Q & A Wednesday

Follow up- These will be on Friday normally.
Jenn asked: What's one thing from your past you wish you would have never done/said? Describe the perfect date night with Aaron...your choices not his!

Answer- I try not to have regrets but I do wish I would have said/did alot of things with my dad and grandpa while they were alive. Now they are gone I often think of things I want to tell my dad but can't. I can't recall anything I wish I never said or did though.
Every date night we have is perfect because we are alone. I do love going to watch live music. I would love to go to Gruene, eat at the Gristmill and end the night dancing at Gruene Hall.

Ask your questions, i'll be back FRIDAY to aswer them. 2 questions per person please.

Q & A Wednesday {Thursday}

Well crap I forgot yesterday was Wednesday. We spent the morning and afternoon at the Blue Bell Creamery then went to the Blue Bell Aquatic center so by the time I got home I was exhausted and totally forgot about my promise to bring back Q & A Wednesday. Forgive me? SO here we are on Thursday......... ask away! Limited to 2 questions per person. Ask me anything seriously anything. I'll answer I'm not shy!

Q & A Wednesday!

This will be my last Q & A Wednesday. I am taking the summer off. With all the adventures and traveling we will be doing I didn't want to have to worry about remembering to do it. Don't worry though now that winter is over and the sun is shining (on most days) we will be out and about. There will be lots of adventures and pictures to post about. 

So ask away and come back on Friday for Follow Up Friday! 

Q & A Wednesday!

Wow it's already that time. I am still thinking about the questions from last week. I still need to ask Aaron and Ashley their 5 words to describe me. So ask away and come back for Follow up Friday. 

We are going to head outside today when the babies get up. It's really nice right now and supposed to be even better tomorrow. 

Q & A Wednesday!

Hello there. It is a gorgeous day in Newfoundland. We spent the morning at a friends house playing outside, the babies love the fresh air and so does mommy because it helps them sleep a long time. 

You know the drill, ask away, keep it clean and come back Friday for Follow Up Friday! 

*Alicia I see you lurking....... I know there is something you have always wanted to ask.... here's your chance. Just picking!

What day is it?

It's Thursday and yes I forgot about Q & A Wednesday. Well I didn't forget I thought about it but never got around to actually doing it. So here we are 1 day late. Ask away and I will be back tomorrow for Follow Up Friday. Oh and wait until you see the pics I have for Silent Sunday. I will probably do a sneak preview because we have taken some really good pics this week. 

Q & A WEDNESDAY!

Go ahead ask away! Get creative and ask anything. I will be back for Follow up Friday to answer all your questions. 

Q & A Wednesday!

Better late than never right? To be honest I forgot all about it. Our fridge went out last night. Most of the day I spent on the phone trying to find a way to get Sears out to my house today instead of 10 days from now. I went with another company and they were here and done within an hour. Can you imagine 10 days without a fridge, seriously.

So anyway ask away. I will be back Friday for follow up Friday to answer all your burning questions. Dig deep ya'll I know you have something you have been wanting to ask.

Q & A Wednesday!

Happy Wednesday! You know what that means. Ask away, any question as long as it's clean. Please come back for Follow up Friday!

Here we are again on a beautiful blue sky day. Ask away and don't forget to come back on Friday for Follow up Friday!

I am off to fill up my bird feeders and maybe see if Kiki wants to go outside. Poor cat has been indoors for the whole winter.

Q & A Wednesday!

I am actually surprised about how long this has been going. I thought for sure no one would be interested and it would fizzle away. I love it, so ask away.
Come back for Follow up Friday!

Q & A Wednesday

Whew we have been going this week. I don't even know with what, I guess life in general. We had 2 snow days last week, the weekend and Ashley was out of school Monday, needless to say it was nice to get back to normal. We have had a few nice, blue sky days and we have been able to play outside without wearing mittens, hats and snow gear.
So here we go ask away! I have already received my first question via email. Stay tuned for Follow up Friday.

Q & A Wednesday!

Welcome back I hope you got your questions ready! I already have a few from some early birds. Leave a comment with your questions or send me an email. Stay tuned for Follow up Friday for all the exciting answers.

Q & A Wednesday

As always all questions are welcome. Post a question in the comment section for me to answer, emails are welcome too. I have had some really great questions and I think my readers have seen another side not always talked about on the blog. Please come back on Friday to see all your answers for Follow up Friday.

