100th Post!!

It's my 100th post and I have no idea what to do for a giveaway! Karissa's idea was too cute and I couldn't compete with that so I will have to keep thinking of something creative for 200! :o) I better get blogging more to reach that soon! So instead I thought I would do a "10x10 on Tuesday" post. Almost a 100 facts about me. It will keep you reading for awhile! :o)

1. I LOVE sushi. (I was not so willing to try it at first but now I feel like I need it once a week.)
2. I have one daughter and am thinking I would like more.
3. My husband and I have a 13 year age difference and it doesn't seem like it at ALL!
4. I have ALWAYS wanted to move back to Phoenix and now that it's happening....I am having SUCH a hard time with the decision!
5. I am so glad that I love where I work! How many people can say that?!
6. I am one of FEW people that I know that can seriously say, "I LOVE my in-laws!"
7. I want a husky for a pet but really don't know if that would be mean in Arizona with all their fur.
8. It's September and I am already thinking of Rylee's birthday party in December!
9. I want to be a surrogate mother one day and can't wait for Scotland to go by so I can start researching more seriously!
10. I LOVE fall! I wish I lived somewhere where it actually became fall, but I love the decorations and the candle scents for fall!
11. I live in a place that really only has two seasons. In Arizona, it seems like we just have a summer and a winter.
12. I feel like a different teacher now that I have kids. In a way I want to be nicer because I don't want a teacher to be mean to Rylee. :o)
13. I am debating whether to upgrade my cable channels to get HBO and Showtime to see what all the hype about True Blood is.
14. I believe I had a GREAT childhood and my wish is for Rylee to say the same!
15. I wish I knew a guy I could set my mom up with to go out on a date!
16. If I do have another child, I would want another girl so Rylee could have a sister. I feel like everyone needs a sister! I love mine!
17. I love the show Amazing Race! Still want to be on it one day but seem to get the idea that no one wants to be on it with me. But Paul seems to be a HOT choice to be partners with!
18. I always wonder why some people feel the need to ask questions that are really none of their business!
19. I hate going to the grocery store hungry because I always come home with more than I need! 20. I want to get back into scrapbooking but it's so dang expensive.
21. I want to open up a place that delivers breakfast! We are never home for breakfast during the week and don't plan well enough to buy items for weekend breakfasts!
22. I would love to stay home with Rylee but feel like I would get bored quickly. Especially at the age she is now.
23. I always need a little something sweet after meals.
24. Is anyone actually still reading this?
25. I need Rylee needs to start eating regular food because Gerber is receiving WAY TOO MUCH of my money at the moment!
26. Sometimes I feel like I work just to support Gerber, Pampers and Similac!
27. I love that Rylee is SO loved by so many people. Her birthday invite list is going to be SUPER long. Uh-oh! Maybe two seperate parties are in order...
28. I am glad that once we move we won't have to change pediatricians. Glad I didn't choose a Mesa one!
29. I am thinking that Rylee is going to be lactose-intolerant to some degree. It seems like it comes from both of our families so I am thinking she might have gotten it.
30. I really was hoping to do a giveaway since it seems to get those "closet" readers to comment.
31. I would love to win the lottery! I am hoping one day.....
32. I am thinking I will need to convince Paul on sending Rylee to private school. I think I will win but WHY wouldn't you?? It can't be more expensive then daycare! :o)
33. Uniforms should be reason enough for me!
34. The Best of Phoenix magazine is one of my favorite magazines. Next to People!
35. My mom is a great mom! (Another wish: For Rylee to say that someday!)
36. Last night I had 10 hours of sleep! Thought today was going to be great until Rylee dumped a whole glass of water on the bed this morning which added laundry to the morning list of things before heading out the door!
37. Even though my family fights, I wouldn't trade them for anything. I love my family! Both of them!
38. I would LOVE to try living somewhere different, like a different state, but I know that I would miss our families WAY too much. I obviously have a difficult time with change since I am having a hard time with a different CITY!
39. I am glad that I get to experience the "working-mom" title and the "stay-at-home mom" title. Even though the stay-at-home title is only for 2.5 months, I feel like I get to experience both worlds. Both equally come with there own pros and cons!
