Hi! I'm Andrea, and this is my blog.
I love chocolate, and loaded tostadas.
I must always cut my waffles on the lines.
I am scared of strange dogs, thunder and lightning storms, needles, poison ivy, and escalators.
I adore high quality coffee, especially flavored, with honey and lots of cream.
I love to laugh and goof around. And I might snort when I laugh... I said might.
It's a cute snort, darn it!
I don't like bugs in any form. I shake at the sight of spiders, crickets and cockroaches. Snakes.... I don't mind them.
I am craving cream puffs as I write this.
Red is my favorite color, but I love them all, really.
I haven't yet preserved my wedding gown... gasp!
And last, but certainly not least... I really, really want my nose pierced. But, I'm a wimp. (see above about needles).
I just thought I'd get us re-acquainted since it has been so long since I posted!
This blogging stuff is hard work...
NOT!
I love it. Every minute of it is fun for me. It's just that I had a lot of fun doing other stuff this weekend.
Like, sleeping in late with Daniel, and eating huge breakfasts, watching Judah jump out of his skin at the sight of a sparkler, sparkling, listening to my baby laugh, I read stories to my children, and composed umpteen jillion blog posts in my head.
We watched fireworks, went to Lubbock, took long walks, and swam at the base pool.
I read a cookbook, did tons of dishes, loads of laundry, shopped, got sunburned, and possibly... possibly made some new friends.
All that along with exactly twelve-hundred and eighty seven other fun things.
I was busy! And I had fun! But I missed you all. And now I'm back. You just can not get rid of me.

You are too much fun girl!
I am right there with ya on the waffle thing, and the snortin', and the bugs and the needles and the coffee and the...ohhh, creme puffs?!? Well, I wasn't really in the mood for creme puffs, but now that you mention it :)
Great picture btw - Eliza is looking so big and too cute for words!
Missed you!

You sound like a lot of fun! I too hate bugs but don't mind snakes... maybe cause we don't have them here. I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who hasn't preserved her wedding gown yet! :s ... it mocks me every time I open the closet door.
I find I do the same thing with waffles. Creme Puffs you would have to go and talk about them. now I want one or two also.
I hope that you have a great day. hugs and blessings.
After I read what you were scared of I was wondering where the spiders were going to come in :)
Wonderful picture my beautiful friend.
I'm so relived that I'm not the only one who hasn't preserved the wedding gown yet. Like valley mom, mine, too, mocks me every time I open my closet door. When i give people tours of my house, people literaly GASP that I haven't had it preserved it. Oh well, I'm too busy having fun with my baby! Priorities, right?! :)
Nice to meet you Andrea. I am Jenny and I too hate little buggies. Except Lady Bugs.
Sounds like you had a great weekend!
Exercise of the week is here...for all of our bat wings!
nice to meet you, andrea. i had a great weekend off from normal life too... it was great!
i was feeling ready to start another week though...my fun and lack of doing normal things added up to one busy day for me today... but not until after i'm done checkin' in with wonderful people like you!

Awesome tidbits about yourself Andrea. Glad to see you are back!
Oh..and the nose piercing isn't that bad. It happens so quick that if you close your eyes you won't see the needle. Doesn't hurt for a long time either, just a few hours afterwards. If I can do it I know you can!
Sounds like a fantastic, fun weekend.
Bugs don't bother me so much, but I cannot stand snakes.
I too cut my waffles on the lines, love chocolate, and adore coffee. Mmmm coffee...I think it's time for a cup.
Glad that your back and that you had a great weekend, but I really did miss reading your post's!
I thought you were off making wonderful unforgettable family memories. Sounds great. I so hope you met some new friends. Miller enjoyed the fire works too...
Sounds like a great weekend!! I'm with ya on the needle phobia!! Although if you need a shot, I'm your girl. I don't mind dishing them out...just not to crazy about being on the receiving end! LOL!
Glad to have you back in blogland!
I was thinking along these same lines!!
Very neat to get to know you a little better :D
Sounds like a fun weekend! I pierced my own nose when I was in high school (have no idea why I didn't have it done professionally) and my nose ended up swelling up to the size of a golf ball for a day or so before it looked normal. As a punishment, my mom made me go to school like that ( : Eventually I allowed it to close up, but I still think tiny nose rings look nice on some people.
thanks for the re-introduction! i'm fairly new to your blog so it's good to know these things about you. i am also afraid of strange dogs and thunderstorms.
sounds like a wonderful memory filled weekend.
loved that post! I too want to pierce my nose... but hubby doesn't want me to. hmmmm. I also want a tattoo. :)
glad you had a wonderful weekend!

