Random

 I thought it would be fun to do a "random facts about me" blog. So here we go..

- I am tall (5'11 1/2). It is hard to find jeans long enough. If I can find them they are mega expensive. I also have a hard time finding shirt that are long enough...short..yeah I wont even go there.

- I HATE antiques. They FREAK ME OUT! My mom and her boyfriend tried to buy Jackson a crib from an antique store and I just about freaked out. (yes I know I'm weird).

- I could snack all day and not eat a meal and I would be totally cool with that.

-I love a clean organized house but I HATE cleaning. (Go figure huh).

-I love taking pictures and I wish I was better at it. I just don't have the money to upgrade my equipment right now.

- I would love to start a monogramming company and I want to.

- I have a bow business on Facebook. I opened it back up but I am only making bows when Jackson is down for a nap.

- I thought Jackson was a girl when I was pregnant. When he got here I had to check to see if he really was a boy.

-I LOVE Starbucks.

-I hate painting my toenails, but love to get pedicures.

-I really want a new SUV but probably wont get one for a VERY long time.

- I am attached to my phone.

- I take a million pictures of Jackson daily.

-I have over 1,800 pictures on my phone. I have them saved on my computer but I cant bring myself to erase them.

- I love and appreciate all my blog readers!!! Thank you all!!! :) ( I wish I could meet you all)

Let me know when you open that monogramming business, you have a customer in me! ;) Mmmm! Starbucks! Great post!

I have almost 3,000 photos on my phone and like you I just can't bring myself to delete them even though they're saved somewhere else. I have problems finding clothes that fit me as well, except it's because I'm short and curvy.

Elizabeth said...

Thanks for sharing! I had no idea you were so tall!

Elle said...

I'm tall too! (5' 10") and it's so hard to find jeans too! I've found everything at Target won't fit because it is always too short. Also, I just wanted to let you know that I pray for you and your family and you are so strong but God is good! and Jackson is a result of that!

Manda said...

Wow I didn't realize you were so tall! I am 6'1 and totally know how you feel in the jeans and short shirts department. I'm sure you can relate to turning what would be dresses for most people into the cutest, perfectly fitting shirts! Haha! If you search Pinterest for "Tall Girl Problems" you'll get a major kick out of all of them. Anyway, I absolutely love reading your blog! I hope you're loving your new job as a stay at home mommy :)

I don't hate antiques, but I don't like them either. The word "vintage" or "antique" always brings the word dusty or polyester to the front of my mind.

love keeping up with you! I am the same...I took on your challenge to take a daily pic of my little one, and I really do almost take at least one if not more pics daily...I will never look back and think I took too many!

I can totally relate with the pictures...I have over 3000. I'm running out of space :(

Paige said...

I would love to meet you too! I bet you, James and Jackson are lots of fun........but I live all the way in GA, and have never been to TX a day in my life LOL. He is an awesome little baby!! I know Maddie is proud.

tk's mommy said...

well that was a fun post, thanks for sharing :-)..Jackson is growing like a weed!! such a cutie .

Serene said...

Haha! I have 1200 photos on my phone, and they're all on the computer too, but I just can't delete them.
I didn't know you were so tall! I'm only 5'2", so I have the opposite problem when it comes to finding pants. They're always too ling unless I wear heals.
I wish I could meet you! I feel like I know you just from reading your blog.

We have a lot in common, besides our boys being born on the same day!! I love reading what Jackson is up to, and him and my son are doing the same things!!!

I have over 2,000 pictures on my photo card, some from almost three years ago. I have got the pictures developed, but I won't erase them, I even have them on CD, I guess I want a back up in case something happens to the pictures, the CD, and my computer, I have a back up. Sound crazy?
I have a friend that does personalized jewelry, it's beautiful, and thought you might like a piece made with Maddie and Jackson's names, let me know and I will give you her website. It's all sterling silver, beautiful stuff!

Jamie Fitzgerald said...

Oh and I am tall too, Levi makes "tall" jeans in all sizes. I shop at Kohl's because they have Levi jeans and they are always mailing coupons for 15% off and have sales. Can usually get a pair for around $20 and they last!!!

Raquel said...

I love reading your blog Jackson is so cute! I had no idea you are so tall I have the same problem with jeans I'm 6'1" I get mine online from gap they have the extra tall which is what I get.

Nicole Rodriguez said...

I didn't realize you were that tall! I'm 5'10" and 3/4" - ha! I just say 5'11"! And I had almost 1200 on my iphone and just the other day downloaded and deleted. This was the second go round! I love iphone pics :) I always have to save a few faves though!

Unknown said...

Have you tried New York & Company jeans?

Mrstx said...

That's awesome that you are tall! I'm 6'3"...I swear I'm part giraffe! Yeah for tall girls! :)

kaydee said...

I am the same height as you and I love GAP for their tall sizes. They make the pants with a 36in inseam. The only downside is that its online only and the sizes come in a little larger so you need to go down a size for the shirts not the pants.
