I am blank because....

I've seen these going around on numerous blogs, and of course I thought it was super cute and wanted to write a post doing something similar. So here I go!

I am weird because...





I started x-mas shopping in January.
I have x-mas presents for 2012 already.
I make tons of list, but rarely revisit them.
I would much rather stay in than go out.
I have an obsession with free stuff.
I don't like manicures/pedicures. {I'd rather do it myself}. {And I don't do a very good job}.


I am a bad friend because...



I am terrible about making plans.
And sticking to them.
I am horrible at checking my phone.
And answering messages, emails, calls, etc.
It takes me days , sometimes weeks, to check my voicemails.
I have to say no, a lot.
I often prefer to spend my weekends with the family, every time.
It's hard. Very.



I am a good friend because...



I am a good listener.
I will do anything for my friends, as soon as they ask.
I'm very giving, and don't expect anything in return.
I give good advice.
I am very supportive.


I am sad because...



Time goes by way too fast.
I feel like I should be doing more sometimes as a mother and wife.
Money doesn't grow on trees.
My friends live so far away.
Winter is coming and I hate driving in the snow/ice.
My to-do list is never ending.
I can't please everyone.
Elliana gets more bumps and bruises now that she started walking... sad face. 


I am happy because...


I love my little family of three.
God has blessed my life.
I have a career that allows me to not have to put my child in daycare.
Christmas is right around the corner.
For My baby's health.
For My health.
For My husband's health.
I get amazing kisses from my baby girl.
Hopefully 2012 will hold an addition to our family.


I am excited for...

Christmas!
Swim lessons with the baby girl.
All the milestones to come.
Welcoming another nephew in the family!
To see what 2012 has in store for us.

    I did this last week and my "I'm weird" list was the longest! :) I hate pedicures too because I am so ticklish and I hate people touching my feet. I thought I was one of the only girls on the planet that felt this way! That's awesome that you have gifts for 2012. I wish I was ahead of the game like you are!

    I must say as a bloggy friend you have rocked lady!! You have supported me through a lot and I appreciate it!!:) You ROCK!!

    I wish nothing but the best for you 3 in 2012!:) I cannot wait to see Elli in swim lessons, that will be so cute!!! Let me know how it goes, I REALLY need to get the boys in some!

    Love this idea! I make lists too, but I always revisit them and then when the items on the list are all crossed out - it can be thrown in the trash!

    Great post! this looks like fun I think I might join in! and I am also sad that money doesn't grow on trees, especially with my wedding only a few months away and starting to look for a place. This will be the first time I ever live on my own I don't know how I'm going to afford this!

    LOVE this...what a fun idea for a post!!! I'm the worst about my cell phone too - missed my "sister from a different mister" 's call that she has just welcomed her first bundle of joy into the world (on my birthday, nonetheless) and didn't get her voicemail until 3 days later...worst BFF of the world right here!

    I love this! I'm the same way with friends, I feel like I would rather be with my family. Not enough hours in the day. UGH.
