    1. Feeling the baby move inside - it was an awesome feeling and one you can't describe until you go through it.  I'm looking forward to getting pregnant with #2 for that reason.  

    2. It depends on why the fight started.  If I'm protecting my family/friends/self - hellz yes I'll get into a physical fight.  But if it's over someone just being stupid - I'll back down to prevent anything from happening.

    3.  Socks.  :)  They're cute socks, I can't wait for them to go through the wash so I can wear them.  I'm going to blog about it.  I know - exciting.

    1.  What is it like being married to someone who doesn't like mexican food??  ;o)
    Haha, it is quite the challenge.  Out of the blue he will say, let's have tacos... I run with it.  But the rest of the time it is really annoying having to rule out an entire block of seasonings/foods.  So I just eat it as much as I can when I go out!
    2.  Do you still lurk on The Knot at all?
    Nope... what a snooze it turned into.  I left and never looked back.
    3.  Does the thought of having a baby make your uterus scream?
    OMG YES.  We still haven't gotten into the serious talk about kids... I am hoping it just doesn't happen....................or I can be one of those bad people who take BCP without their husbands knowing, hmmmm.

    Shelly:

    1. Do you think Murry will ever get a fur brother or sister? 
    Absolutely.  It will probably be another dog... a more manly one for Matt.  Something closer to 40-50 pounds that he can take camping and stuff.  But it will be at least another year before that happens.
    2. What home project are you most looking forward to?
    Anything we can afford..... I am still waiting on getting my new section of kitchen cabinets.  But I reeeeally want to gut the bathroom, but that won't happen for awhile.  This summer all we have planned is a new garage door, some boat repairs, and some other necessities.
    3. Are you excited to meet your sisters new baby?
    Ehhh...  I am a bad person.... I don't really care.  I am happy that she is happy and she will be a great mom.

    Shelly

    1. Are you all done with everything for your sister's shower?
    Lord no... my mom and my BIL's mom are co-hosting so I am making them do a lot of the work.  I am coordinating overall, doing the candy buffet, and all paper products.  They can deal with the menu and decor.
    2. What is she naming the baby?
    Supposedly they are going to keep that a secret since they couldn't with the sex (boy).
    3. When will Murray get a doggy brother?
    At least a year.... he still isn't a perfect boy.  I don't really want another dog because I would always pick him as my favorite.

    We actually used to go to taco bell alllllll the time.  Once we waited in a drive thru in Southfield for 30 min. during a shift change... he introduced me to nacho cheese chalupas!  I don't know what happened........ugh.

    1.  If you could punch anyone right now with no consequences, who would it be and why? Someone at the Pittsfield Twp office... it's taken 4 weeks to get garbage cans and recycling bins out to our house... i'm so frustrated with them right now... it might be worth it, even if there are consequences...
    2.  What is your favorite thing to bake? I make an awesome batch of brownies, they're super easy and delicious!
    3.  Have you ever cheated on a test? Yeah.  In high school we had some pretty ingenious ways to cheat... like typing answers into our calculators as "programs".

    Ballerina:

    1.  If you could go back, would you buy the house you are in knowing you would have so many repairs and have a sprinkler breaking neighbor?  Hellz no.  We would have rented an apt for a year or so and then built a new house since the prices have fallen so much.

    2. If you worked for another company, would you still buy Ford vehicles? Yes, I come from a Ford family.  I come from a GM family too, but I had way too many issues with my Chevy that I will never go back.

    3. Do you ever miss being pregnant? Yes Embarrassed  My ute hurts on a daily basis.  I have baby fever really bad, but have to wait until the fall.

    1. How did you get your cat to lose weight?  I have a fatty cat myself. It is a slow process we just started. Cats don't need carbs, so the first thing is to have them on a grain free diet. We feed Wellness Core.  Then I am just slowly taking away a little food at a time making his portions smaller.  Fatty does not like it!


    2. List the last crazy thing your boss said. The very last thing was yesterday (he is not here yet today).  He stole my co-workers nutrigrain bar. She had left it on her desk to have for breakfast. When she yelled at him and told him that was supposed to be her breakfast, he told her she should have been more prepared. No i'm sorry, just next time she should bring two since he steals food.


    3. Do you prefer summer or winter? Summer

    Kbaby:

    1. Do you have any stories from the IL visit? A few. She taught him how to fake cough. He thought it was hilarious and now is constantly doing it. DH told her it was annoying and to stop, she told him that he was wrong and it was cute.

    She told us where we could and couldn't move/buy a house when the time comes after driving around. That was thoughtful of her. 

    She had a sobbing fit talking about how she just didn't understand why anyone would want to raise their family and live in the town where DH grew up and they live now. When I told her that it was never our plan to live in CA forever she didn't believe me. DH spoke up and said that it wasn't part of his plan even before he met me...which was nice. I think she needed to hear that from him. She didn't really know what to do with that information. And just sobbed. 

    2. What is one thing that we don't know about you? I lived in Geneva for a year when I was younger.

    3. Aside from mama and dada, what do you think Landon's first real word is going to be? He says "GehGeh" for Gidget...not sure if that counts. Baby babble is so much nonsense. He's been working on his "fffffff" sound lately. So probably fish...or fvck.

    1.. How is DH's first week at the job? Really good thanks for asking! He's super excited, it seems like a way better fit for him. they are going to the tiger's game tonight and have casual friday every friday- my husband's dream! I'm just happy he is happier and it's just a better place in general
    2. Do you have any new foster pets? not right now :( We just couldn't with H working 13-14 hrs a day and me working lot's too, we were depending on my brother to let our pup out a lot, we didn't think it was fair for a foster pup to be locked up at our house all day, plus we are going on two vacations this month. We are bad people.  We visited the shelter the other weekend and offered to do over nights or last minute fostering for a few hrs for a safe place until the dog could make it to the new shelter location (they left ferndale) which is ann arbor or with another foster.
    3. Post the latest purse you bought :)I bought a beautiful kate spade for a summer spring purse... I love it and I'm pretty sure she loves me back!
