I don't even blog much anymore but I always find the time to do the Knowing you, Knowing me blogs started by the Fairy Blog Mother. They are just that fun and I love reading everyones answers! Link on over and play along.
1. Showers or Baths?
Showers. I would love to take baths but I need to let you know that I have 3 children and one more on the way. If they hear me or see me running a bath they instantly start with the " I want a bath." Then they stand outside the door banging on it crying and yelling "I want to take a bath too mommy." Plus I do need to mention that I am 5'11" so most baths do not fit me comfortably so I just stick with hot showers. Nothing more comforting. Oh and did I mention that my kids hate showers so its a win win in this case.
2. What is your favorite thing for breakfast?
Not really a breakfast person. If I can just sleep through breakfast and go straight to lunch I am much happier. BUT if I had to pick I would have to say my mother-in-laws homemade biscuits and sausage gravy.
3. What is your favorite George Clooney movie?
I am not that big of a fan although I did like him on ER. I know not a movie. I just watched Leatherheads the other day and that was a pretty good movie. I did like him in O Brother Where Art Tho. Probably any of his movies where he is a little goofy and not so serious. I would like to see his new one that is just out too.
4. American Idol starts Tuesday folks, How do you feel about Ellen joining the judges table?
I don't watch. Sorry. I quit after about the third one. Simon just pisses me off that bad. =) I usually just watch through the auditions because they are just that funny and I can only imagine how much better it will be with someone like Ellen there. I think she is hilarious but don't really get how she is relevant for American Idol but who am I to judge. No pun intended.
5. Lets say you got a gift card to Michael's...what would you spend it on?
What wouldn't I spend it on? I guess it would depend on how much it is for. Right now I am crocheting so probably yarn and/or patterns. But I would have to go to the scrapbooking isle. More than likely I would get stuff for my cricket cutter that I love but haven't been able to use for a little while.

Knowing Me, Knowing you December
I totally missed the November addition. I love doing these and cant believe I missed it! Always skip on over and check out The Fairy Blog Mother who created the monthly interview process and play along. Its so much fun!
1. Are you an egg nog fan?
No way! I try it every year because it looks so good but I gag on it every time. I don't know what it is about it but I just cant acquire the taste.
2. What is your favorite at Christmas treat?
I cant think of a at Christmas treat but my favorite seasonal treat is the Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks! It is my all time favorite and just makes it that time of year...know what I mean. The smell, the taste, everything about it.
3. How is your tree decorated? A theme like red and gold? Or does it have a more eclectic slant?
I would for sure say it is eclectic. I put up my moms tree this year. Since she has passed away I take over the Christmas tradition of early Christmas morning with my brothers and their families. They come early and I make a huge breakfast with all the trimmings. She had a tree of all the ornaments that we made when we were in school, from family outings and then grand-babies came along and the ones that they have made are on there too. She even bought the stuff one year for them to make ornaments together so the handmade ones are on there. This tree is more valuable to me than gold. It is for sure not my style but it makes me feel so close to her with her not being here. My brothers appreciate it too!
4. What is your favorite Christmas movie?
I don't really have a favorite. We usually just watch which ever one we come across on TV. I do like the ones with Tim Alan. I forget the names of them right now. Plus you have to watch the Charlie Brown seasonal ones too. We have been watching those since I was a kid.
5. New PJ's on Christmas Eve?
We usually always have new jammies for Christmas Eve. Usually just because I was able to find them for a really good deal on Black Friday. I did not go this year due to blood pressure issues and being preggo so I need to go and find the kiddos some for Christmas. Oh Man one year I was able to find footy PJ's for Tim (the hubby). It was so great! I need to mention that he is 6'2". It was just about the funniest thing. What makes it even better is that he asked for them. I wonder that happened to those.

Knowing Me, Knowing you October
I have missed a couple of these being sick and all growing a baby but am glad that I am better enough to join in in October. This is a really fun interview started by my friend The Fairy Blog Mother to help everyone get to know each other better. It is a lot of fun and I encourage everyone to join in.
1. Crunchy Peanut Butter or smooth?
Depends I love crunchy peanut butter on pancakes but have to have smooth on a sandwich. Peanut butter and syrup with crackers is a house hold snack around here. And I am with The Fairy Blog Mother, it has to be Jiff.
2.Do you do any volunteer work?
The only volunteer work I do on a regular basis is volunteer with the four year olds at our church. I love it and the kids love us. I do this with my hubby. I have not been able to do it lately because of morning sickness and I miss them as if they are my own kids.
I do other stuff as a needed basis. If people need me they call me.
3.What is your favorite cold weather drink?
Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. I know that Fall has arrived and Winter is just around the corner when they start serving them here. Just the smell of them says fall to me. I love them.
4.What is your favorite holiday?
Valentines Day! I love the pinks and reds and how everyone just walks around on that day with their head in the clouds. I love seeing all the men at the mall and Wal-Mart freaking out doing last minute shopping because they forgot. It is just a loved filled day. My girlfriends say I'm a hopeless romantic. You think?
5. Okay quick-you got to hop a plane right now, to anywhere with anyone-where do you go and with who?
I would go to Paris with my hubby to kiss under the Eiffel Tower at sunset. (My dream and please see last question above.) =)
