Morning Ana!

Aside from little one being born what is something you are looking forward to in 2011? I am really looking forward to my best friend's wedding in October! They are getting married in Florida and Matt and I are making a mini-vacation out of it, while my parents watch baby T. I cannot wait!

Favorite TV show? Right now it would probably be the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Favorite Ice Cream? I love pistachio. Or rocky road.

Fave place to eat? Any local italian restaurant! They have the best food. I love nothing more than homemade pasta sauce and pasta! Yumm.

Wow!! 20 weeks already?? Doesn't fly?? Yes! And I am a little sad about it! I have been so fortunate to have had a super easy pregnancy so far, and I have LOVED every minute of it! I kind of don't want it to be over.

How are you feeling? I feel fantastic! Thank you for asking! My energy every day is super high, and I feel like a superwoman. I know it's bound to slow down here pretty soon, but I am loving it right now.

Favorite "go-to" meal to make? Anything Mexican. Tacos or quasadillas!

Any big cravings while pregnant? Just tons of fruit. This will be one healthy little baby. I would say I eat about three full-sized pinapples a week! Also, oranges and grapes... yumm!

Anything you are missing while pregnant? A glass of wine occassionally.

Favorite online shopping website? Amazon!

earl&pearl · January 2011

xojo1:

Good morning, Ana! Hey, Jo!!

What do you do for a living? Do you like it? I do public relations for a big non-profit organization and I love it!

What are the best and worst things about living in Ohio? The best thing about living in Ohio is of course the fact that our families are both here. I can't imagine living far awat from my parents and my sissy! The worst thing is probably the weather. Although, Columbus isn't as bad as some of the cities in Northern Ohio! Snow is pretty for about a month, and then I am usually ready for spring! I would like to live in a warmer climate

You have such fantastic style. Do you follow any fashion blogs or read an specific magazines for ideas? Thank you! And I really don't. I don't think that what looks good on stick thin models in magazines would necessarily look good on my body type. So, I normally just mix and match pieces to create my own style. And I love accessories and shoes. They can make any boring outfit look much cuter! I am also a fan of big statement necklaces, a nice handbag and fabulous shoes!

If I gave you $50,000 and you had to donate it to some charity or nonprofit, where would you donate it? The American Cancer Society, hands down. I have had several members pass away from different types of cancers, and the fact that ACS provides so many researchers with grants gives me hope that someone else may not have to go through what my family went through.

What do you think it is about the ladies on this board that make us all keep coming back? The fact that we are all a big dysfunctional family

What is a favorite childhood memory that still makes you bust out laughing to this day?

Every year, our family would go to cut down our own family Christmas tree. Yes, so cheesy I know. But it was something my mom and dad were adamant about. One year when I was maybe 10 or 11, we left the tree farm with the tree attached to the top of our car, and as soon as we got off the highway the tree flew off. My Dad had to pull over, try to salvage the tree and attach it back to the top. The rest of the way we drove about 5 mph, and what normally took us 15 minutes, took us an entire hour. My sister and I laugh about it to this day!

earl&pearl · January 2011

Paige&Jeff:

Any more thoughts on baby girls room? I am still all over the place with ideas! there are too many options. And it doesn't help that everything I like is ridiculously expensive. Sigh!
What do you love most about wedding planning? Making the wedding unique for each couple! I love it when little details reflect that.
Where is my latest bump pic email? (Slacker!) This one was taken Saturday night! It's less than 4 days old!!
Favorite Candy? Swedish Fish!
How many cute outfits did you already buy for baby girl? about 20, haha.
Do you have a coming home outfit picked out? (haha Amber!) I have my eye on one outfit, but I am still looking around. I can't commit just yet!
What is your middle name? (I feel like I should know this already) Marie!

jessica6283:

Are you going back to work after baby T? WHo's going to watch baby T? I plan on it! We will probably send her to the daycare that my work shares a parking lot with! It's very convinient and I can go see the baby whenever I want!

What's been your favorite car you've owned so far? I have only ever had two cars, and I like my current one. It's a red Ford Escape.

What does matt do for work? He's an engineer!

What should Ben's first puree be? Bananas, peas or peaches? Mmmm. peaches for Ben!

Would Uggs look silly on a boy? Even if we have 18 feet of snow? Yes

Hi! I hope I am not repeating any questions; I read through them but may have missed some.

Have you bought anything yet for the baby that isn't necessary but that you just HAD to have? Hair bows, and clothes! Oh, and baby shoes.

What's the best part about working for a non-profit? Meeting all the people whose lives have been changed for the better because of your organization.

What is your favorite maternity outfit style? What do you find you can't live without these days fashion-wise? I don't really think I have a style... I kind of just throw on whatever I am in the mood for. But leggings have been my best friend during this regular-clothes-are-too-tight and pregnancy-clothes-are-too-large stage!

earl&pearl · January 2011

Heather&Alexi:

Describe an ideal Saturday for you. Sleeping in, waking up and cuddling in bed, making breakfast together, reading the paper and taking charlie for a walk. After that, we could do whatever, and I would be content!

Congrats on halfway mark and an "easy" pregnancy so far! A couple baby related questions:

cloth/disposables? disposables for sure!

premade baby food/homemade baby food? i haven't decided yet.

co-sleeping/not co-sleeping? No co-sleeping for us.
