Alright kids, I've been down with the sickness for about a week! Thankfully, I missed the stomach flu that husband picked up, but I've had some nasty congestion, headache, and cough keeping me up and sleepy. So, tomorrow I'll catch you up on the week 31 goodness this preggo has been experiencing!
I'll be observing a day of blogging silence tomorrow to reflect and pray for those effected by the earthquake and tsunami.

| Adorable Polka Dot Scarf by Lo |
So, one of my best-est friends in real life and in the blogging world, Lo, is growing her blog like crazy! She has now started Giveaways, and this is her first one!
Head on over to her blog, Lo & Behold, to win this little beauty that she crafted herself! But be quick as it ends today! Ps, you should follow her blog too, because it's great! Just know that I'm hoping I win it too :)
There is an awesome give-away going on over at The Daybook, from The Lap of Luxury!
They have amazingly cute stuff, and I'm crossing my fingers I win.

So, even though Spring is fast approaching (hopefully!), I'm still looking forward to sporting one of these little babies!

1 - I met my oh! so fantastic husband online, just like Lauren, and I will give her credit for convincing me to go onto Christian Mingle and it actually working (seriously, it's great!). I almost wrote the hubs off because I found out he was in the military and was stationed in SPAIN, while I was finishing up nursing school in Cincinnati, Ohio...talk about long distance. However, I couldn't resist his charms and fell in lurve.
2 - I am totally a dog mom. I have always loved animals, but I never really pictured myself as a "dog mom", but I totally am. People share stories about their kids, and I then have a story that I think somehow relates to raising a child, to raising our dogs. Our dogs are 130 lbs, and 90 lbs and sleep in bed with us (this soon will change with the purchase of new dog beds), thank goodness for a king size bed.
3 - I am a true nerd at heart. In high school I was a cheerleader, ran track, grew up playing select soccer, all while belonging to science club, competing on science Olympiad, working as a lab assistant for our biology teacher, and working on yearbook. Not too mention, I LOVE Harry Potter. Yes, I am 23 (almost 24) and will be at the midnight showing, as I always am, for the next movie....I even have a shirt I wear to it!
4 - I want to run my own business. I love working as a registered nurse, but I strive to do something else. I love photography, baking, cooking, crafting, and event planning. I'd love to really get my photography business of the ground, open a bakery, start an organic baby food company, become a wedding planner, flip real estate, or really anything. I just want to have something that is my own, that Kurt and I can run together and be flexible when we have kids.
5 - My parents get along great! When I say my parents, I mean ALL of my parents, including Kurt's parents. In fact we all vacation together every year (can you believe it!), to Pawley's Island, SC where Kurt and I got married.
6 - I'm neither a wino, or a beer fan...I'm BOTH. I love wine of sorts, but mostly reds (especially in the winter!). I love beer, and my fav is pretty much anything from a local brewery here in Bethlehem, PA named Bethlehem Brew Works.
7 - We want four kids, yes four. We're each one of four, and love it! Let's get this family growin'! (after we get insurance, and I lose the lbs!)
Love this blog and love this give away!