40. I am still hoping to go back to school one day to get my masters! I would love to be a counselor in the future! I just don't like homework! :o( (Grading it or doing it!)
41. I am ADDICTED to Target! I seriously can't go in there without spending some money.
42. I am glad that Paul is addicted too! When talking about where to move, he said we need to drive around and get an idea of the neighborhood. Like where the closest parks, grocery stores and TARGETS are located!
43. When Paul and I lived in an apartment in Chandler, it was right across the street from a Target!! I think that was Paul's favorite place to live! lol.
44. I am hoping that Rylee will be a good traveler from now on. She wasn't so much in Prescott. I am thinking/hoping that it was just because she was getting sick!
45. I am grateful that I don't have a job that requires me to be outside in the Arizona summer heat. Only for 15 minutes every Tuesday and Thursday for recess duty! ;o)
46. I love the fact that my sister-in-law calls me her sister! So sweet. I just puffy heart her!
47. I think I am in need of a vacation! Like a real vacation...far away that includes a beach and a drink with a little umbrella! :o)
48. I have started working when I was 16! (Babysitting started probably when I was 14!) This past summer was the first time EVER that I did not work!! I LOVED it! Although since I love money, I think I might find a job next summer.
49. A good thing about moving: You get to de-clutter and start fresh! Ahh...a clean start!
50. Half way done! 49 more things about me to go! :o) A giveaway would have been much easier! ha!
51. I am having a hard time deciding what Rylee should be for Halloween. There are SO many cute, cute choices! I only have one year before she can talk and tell me what she wants to be!
52. After my crazy morning today, I forgot to defrost something for dinner so it looks like I will be at Cheesecake Factory using my free piece of cheesecake coupon! Something to look forward to!
53. Rain, rain go away.....do not ruin my "stayaway!" (a.k.a. staycation!) Sitting inside a hotel room with my family is not why I paid money to go to the Arizona Grand this weekend!
54. I hate laundry! I have debated over taking it somewhere to get it done but that still would not help since that is the part I don't mind. I need someone to come put it all away for me!!
55. Lunch time is the best part of the work day! Too bad it only lasts 25 minutes!
56. I want the Blogher convention to be in Phoenix so I can attend. Having it in New York City is not helping me!
57. I just love blogging. I love reading blogs too! I feel like I read too many sometimes! Shouldn't it be required for everyone to have a blog? I think so!
58. Today is going by SUPER slow! Maybe it's because I am looking forward to my cheesecake tonight!
59. I was a Eucharistic Minister at Xavier and now am one at St. Louis the King and have my first mass tomorrow. Wish me luck so I don't fall down the stairs! :o)
60. Don't Fourth Graders require a nap time in their daily schedule? Oh, I wish they did!
61. We are on the three month count down to no more formula! YAY! I am just hoping it's not going to be Soy milk I am going to have to buy next! Dang that stuff is expensive!
62. I don't think I am going to have anything to say next Tuesday on my 10 on Tuesday! :o)
63. Paul is a SUPER dad and Rylee is SO lucky to have him as her daddy.
64. I am dreading the day Rylee starts school and I have to send her to a school other than my own! I don't have an issue with my school at all but we only have one class of each grade and I DO NOT want to be her teacher!
65. I think that I might have gotten Paul hooked on Big Brother. (He has watched two!) I wished he watched all my reality tv shows with me!
66. Why don't kids like to sit and "AR" read for 40 minutes!?! I would just love for someone to tell me I could sit and read uninterrupted for 40 minutes every day!
67. I love water with lemon! My teacher friends make fun of me and tell me I should just order lemonade by the way my cup looks at the end of a meal!
68. I love that Paul's mom asks if Paul is always good with Rylee or if it's just an act when they are around. NOPE! He is just ALWAYS really good with her. She definitely has him wrapped around her finger.
69. I feel like I could make a Mastercard commercial for Rylee. $100 for a new phone. $40 for a new vase. $10 for a new bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. $2 for a new tub of wipes (after she pulled them all out!) Having the sweetest baby girl in the world....PRICELESS!
70. Rylee is a biter. She just randomly walks up to people and bites them! Inez's (Rylee's babysitter) theory is to have them bite themselves back. Well...this didn't work. Rylee just chomped away at her hand! ha! My theory is to bite them back! I tried...I just can't bring myself to do it hard enough that she gets the point. I don't think she is really getting the point of either at 9 months!
