8 is great

8 tv shows I love to watch
  • Supernanny - Gotta admit I love watching chaotic households, makes me feel good about raising my kids and not needing someone to tell me how to do it.
  • Dr. Phil - love the drama
  • Oprah - she has a way with making me cry.
  • The Biggest Loser - just need to start eating better and exercising more -- Note to self.
  • Survivor
  • Jon and Kate plus 8 (wishing I didn't reduce our cable package, need to have sister DVR for me again)
  • Rachel Ray ( wish I could cook)
  • the news

8 things that happened to me yesterday

  • Went to work
  • Sister and brother in law came over for dinner (Carne asada tacos... yum yum)
  • Tried to teach Madison to ride her bike (If anyone has ideas on how to teach a 2 year old to pedal please let me know)
  • gave both my kids a bath
  • folded laundry (Oh wait, that was on my TO DO list but didn't happen)
  • did the dishes (Oh wait, I do that every day)
  • read about 8 different books about pumpkins to Madison while Carson was in bed. He missed out on the fun, was way too tired and grumpy
  • Tried to put Madison to bed in her own bed.... Will keep trying (actually right now she is asleep in her own bed)

8 favorite places to eat

  • Chili's
  • In-n-out burger
  • California Wok
  • Tahoe Joes
  • Javier's mexican restaurant
  • Tsing Tao (Yum Yum chinese)
  • Diciccos
  • Home when I have the energy to cook a good meal, just hate cleaning up

8 things I am looking forward to

  • Carson learning how to walk
  • Teaching Madison to sing Christmas Carols
  • Christmas!!! Love everything about it
  • Christmas presents... We are making gifts this year from the kids to give to family rather than buying gifts... get ready Grandma's
  • Christmas Vacation (Yeah to being a teacher and having three weeks vacation)
  • My 5 year wedding anniversary, even if we don't have any money to go anywhere
  • my birthday (2 more weeks)
  • Meeting my nephew Parker and my niece (name not known yet.. hurry and decide Deren and Jo)

8 things on my wish list

  • get out of debt
  • madison sleeping in her own bed everynight without a battle and without it being 11:00
  • more time to get scrapbooking
  • learn to sew (make a quilt)
  • paint interior of house
  • hardwood or laminate floors in kitchen, hallways and living areas (and the funds to do it)... someday
  • make a meal plan, grocery list and cook 6 days a week. If I am good I should be rewarded on the last day out to eat (cheap is better)
  • more time to read books myself (not children's books)
