Never thought I'd hear myself say
I thought I'd start a little "series" on my blog. I'd like to call it "Things I never thought I'd hear myself say as a mother". I have been thinking about posting some of the random things I tell my son. Apparently "Parents" magazine has a similar series, but I swear I thought of it first! :)
So, here are a couple of things I never thought I'd say
"Eat your hot dog and your Cheetos and then you can have some cake". Um yeah, hello....cuz dinner is clearly the healthier choice than cake
"Stop eating your (styrofoam) cup!" When I noticed that his drink cup had three bite shaped moons missing from it. I couldn't find the remainder of the cup at first, so I assumed he had actually swallowed the styrofoam. Thankfully he didn't!
How about you moms out there?

I cannot lie...
I know, I STINK at keeping up with this blog lately. After many of you getting mad at me I thought I'd actually post something! Some friends and I were discussing random songs...and I got to thinking about songs that are pretty much guaranteed to get me out on the dance floor at weddings. Some I am not proud of, but sometimes you just can't help dancing to the beat!
SO
Songs Guaranteed to get me dancing at a wedding:
1. Baby got back
2. Brass Monkey
3. Boot Scootin' Boogie
4. Ice Ice Baby
5. Ride Wit Me
6. Pour Some Sugar on Me
(like I said I am NOT proud) :)
What are your songs you just can't help but dance to?

75
75...it is the number of books that I have marked "to-read" on my Goodreads list. As if I need any more! I was looking on the Goodreads website and found a posting where someone asked "what 5 books you must read before you die?". So, what I want to know is what are YOUR top 5 books that you would recommend reading before you die? I know my number one is obviously the Bible...but other than that I don't know! Too many good choices! If I had to choose right now without giving it TOO much thought...I'd say...in no particular order
The Bible
Anne Frank: Diary of a Young Girl
Pride and Prejudice
Little Women
Harry Potter (#1)..if for no other reason than to see what all the hype is about!
Tell me yours!

The Bee-ah Song
Conversation with my two-year-old today:
Him- "Mama, sing the Bee-ah song"
Me- "Sing what??"
Him- " Sing the Bee-ah song"
Me- "what?" NO IDEA what he is talking about
"you sing the bee-ah song"
Him- "The bee-ah bee-ah eee. That ...for me.....Bee-ah, bee-ah, eee"
Me- "OH! The B-I-B-L-E.....yes, that's the book for me..."
It was so cute! Probably much cuter than it comes out in print.

Happy Mother's Day!
I wanted to wish a happy Mother's day to all of the moms and soon-to-be moms out there who read my blog! I know I have been blessed to be the mom of a wonderful, silly little 2-year-old. It is truly one of the best and hardest jobs out there! I wouldn't trade it for the world. It gives me a new appreciation for my mom (whom I already love dearly!). Happy Mother's day mom!
We don't have too much planned for today, although my hubby promised to take me out to dinner so I wouldn't have to cook- yay! He also gave me a gift certificate to get a pedicure at a great nail place here. I know I will enjoy it!
What are you up to today? Anything fun or relaxing?

Confessions of a tea purchaser
I have a problem. I love to buy tea. Weird huh, considering that I LOVE LOVE LOVE my coffee with my yummy creamer, and I rarely drink tea. However, I can't seem to resist continuing to buy tea. I think I am hoarding it for some unseen event in the future when all of the tea supplies in the world are depleted. Don't worry...if that happens, I'll share with you. (I also seem to have an insane amount of shampoo, toothpaste and excedrin, but that's a story for another day) Anyway, there was a period of time when I could not go to the grocery store without purchasing a new kind of tea. I have since sworn off tea buying, but it continues to tempt me. I must use up some of my stash before I buy any new tea though!
Some of my favorites:
Any brand of Ginger peach
Lipton Bedtime story tea
Lady Grey tea with cream and sugar
Any tea lovers want to tempt me with their favorites? Anyone else hoard something and not know why?