71. As much as I hate Shark Week, sometimes there is actually something interesting on it. I should do a lesson on sharks in my class because I feel like I know so much about them!
72. I love decorating for Christmas! To get a tree or not to get a tree with a 1 year old? That is the question.
73. I think Rylee's hair will be a mixture of blonde, brown and red. All three! She will just have to choose one when she goes and gets a drivers licence! What does Aunt Lorna choose?
74. My daughter is 9 months old and still hasn't be in a swing. A swing in a park. She went in a baby swing once and I had never seen spit up fly so far so she never went back in there again! I am thinking she is ready for a park swing! Where is the fall weather!?!?
75. This is much harder than it might appear!
76. I think that everything happens for a reason! I always wanted to be a cashier in a grocery store growing up so I decided in college to fulfill that "dream." That's when I met Paul. Go figure! 77. I am typing this during my student's lunch time. They eat lunch in the classroom. A child is adding hot cheetos to his sandwich and smooshing it down and now enjoying! Makes me think what Rylee is going to do when I am not around! ha!
78. I don't like ends of things! Crusts, corners of cakes/brownies, ends of hotdogs (either one).
79. I love baking! Another reason why it needs to get cooler! So I can turn on my oven and not feel like I am sweating to death after 15 minutes of it being on!
80. Paul's name for fantasy football couples league is "Nightmares of Two" Mine is "Dreams of Two." That shows you where Paul stands on more kids! ha! Last year was "Eating for Two" and "Drinking for Two." Had to change since that didn't apply anymore!
81. I was supposed to get a blog makeover and was hoping to get one before my 100th post but have been procrastinating on doing it! I need to get it done. I feel like everyone elses is so cute that mine wouldn't be as cute!
82. I am sad that now when driving I can't turn my volume louder than an 8 because I am afraid to wake Rylee up. I miss some loud music in my car sometimes!
83. Someday I will have a black car! Silly Honda Civic Hybrids not coming in black!
84. Paul thinks it's ridiculous that I live in Arizona and want a black car! Hello!?! The tinting has got to help some...right?!
85. My biggest fear when moving....Paul complaining about the 45 minute drive! I am just so use to it!
86. We have half day on Friday and the teachers have to stay until 2! SO not fair! Silly accreditation process!
87. I feel like when my grandparents die they should die together because I don't know what one will do without the other.
88. On our ladies night out Saturday night, my grandma had two sips of a gin and tonic and shared with us what we should all wear to her funeral. Sad. (It has to be something nice!)
89. I hope to be married as long as my grandparents are! They are just amazing people!
90. I would love to try camping at least once! I mean like real camping, not in a cabin!
91. My dad is a great dad. (Last wish: Rylee to say that when she is older!)
92. When they sell a "convertible crib" in the stores...don't you think it should just come with the "convertible" parts!! You would think that would make the most sense!
93. My mom is scared of the swine flu which now makes me addicted to washing my hands! Every time I walk by the restrooms, kitchen, wet ones on my desk, antibacterial in purse and diaper bag! My hands will be SO dry from all the cleaning! But I will be healthy!
94. I am glad that I got into Fantasy Football. It really is fun and I like getting together to watch and "compete." It's even fun when you don't win!
95. When do little girls get enough hair to "style"? I am too excited to put Rylee's hair in pig tails and braids! When oh when?
96. I have learned my lesson about Target Clearance! When you see an item on sale...buy it then! It will NOT be there when you go back in a week! Ugh! So annoying! I have lost out on some good sales!
97. My dream car right now would be a Toyota Sequoia. It's funny to think that a year and a half ago it was a Lexus IS250.
98. I LOVE the fact that I get pictures texted to me of Rylee during the day! You wouldn't get that kinda service from a daycare facility. (Or anyone else!) Even if the picture yesterday was of Rylee holding a St. Mary's plush football!
99. I am so glad that Target and Walmart actually have CUTE clothes for babies/toddlers! And for cheap! I think I find more at those two places than at Macys, Dillards, Nordstroms....
100. Yes, a giveaway would have been better but just think of all the things you now know about me that you didn't before! Have a great Tuesday!
