Another Blog Award!

Happy Tuesday you guys!  Still no new news on our baby girl.  I guess if I were her, I'd love hanging out inside this tummy too.  I mean, she gets a lot of good eats and good sleep in here!  In any case, and on a completely random note before I start on this blog award business, yesterday morning I told Malu that I'm getting a little tired of hearing Jack Johnson's "Better Together" song every time I open our blog.  The song was the inspiration for the new title of our blog and one of the songs I love to hear Malu play and sing.  So he says (jokingly, of course), "yeah, we're together now so you should take it off."  I think he's getting tired of hearing it too :)  What do you guys think?  Should I take it off?  I won't be hurt if you tell me yes.

Anyway, I'm amazed that people find me cool enough to keep sending blog awards my way.  I was actually given this award by two people--Nicole from Life in the Boys' Locker Room and Mrs. Gambizzle from Life as a Sailor's Girl.  So what you're supposed to do is tell everyone 7 random things about yourself.  Since I'm honestly not great at coming up with stuff on my own, I'm going to use 7 of the 8 questions from this past weekend's Getting to Know You Sunday, which is hosted by Keely at Mannland5.  I didn't get to answer this week's questions, so it works out quite well, don't you think?  So here we go:

1. If you were to win an award today, what would it be for?


Probably for being in pretty good spirits with Baby V still hanging out inside me.  We're at 40 1/2 weeks!

2. What is your shoe style?


I'm very casual.  I don't like heels at all, although I own tons of pairs (some with the price tags still on) just in case I need them later on down the road.  And I have flat feet, so the more comfortable the better.  I like ballet flats and flip flops best.

3.  Does your car reflect your personality?


We have a Jeep Commander which is big and rugged.  I don't think those describe me too well, but I love it!

4. If you could take over someones body for a day..whose would you choose?


Probably any body that isn't pregnant!  And one that's in shape too!

5. If you were on death row, what last meal would you choose?


This is a very difficult question...I think I'd like to eat something from Paula Deen's restaurant in Georgia--everything from appetizer to dessert!

6. Have you been on vacation this Summer, if so where?


Unfortunately, we've just been hanging around El Paso.  Hard to go places when we're about to have this baby and all.
7. What is your favorite food related guilty pleasure?


OMG...anything chocolate.  Right now it's Oreo cookies.  I even have the Oreo ice cream sandwiches in the freezer!

So there are 7 random things about me!  I'm also supposed to pass this on to 9 other blogs, but honestly, I'm not going to do that.  Every time I get an award, I'm in danger of passing them on to the same people and that's no fun to me.  So I'm just going to pass it on to one person!


I've recently become a follower on Nicole's blog, The Bingham Tribe.  She has the most darling little family and great stories to tell.  So check her out!


Thanks to Nicole and Mrs. Gambizzle for spreading the award love to me!

Congrats on your blog award (aka blog hug:o)

I finally posted your blog on my sidebar under Blogs I Browse! It sure beats having to find you each time through comments that you may have left. I have been meaning to do this for a long time!!!

Anyways...can't wait to hear of your little ones grand entrance :o)

And I love that song of Jack Johnson's. If you were to take it off...what would you play instead?

Love to read your answers to the questions on this post :o) Hm...we live here in Savannah...so if you are ever in the area to check out Paula Deen's restaurant...please let me know :o) And hey! I went to High school (back in the good ole days...way back when...in the dark ages..etc...) in Alamogordo, NM...only about 2 hrs north of El Paso...and I had gone to El Paso to buy my prom dress!

Anyways....

Blessings & Aloha!
