I am incredibly excited to announce that I was nominated for the One Lovely Blog award! A huge thank you Autumn at Welcome to my World for nominating me! I am truly blessed to have entered the blog world, made friends, shared my story, and been encouraged and challenge by all these wonderful people. I love doing it, so I’ll just keep it up!
The first of my two tasks upon winning this award is to share seven things about myself. So, since I’m better at talking about my kids than myself, I’ll give it a try…
1. I love 80s music. And clothes. And makeup. Yep. I said it.
2. I love Greek food. We have two wonderful Greek restaurants in my town, both of which I frequent. Also, the Greek Orthodox Church here holds a big Greek festival every May, and I LOVE it.
3. I can’t think of any boy names that I like for this next kiddo. My husband has decided on a name he likes, and I CANNOT reconcile myself to it. So I’m stuck.
4. I haven’t had my hair its natural color in several years. Honestly, if it weren’t for both my kids having it, I wouldn’t remember what it was.
5. I’ve never had pets really (I had a hamster. And also I think once we had a fish.) but I truly dislike cats. There aren’t really any cats I can think of that I like, or that have liked me. I don’t really consider myself to be a “dog person” either (probably because I’ve never had one) but I am DEFINITELY not a cat lover.
6. I’ve been planning a mother-themed tattoo – not a silly, cheesy one, but an artistic and meaningful one – but I can’t seem to stay not pregnant and not nursing long enough to actually get it. Maybe after this baby…
7. I get cabin fever really easily. I am a “go out and do things” type person, the opposite of a homebody. If I haven’t left the house all day, I go mad.
My second task is to nominate 15 blogs for this award! I’m not sure I can come up with 15 (several in my “blog circle” have already won it) but I will certainly try!
5. From the North to the South
9. Mamacravings
10. Dandelion Pie
Alright, I came up with 11. That’s close to 15, right? I would’ve given some of my favs a second award, but since they’ve already gotten it, I’ll stick with these. Go check them out, because they are all blogs I love! And thanks again, Autumn, for nominating me!
Congrats!!! And yes I will check them out! 🙂

Wow…thank you for the nomination. I will get to work on my tasks as soon as possible. Love your list of “About You” I have a Mother tattoo myself. Kinda cheesy. I did the name thing with hearts around my ankle. Just make sure there will not be any more kiddos before you put names on your body. Mister did his before ours was born. She is still waiting. 18 years later. Thank you again. I am shocked. And awed.

Aw thank you so much! I loved learning more about you. I used to change my hair color all the time. I got to lazy to keep up with it after grad school so it’s either had highlights or been my natural color. I only got the highlights to cover my grays haha.

I’m with you on the cats thing..I have nightmares about cats attacking me with their pinchy claws! Not a fan. I like dogs, but only someone else’s dog…and only from a safe distance. You just never know what they’re thinking and I don’t like that.
