10 Things

Here are 10 things about me you may or may not know:


1. I never liked chocolate much until I was pregnant and now I love it.

2. I fall asleep while driving long distances super easily. (like roll down the windows and scream and STILL can't keep my eyes open)

3. I am not freaked out by the usual spiders, bugs, snakes, mice etc. that many women seem to be freaked out by. I try to instill this non-fear in my daughter as much as possible and really get bugged (ha-ha) when I notice a kid that has been "taught" to be afraid of these things.

4. I hate yard work. (Thankfully my husband loves it)

5. I am a total bargain shopper and get the biggest high off of saving money. It makes me sooo happy!! It is such a sickness that I have to take a moment and decide - do I really need this item or am I just impressed with the deal?

6. I love our kegerator but am not a big fan of beer. I love the taste of it but to drink more then one glass feels like torture.

7. Dave's Killer Bread is one of my very favorite things.

8. Total night owl, I am almost never tired until it is time to get up in the morning. Sadly I think my daughter is rockin' this gene and it is much less becoming in a two year old.

9. I find ground turkey to be really exciting! I know that sounds weird but I have not eaten red meat in many many years and only with in the last few started using ground turkey, it opens up a whole new set of dishes that I thought you would need ground beef for.

10. I could eat Thai food 3 meals a day forever and NEVER get sick of it. Well I suppose I haven't tried doing that so I might be wrong but I really think I might be able to pull it off. Oh but wait, I also love Mexican food, and Italian food so I might start missing those...Oh and ice cream! Yummm!

Adventures in Potty Training...

I began potty training Ava right around the time she turned one. I broke out the potty and began encouraging away. She faked interest in the beginning but soon it became apparent that the child was a little hopeless, to say the least. Throughout the year that followed I realized that this strong willed child would need a little more time, as well as mom backing the heck off. Before she turned two I came across a blog a mom was writing who made a bold statement of parents simply being lazy if they aren't potty training their kids very quickly. I was so mad about when I read that but also felt like maybe she was right all at the same time. It motivated me to simply take away Ava's diapers and sort of force her into being ready. I spent the entire day encouraging her as she had accident after accident. She managed to pee in her potty about 4 times and everywhere else about 347 times. I was so stressed out, so was she. At one point she peed on the floor and looked up at me
