1. I just might have recovered from my cold/upper respiratory infection last week, thanks to a little miracle drug called Zithromax!
2. I think I got more sleep last week than I have gotten since before I had kids!
3. Three days in a row, I got the boys to go down for their naps at the same time & I got to sleep too!! Since they were also a little under the weather, they slept a little longer than usual….it was AWESOME!!
4. Even though I hate to see my kids sick, when Griffin is ill, he is a little bit more snuggly than usual!! I would be lying if I said I didn’t enjoy it…..he is usually hates to snuggle!
5. On top of all of us being sick last week, we also discovered Griffin has inguinal hernia. A trip to the pediatrician confirmed it & now we have an appointment to see a surgeon…oh joy! (*in my most sarcastic voice*)
6. I work in same day surgery & I see kids go in & out of surgery all the time…it’s normally not a big deal. But now that’s it’s my child….it’s TOTALLY a big deal!! To say I’m dreading it would be the biggest understatement of the year!
7. Speaking of work, some guy called me at work the other day from some company congratulating me on my feature in Woman’s Day Magazine. He wanted to know if I would be interested in having his company professionally frame the article for $229!!! Are you kidding me?! And how did you get my work number?!
8. The hubby & I went to see The Hunger Games the other night! I LOVED it! If you’ve read the books, I think you would LOVE it too! If you haven’t read the books, you probably wouldn’t appreciate it!
9. If you haven’t read the books, you MUST. READ. THE. BOOKS!!
10. Before I got sick last week, I had gotten up at 5am for two weeks straight!
11. I was finally in a routine of getting up early to blog & work-out and I was doing so good!! Now after all the sleeping I did last week, it’s going to be hard to get back into that groove!
12. It was so hot today, the thought of getting up tomorrow at 5am is already making me sweat!
13. Why does it have to feel like the middle of summer on the first of April?!
14. This week is my son’s spring break, and I’m kinda bummed we aren’t going somewhere fabulous! I could use a little vacation on the beach somewhere!
15. Are you guys still watching SMASH?! Who knew there was so much drama in the theater?! So scandalous!!
16. I’m thoroughly enjoying American Idol!! This may be the most talented group of kids they have ever had in the top 10!
17. I’m loving them all, but I think my faves are Phillip, Elise, Skylar, & Colton! Who’s your favorite?!
18. Calling it right now….Katherine Jenkins & Mark Ballas win the mirror ball trophy on DWTS this season!
19. I gotta figure out how I can become famous so that I can get on that show!! I really want to learn how to jive!! Do you think my Woman’s Day feature counts?! 🙂
20. This year marks Parker’s first year of summer baseball! He will be playing in the tee-ball league & my hubby is going to be the head coach!
21. Did you know they have a “draft” for tee-ball?! No joke…my husband was gone for 2 hours last Sunday afternoon drafting his team!! Ridiculous!
22. Have you bought any colored pants for summer this year?! I’m loving these coral pants & these mint ones. Gotta get me some!!!
23. I’ve been getting a lot of emails lately about my hair?! Questions about the cut, how I fix it, etc?! Thinking about doing a post to answer everyone’s questions……Interested?!
24. Thanks to the Adele station on Pandora, I now have a small obsession with Sara Bareilles. Love her version of Sittin’ On The Dock of the Bay & also THIS SONG. Seriously, listen to them both….you’ll thank me later!!
25. I can’t wait til HAVEN!!! Who else is going?!
I thought it said, “I can’t wait till heaven” on #25. lol! I saw your randomness post on twitter and just had to come say howdy! Then I followed you to Pinterest and now I’m browsing your blog. Too bad you can’t come over, I see you like farm living. 🙂 You’d like my little place. Hope to chat more soon!

Oh..so happy you are on the mend! I totally get the “nurse” part of it being your own child…I try not to let on that in my life before kids I was a nurse!! 🙂 Can not wait to meet you at Haven!!
So glad that you are finally feeling better! I hate that big G is going to have to have surgery. 🙁 It’s a good thing his mama is a nurse! I think the Women’s Day feature totally counts to get you on DWTS! Ha!
I agree that Katherine & Mark will win! Called that the first night! I am praying for G – hope everything goes smoothly! Also would LOVE to see a post on your hair! Praying you feel energized and productive this week!
Yes please do a post/video on how you do your hair. I adore how cute it is. I’m taking a picture of it to my next hair appointment but just not sure if I can make it work for me.
I love AI this season! So much talent they should have several winners. I love love Phil Phillips! I also checked out the Adelle station after you recommended it and it my new favorite Pandora station!

#23… Ok that is just weird, I look at your photo every time and think pretty lady, but this time before I read I thought hmmm, I like her hair cut, wonder if mine could do that and if it would be a lot of fuss. So yeah answer those emails.

Ok, yea… So this whole “draft” for tee-ball thing really weirds me out! We signed Jayden up since this is the first year he’s old enough to play and I’m already having that same anxiety I use to feel about try-outs when I was in school and he’s 4!! I’m sure it’s really not a big deal, but I just don’t want people judging my sweet little boy {I mean tough, athletic, little man} 🙂 off nothing but a name on a paper, I mean it’s not like we really know anyone around here… Grrrr. I wish we were in the same district as you guys and Parker and Jayden could be on the same team with “Mr. Bobby” as his head coach. That would make me so happy! And the pictures of the pants you posted? I love both of them! If I ever lose weight I’m going to go buy jeans in every color, dang it! {Thank you for letting me rant in your comments! Haha!}
i’m loving Smash, soooo good. And I am currently wearing bright coral pants! I love that spring is finally here, although I could just skip right to summer and be happy too!
