and Nora- although MH vetoed all of those this time around so who knows. Our boy name is Brooks (my mom's maiden name). I also like Reid and Everett.
What are you passionate about (can't say LO
)? I love making jewlery (forgot to mention that one in my previous hobbies post). As far as like causes or something to that effect I'm a big advocate for the agriculture industry, especially the beef industry (MH's family are cattle producers). I want to band my head against the wall whenever people on the bump keep pushing organic, or no meat diets (to each their own I guess) but agriculture/ranchers are not the enemy! 
Favorite outfit? Skinny jeans, riding boots, a pretty tank and a long cardigan is usually my go to outfit.
Favorite band/singer? I love Brad Paisley and my new favorite is Francesca Battistelli (christian singer).
Brooks is on our list, too, and it's also my mom's maiden name. Everett is my grandma's maiden name, and is also on our list! haha

ITA about the beef industry. My dad is a rancher, as well. He does sell organic beef, though. Whole Foods in OKC carries the brand he sells to.How did your H propose?
How long have you been married?
How long do you think you'll live in Oklahoma?

Haha that is crazy about our boy names, and I love hearing others support the beef industry.
How did your H propose? I was sleeping over at his apartment and he slipped the ring on my finger early in the morning. Then when I woke up he was down on one knee and asked.
When we tell our family though I was just there for a nap because we weren't supposed to be spending the night together until we were married. haha
How long have you been married? Almost 5 1/2 years. May 27, 2006 -hence the screen name.
How long do you think you'll live in Oklahoma? Probably for a god long while now. MH is part owner of the clinic he just got a job at so we will likely be here awhile.
Celebrity crush? Ryan Renolds- yum
How did H propose to you?
What is your favorite thing about H?
What is the one thing that he does that drives you crazy?
What is your favorite thing about H? He is the least selfish person I have ever met in every way. He does whatever it takes to make C and I happy and I know he would step in front of a bullet for us.
What is the one thing that he does that drives you crazy? The man can't seem to put a darn thing in the dishwasher.