Q & A Wednesday

A little late, sorry!!! I have been doing really good and going to the gym 3 times per week. Well today I had to be there at 9 so I had to get my but in gear early. While we were out we went to the store. Now we are back home, lunch is done and the babies are napping. The one nap has been going great. I have been tweaking it a bit because if the babies go down any later than 12:30 I have found that it takes them longer to go to sleep. I have been trying to do lunch and in the bed by noon.
OK so anyway here we are the middle of the week. Last week I had some great questions and hopefully you got to see a side that I don't always talk about. Well since I normally only talk about my kids anything is new information.
So ask away! I will follow up on Friday.

Staci

Follow up Friday

I got alot of great questions this week.


Deanna asked:
1.Where do you get your arts and crafts ideas?
Most are just floating around in my head but others come from websites such as skip to my lou, scrapbooking websites and cricut.com. I love taking an idea that I see and making it my own.
2. What's your favorite thing to do during the day? (With the kids, with out the kids)
With kids is going outside to play. Although we don't do that very often now. Right now I guess it's going to the book store or to playgroups. Without the kids, probably date night with Aaron.
3. What is your biggest challenge during the day?
The evening hours when it's dinner time, kids need to be bathed, kitchen needs to be cleaned and we all just feel like crying. I have learned to start dinner earlier even if it means it's ready and we have to re heat. At least we aren't waiting to eat while listening to tired kids.
4. Do they have pizza delivery?
Where we live, no hehe



Hajar asked:
Do your babies have times when they would rather feed themselves than let you feed them?
I don't really feed them anymore unless it's yogurt, applesauce or oatmeal. They don't mind when I have to feed them especially since they LOVE yogurt, oatmeal and applesauce. One day I will be brave and just give it to them with a spoon........ one day.
Would they sometimes rather eat what you are eating than to eat what you've offered them?
We pretty much eat the same thing unless it's spicy or I am eating a sandwich for lunch and they are eating veggies. I will give them my crust though. lol We even gave them salmon the other day. Preston was not amused. In those cases we give them ravioli or vienna sausage which they love.


Jenn asked:
1. Why do you like scrapbooking as a hobby?
I love the idea of preserving memories for my kids.
2. What meal do you prepare that is delicious?
My favorite is garlic chicken
3. Do you consider yourself a leader or a follower?
Leader
4. What is the hardest thing about having twins?
The long days but I am sure that is the case with all moms. If the babies aren't feeling well or are cranky it makes for a very hard day x two!


Tasha (sister in law) asked:
1.How did you and your husband meet?
Aaron was a friend of my brother, Dustin and yours before I met him. Aaron was visiting friends in Virginia and Tasha was supposed to pick him up from the airport. I decided to go with her and my first impression was he was an ass. After spending lots of time with him we fell in love. awwww. We got married a year later in Vegas which was his idea. He didn't tell me until 2 weeks before we left.
2.Do you miss the working?
I miss being part of the working world. I miss being appreciated, my last boss really loved me and was very appreciative. I always heard mother hood is a thankless job and it's very true.
3.Why is your brother so weird? hehehe
Well I am sure my parents would have to explain this one because Aaron says I am a little strange myself.


Mama Jean asked:
If you were to have a child born in Newfoundland, would it be a citizen of the U S or NL?
It would have dual citizenship because we are US citizens living in NL.


Joe asked:
When you moved to Newfoundland, did you have any preconceived ideas about Newfoundland (or Newfoundlanders) that were either proven or disproved after living here?
I must admit that before I moved here I had never heard of it but after researching online I found that it is a very beautiful and cultural city and the people are so friendly. I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to have all the luxuries of Houston (Target, Mexican food, specific brands) Since living here I have realized I am not missing any material things. I guess you adapt to your surroundings.
The main thing I was worried about was making friends. I have always been outgoing but have a hard time making friends because well I have been told I come off as bitchy. That idea has been dis proven because I have made friends, I have been able to make meals and do just fine with what St John's has to offer.



Courtney asked:
What are the babies eating these days?
It's probably better to tell you what they don't eat. They don't eat pretzels, nuts, or chips not because of allergies but because they are hard. They do eat peanut butter though. They are great eaters and will eat just about anything. I stay away from sweets or anything high in sugar. They love fruit and veggies so I am hoping to keep that trend going.

Once again you haven't disappointed me. These are really great questions and it gives an opportunity to view a part of our lives that I may not talk about.

Q & A Wednesday

Here we are again....... ask away! I am hoping that I get at least one question per week to keep this going. I will follow up on Friday to answer any questions that you ask.
Ask in the comments if for some reason comments don't work because for some reason they don't always work properly send me an email by going to my profile.