Oh good, coz I forgot who you were - it's been THAT long! :) Hahahaha. I think the spur-of-the-moment Meme was a good way to reintroduce yourself! :) Fantabulous!
Oh, and good luck with the potty training. Any advice? Oce's 2+ and I'm just not sure about it. We go when she says she wants to - but .... I know that's not a good way to go about it.
Eek.
Is that a promise, or a threat?
;)
LOL great way to reintroduce yourself to the masses *snort* LOL
BTW reading your list was like reading a description of my likes and dislikes, it's actually creepy, but not in a bad way LOL
Have a great day Andrea,
Sandra
Great info! We seriously have a ton in common! :)
I loved the reintroduction. We came to your blog in one of those 6 degrees kind of way. I started blogging 'cause I found "myminivanisfasterthanyours" then we clicked on her friends and another and now you are a daily read. You know what I love best, my 17 year old daughter faithfully reads your blog. She loves that you eat whole foods, shop organically, take your kids on walks and try to enjoy every moment. Thanks for being a great mom/example not just to your own kids but to mine too.

I must also cut my waffles on the lines - glad to know I'm not the only one . . . .
I am just waiting for one of my 3 kids to get hurt at the pool. They are always pushing the limits - I try and try to tell them to be careful, stop, etc. - but sometimes they do have to learn the hard way. Hopefully, prayerfully, it won't be in such a manner that they seriously hurt themselves . . . . .
I had a crazy busy weekend but always checked your blog from good 'ol Wyoming each night. Lack of posting made me think you must be having a fabulous weekend! Glad you're back! (And thanks for the fun tidbits about yourself!)
Nice ta meetcha!
When I get a hankerin' for a nose ring, I wear a magnetic earring in my nose. It takes a little getting used to, but I quell my inner rebel w/o any pain.
Just don't forget it's there & blow your nose....
Not that I've done that. ;-)
Do you eat your M&M's by color?
You remind me of Kate beckinsale (sp?) here. So pretty! :)
get the nose pierced. It's not that bad. You'll love that you did it. really. And, it would look great on ya. do it. :)
Friends!? That would be sweet! and you know how I feel about piercings...;) It's one needle one time and really you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner if you ever do get one:) glad to have ya back Andie! love ya!
Dave
Not sure how I missed this post?
1. You are so cute in this pictures!
2. How can you not hate a snake? They have no legs, there is no way to tell what direction they will take?! Some are deadly. Really, they are worth despising Andrea, I promise. Oh, and they shed their skin, eeeww - are you convinced yet?
3. Did you read the whole cookbook and which one was it?
4. I'm glad not to be able to rid myself of you, a blog world with out Mrs Hub would be a sad world indeed.
Your posts are always so much fun! Where do you find the time?!
Happy POW!
PS--I want my nose pierced really bad, too...but I have not been able to make myself do it yet...
Oh, get the nose pierced! They don't use a needle- they just shoot the actual post right into your nose. And it doesn't hurt a whole lot, just a tiny tiny bit. Totally worth it!
I had to stop wearing a nose ring for my current job, and it just closed up over time. I miss it.
Great post! I'm with you on the needles...however, I'll take care of the spiders if you take care of the snakes for me!
Great post! I totally compose blog posts in my head, too. sometimes I will wake up and be blogging in my mind. I really enjoy your blog- Happy POW!
Love this post. Your too much - FUN that is!
Tarah
Very fun for me to learn a bit more about you! I am so new to your blog - what a great idea and I love the picture - Very precious.
Worry not about the snorting, I cry when I laugh.
Wired up wrong I guess!
Thank goodness for not being able to get rid of you!
I just love hearing about other people's little quirks...it makes me feel more normal.
