I've Been Tagged!

I was actually "tagged" a little while ago and I am supposed to tell you 6 interesting things about myself or my family. It has taken me a while to come up with anything since I am a pretty open book as well as being fairly boring. As these things may not be very interesting, I am afraid that this is going to be as good as it gets. So, here it goes.....

1) Tim and I spent our 1st anniversary giving birth to our son Spencer. We were married at 1:00pm and he was born at 1:01pm almost exactly a year later.

2) I delivered my 1st two babies with an epidural and I delivered my 2nd two babies natural. This actually came in very handy when Ethan was born because I was up and moving
quickly and was discharged from the hospital only 12 hours after giving birth.

3) When Spencer was 1, I went to nursing school and worked full time. Tim was also a full time student and worked full time. (In fact, there was a semester after I'd had an ectopic pregnancy that he worked 1 full time job, a part time job, and went to school full time. He literally had only 4 hours a week to himself.)

4) I was the sole bread winner for 3 years while Tim went to law school. As proud of myself that I was able to be able to support my family, I was very ready to give him back title when he graduated.

5) Tim and I were engaged after only 3 months of knowing each other. I knew he was the one for me after our first date. I had actually told my brother the day after our date that " I am going to marry that man."

6) We've been married for 11 years and have moved 8 times. We just built our house a year ago that we plan on living in for many, many years to come. I hate moving.

So there you have it. I am sure if I thought long and hard I might be able to come up with some more but at this time I am tapped out. Now that I have done this, I am supposed to tag someone else, so Brynn, Mike, and Jenn........"tag, your it!" (when you get time, I know you are all busy.)
