About me

Introduction I think the way people define themselves pretty comical but if I had to sum it up, I'd say I was an environmentally aware, semi crunchy, very attached, co sleeping, cloth diapering, baby wearing, former breastfeeding and retired exclusively pumping, 28 year old mother of 2 preschoolers and a set of twins, who also happens to be an Army wife. I like my soup without broth, my bananas slightly green and my tea as sweet as it can get. I'm not the best housekeeper, I'm not the greatest friend you will ever have and I am certainly not mother of the year but I do my best with what I am given and I try really hard. I had 4 babies in less than 4 years and have moved, on average, every 8 months since 2002. The longest my husband and I have lived in the same zip code is 8 months and we have spent 2/3 of our marriage living in different countries but for some reason I totally dig this life and wouldn't change it for the world. I've learned in the past few years that if you set the bar low, you won't be disappointed and will be pleasantly surprised when things go well. Sad? Yes, but oh so true. No expectations means no disappointment.
Interests social experiments, human interaction, politics, psychology, watching grass grow, spending my husband's hard earned money, parenting, natural childbirth, the minds of 2 year olds, photography, baby naming, cooking and finding good deals.
Favorite Movies anything that doesn't involve sad story lines, explosions, guns, men in uniform, freakishly large animals amphibians or bugs, body parts not attached to bodies, death, nuclear explosions, and nudity.
Favorite Music anything I can shake my groove thang to.
Favorite Books Yeah I haven't had time to read a real book in ages.
