So, I was tagged a while back and I'm supposed to come up with 7 interesting things about myself...
1. I like to organize my kids clothes in rainbow order in their closets. "Like to" might be the key words right there, because they never stay that way for too long.
2. I had kidney cancer when I was pregnant with Marlee. The doctors found it because I had a kidney stone, so they did an ultrasound, and then 12 days after she was born, they chopped out my kidney, along with the cancer. I have had no problems since, and I'm coming up on 5 years. Usually this is something that old men have...and I'm not old...or a man. Hmmm.
3. I love fall best of all the seasons.
4. I detest talking on the phone, except to Rob, my mom, and my brothers. So don't call me. :)
5. I'm not a typical female in that I'm a dreadful multi-tasker. :(
6. I know nothing about history. I really wish I would have listened better in school. I'm one of those people you would laugh at on a game show because your first grader knows more than I do.
7. I have the smartest husband ever. Seriously. And he's also pretty nice, and grows a mighty fine beard. I know every man is jealous. :)

in case you were wondering...
~i am so excited to be having another girl, and i've already been shopping too much, even though i have an attic full of girl clothes from marlee
~i'm craving a la rockita veggie burrito, with green salsa and lime
~lately i've been loving fish tacos, and everyone i tell this to thinks i'm disgusting :)
~i like to blame everything on being pregnant...forgetfulness, moodiness, unmotivation, and anything else that's convenient at the time
~i still throw up almost every time i eat fruit, and it really sucks because fruit is one thing that always sounds so good :(
~i hate the fact that everyone warns you about the "terrible twos" and then fails to mention that (at least in the case of my kids) it gets progressively worse with "throwing a fit threes", and "fighting fours"
~mostly im just really sick of marlee arguing with everything i say no matter what it is
~i made blackberry pie and blackberry cobbler yesterday, because they are robs favorite

Funny faces, bay front, and the beach. That's all.
So I said "make funny faces" and they did. They are such good listeners! I especially love owens folded over ear in the first one. :)
Just watching a little olympics with dad. Pretty serious stuff.
But not so serious that you can't stop and smile for a picture...
...as long as you get right back to it!
A little Newport Old Bay Front. Had to stop and look at some seals. (Sorry...no picture)
Oops, a couple more from the bay front.
Awww!
A crack only a mother could...um...love.
They really do love each other! :)
Yep, I was there too.
Soooo fun to run away from the ocean!!!!
Also fun: throwing rocks into the ocean.
I just wanted to see if I could try out one of those neat "jumping on the beach" pictures. I was pretty excited to get the "tongue hanging out of mouth while jumping on the beach" shot! Bonus!!!

A little of this and that...
We had a little family reunion at my parents house and here are a few good looking people who came...Chris and Staci, and little Tatum who is growing up so fast! Don't get to see them enough, but it's always nice when we do! Love you guys!
Brian and Heather were there! We talked about what a horrible blogger I am, so here I am trying to be better! Thanks for the motivation :), and it was extra nice to see you!
Joe and Jennifer and their son Andrew...he's such a cutie! Andrew and Owen had fun playing in the water table even though it wasn't sunny at all.
Jon and Dewey, I don't think Jon knew I was taking their picture :)
Owen tried out his cousins scooter, which he calls a "tooter".
Owen could barely reach...
...and I think Rob was having the most fun! :)
My favorite one...if you know Rob you might enjoy it too! I laughed so hard! What a tiny little man he is! :)
