I am so excited that I have time for a blog post - I know you've been anxiously awaiting for more! haha   As I was logging in to my blogger account, I realized something...I have absolutely nothing to blog about.  My life of fun recipes, craft projects, product reviews, restaurant visits, and just plain exciting, can't-even-stand-it stuff I used to blog about, is no longer existent.  My life revolves around these beautiful, smart, and amazing little girls.  Oh and of course my husband  and our dog :)  Those two links really go to show I haven't blogged in umpteen years.  I've never typed that word - umpteen.  I think it should be left for saying and not typing - it looks weird.   I've questioned whether or not to post pictures of the girls on here but then I decided it's really no different than Facebook and Lord knows I annoyingly fill my friends' newsfeeds with adorable twin moments.  Sorry guys!  Ok - I'm not...

Well hello there, it's only been 392 days since I've last blogged .  I've been a little busy with my ALMOST one year old twins.  Where has the time gone?!?!  I'm still debating on putting their pictures on my blog because there truly are so many crazies out there - no offense!  We shall see.  Any who, today is my birthday!!  I thought no better day than to do my 35 Before 35 Bucket List.  I did a 30 Before 30 List a couple years ago and it went pretty well.  So, here we go!  The first couple are being carried over from that list - better late than never. 1.    Go Camping .  This will be a little harder with the girls.  Maybe we'll just stick with the backyard. 2.    Volunteer at an animal shelter .  This is going to be so hard but I really want to do this.  I may have a backyard full of dogs when I'm done.  But they can keep us company while we camp! 3.   Comple...

Pregnancy brain REALLY messed me up when it came to our maternity photos.  I had been thinking all along that I scheduled them on June 7th.  So I was going to spend the week before that getting my nails done, shopping for some outfits, and possibly getting a spray tan on this pasty, prego body!  Well, the Saturday prior to the 7th, my photographer texted me and said she wanted to make sure everything was in order for tomorrow.  TOMORROW?!?  Now, her and I had been texting for a couple days working out some details but I thought she was just really on top of things which I can appreciate.  But no...I had the wrong date in my mind.  What's worse is that I actually had it in my calendar on the correct date! So I scrambled to do my own nails, went shopping the next morning, and had to shave my legs (which is quite a ridiculous task right now).  Screw the tan...I didn't have time!  And David was going to cut his hair before the pics - didn't h...
