- Jason and I are NOT married. We met our senior year in high school. We've been together 11 years. I mean it feels like were married already since we've been together for so long. You can read more about our love story HERE
- I gave birth to all 3 of my girls with NO DRUGS. With Kaylee at 5cm I got a cocktail to help with the pain {it lasted 2 hours at most}, with Keira at 8cm I got a cocktail again which did absolutely nothing & finally with Kendall at 7cm I got a cocktail that last 1 hour. I knew when I gave birth to Kaylee without drugs and the wonderful experience I had {don't get me wrong, it did hurt and the ring of fire was not fun at all} I knew if I got pregnant again that I would do it all over again with no drugs.
- I have scoliosis. I've had it since I was younger in my teens. I've had some x-rays done to make sure it isn't getting worse {which thankfully it's not}. But my back constantly hurts and I'm sure it doesn't help that I have bad posture!
- I have a huge fear of heights
- I don't like flying. I get bad anxiety when getting on the plane. I have to have a book or magazine, have the air blowing right on my face and be chewing gum all before taking off. Once in the air I'm ok and I relax a little bit
- I'm the oldest and have 3 younger brothers. Our names all start with J's. {Joeylee, Joshua, Jacob & Justin} I always wanted a sister which is why I think god blessed me with 3 daughters!
- I have a love for photography. I love taking pictures of my girls and I would love to take pictures for others but I don't know if I'm that good. I wish I could shot in Manual mode, but man is it hard...at least it is for me to figure out.
- I've NEVER drank a beer ever! I've tasted a little sip of Coor's light and to me it tasted nasty. Since then I will not drink beer of any kind. I'm not really a drinker any ways {if I do drink I'll drink pineapple juice and malibu rum.
- I had my first ever pedicure a couple weeks ago! Man I have seriously been missing out all these years! I will definetely be getting more! {even Jason went with me and got one - his first time as well}
- I HATE doing laundry. I don't mind putting the clothes in the washing machine but once their done, I fold them and put them in the basket and that's where they stay for about a week or so before I finally just put them away. But in that weeks time, I wash more clothes. So then I end up having even more clothes to put away. Its never ending!
I feel the same way about laundry. I also love photography and am trying to learn the manual mode, but it is really hard. What program do you use for editing? I'm not a fan of beer either. Yuck! You are a champ for giving birth with no drugs. :-)
ReplyDeleteI did natural on both boys and yes that ring of fire is legit! Thankfully the 2nd son was quicker and faster so I didn't have to experience it long. You do a great job photographing your sweet little gals!
ReplyDeleteCheck out you tube for some tutorial videos, specifically for your camera. Once it all "clicked" in my brain then shooting in manual wasn't all that hard anymore!
ReplyDeleteI'm the exact same way about laundry---I hate it!
So jealous of you giving birth THREE times with no drugs! I admire you for that big time. And I LOVE party planning as well. Although I didn't go crazy this year, I can't WAIT til Drew gets older so I can plan bigger parties! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome you gave birth with no drugs. I did it once and wish I would have done it again with my next two.
ReplyDeleteShooting in manual, is hard at first but once you know a little bit of your camera and how it works it's rather easy. The book understanding exposure, really helped me. Don't give up, keep trying!
........ and wow no beer? That's cool but you're definitely missing out! LOL not really, it's not all that great for you anyway :)
Oh an what do you mean by you got a cocktail? I'm clueless to what you mean.
thank you , I'll have to look for that book
Delete"Cocktail" is a drug I got with each of my girls that only last about an hour {thats what the nurses called it} it gave me an hour or so of pain relief.
Goodness I hate putting clothes away too! It's like the worst thing ever!
ReplyDeleteI'm another one that hates putting the laundry away! Seriously..I let piles of clean laundry sit in laundry baskets for a loong time. It's pretty ridic. I'm with ya on the planes as well! And, J and I have been together for 11 years too, high school sweethearts here ;) I also went natural (on accident) with Baby E and loove photography. So many similarities haha...although, I must admit I am a beer LOVER. Try something other than coor's light..yuck ;)
ReplyDeleteLaundry is no fun at all! I just hate hanging everything up. I feel like its never ending and I'm always doing it.
DeleteAwe, another couple who are high school sweethearts, I love it.
Maybe I will give a different kind of beer a try! :)
I loved learning more about you!
ReplyDeleteI hate beer so much...actually I hardly ever drink. I'm talking 1 drink a year, max. I'm also with you on the flying and fear of heights.
Love your pictures of the girls...they are so cute. Manual is hard, but just keep practicing! It will become second nature.
I do have to say, I love laundry, though!
