I saw this on someone's blog...

100 things about ME!
(I saw this one a blog that I was reading and thought it'd be fun!)

1. i love to watch Reality TV... it's pretty sad really... I DVR up to 10 shows a week and watch them while Owen takes a nap.
2. my first word was "Katie", my cousin's name.
3. i am still amazed that i live in this house... it's everything I've wanted and so much more!
4. i sometimes look at Derek and think to myself "how could i have hated him?!"
5. oh, when i met derek i did not like him AT ALL!
6. i only let owen watch kid shows that don't annoy the heck out of me
7. when i get mad i tend to swear... i hate this about me
8. i have an obsession with heels... especially a peep toed stilleto (it's bad!)
9. i'm often envious of girls who have perfect make up and hair
10. i'm also envious of girls who have awesome bodies after babies without doing anything...
11. i love going to the gym
12. i love eating things that are "bad" for me (these last two don't go together really haha!)
13. i wish i had a better diet
14. i want another baby, but don't want to be pregnant again
15. a clean house to me is the most amazing thing

22. i've always been a take charge kind of person.

32. i feel so fortunate that derek and i get along so well... we have the occasional fight, but it's usually a little spat
33. i feel that owen is a direct reflection of me, therefore i try to keep him in clean clothes, tidy hair, clean face and to teach him to be polite and a nice boy
