1) TJ and I met the weekend after September 11, 2001... Liz and Jeff introduced us and after a month of him trying to get me to go get coffee with him I finally said yes. He swept me off my feet and we were married less than a year later. It will be 6 years in October!! I LOVE my husband!
2) When I am tired I am tired and don't mess with me and just go ahead and do whatever I say!! TJ know not to get me up before 8AM (I do turn off baby monitors until 8AM too!) and my closest friends know to not call until around 10 AM after I have had my first cup of coffee!!
3) My favorite household chore to do is the laundry. I do not mind doing laundry at all and I HATE it when anyone else touches my laundry!! I am so picky about what gets put in the dryer and I do not want to miss a stain on the kids clothes. Just so you know my least favorite household chore is unloading the dishwasher! (TJ helps me with this often- sweet man!)
4) I still LOVE to watch cheerleading!! I cheered in high school and loved it and I also coached when I was a teacher. I MISS IT! I cannot wait for Karoline to be a little cheerleader someday (if she wants to be).
5) I think Avocado's are the best food you can give your kids! Both of my children eat avocado's almost daily... Karoline eats from 1/4 to 1/2 an avocado a day and Anderson eats 1/4th of one about every other day... Today they were on sale for .89 cents each (they are regularly $1.79 each) so I bought 22!!! I might even go back to get more! I have lots of baby food for Anderson to make this week! We even have an avocado song we sing...
6) If I could be anything (other than a stay at home mommy) I would love to stage homes for sale or work at Wiliams Sonoma Incorporated (Pottery Barn, PBK, WS, West Elm) headquarters in the city.... This is if I had to work. I hope I can always be a SAHM!
7) I have to eat a little bit of chocolate every day! I will have to stop this at some point in my life I am sure of it... But if there is not chocolate in the house after the kids go to bed I have to get TJ to go get something :) !!! Maybe this is why I can't lose these last 6 pounds!!
I tag my best friend NATALIE... I feel like I know everything about her but maybe not! I would tag my other best friend Kim too but she does not have a blog... Oh... I have a #8
8) Everyday I pray that Kim will start a blog!! (Just kidding Kim... no pressure... until your done with school that is!!)
Okay here are some pictures and a video to make the grandparents happy...
They are so cute together...
What a pretty girl...
WOW... Look at that hair! Oh it can be a mess!
It was Avery's birthday on Tuesday and she came over to get her gift. Karoline was glad to see her friend since she is leaving for a trip...
Anderson loves playing with his sippy cup while waiting on his food...
I thought he was so cute lounging around with his feet crossed...
Anderson sitting up... he is sitting up all alone now. Today he sat up for like 30 minutes without falling over!! YEAH!!
Anderson playing with Karoline's blocks... He is ALMOST crawling. He is taking "steps" a little more every day!

karoline is a pretty girl! and anderson is ALWAYS smiling...i love that!! i love that you bought 22 avocados--that is hilarious. i love them, too, but they are $$.
I learned some new things -- not the PB part, I know how much you love those stores! - but didn't realize how "late" you met TJ. For some reason I thought you were already dating by 2001. And your avocado love is hilarious! I mean, I love avocados, but if I bought 22, I would waste so many by not eating them in time; it's great that your kiddos love them too.
Beth,
Karoline IS such a pretty girl, and YES, the kids are so sweet together. They remind me of how I think Noah and Sailer will be b/c Noah loves her SO MUCH!
*By the way, I also still LOVE cheerleading, and I miss it so much! I also hope that Sailer wants to cheer one day! :)
I love advacados too...but 22?!? I think you would be sooooo good at staging homes, but being a SAHM is te best! I'm sure Karoline's hair can get hard to deal with...I've been so tempted lately to cut Makayla's, it's soooooo hard to get the tangles out of those curls!
