Question/Answer time

Just for my husband....we all know how he enjoys this stuff. If you need to ask...yes...I will force him to read this:



1: What is the best thing about being a mom? I would have to say that it is watching Ikie become himself. His little personality is already starting to show. He is a wild man, but very kind and loving. He loves to be loud and show us his muscles even though he is a such a little guy.

2. What is the toughest part of being a mom? For me, this is discipline. I am such a softy with this guy. Devin gets mad at me because he does try to discipline and I always tell him to give into Ikie. Devin usually quotes me because I tell him.."oh, he is not hurting anything...just let him be." Devin will tease me and exagerate the situation and say "ok, lets just let him play with knives." Another tough part is learing to eat really fast. I really love food and love to enjoy it. Ikie always knows when I am trying to eat! GRRR.

3. What television mom do you compare yourself to? I really can't say. I am not a Mrs. Brady or Mrs. Cosby. I am not a Peggy Bundy. Maybe a little like Debra from Everybody Loves Raymond. I say that because I am usually just a little agitated with Devin the way that Debra is with Ray. I am agitated that women have to multi-task. I am agitated that I am so tired all time.

4. What suprises me with Ikie? I am so surprised at how much my kid loves fruits and vegetables. I honestly believe that his body is craving them because he did not get one fruit or vegetable the entire 9 months that I was pregnant. I was starving and wanted pizza, hot dogs, and foods like that!

1. Best part about being a mom is a love like no other. Loving and caring for this little person who is a part of you, who you made and who was inside of you for 9 mos. It is truly miraculous!!

2. Hardest part about motherhood, I would have to say, lack of sleep. I am tired a lot but feel like as a mom, I can't ever act tired, look tired or complain about being tired.

3. Kendra Wilkinson - because we both have big boobs - except mine are real!! :) lol And I worry about my body image, getting it back and love to be goofy!!

4. Surprised by? How early Benny gets up!! Both Andy and I love to sleep in and it seems, no matter how late we keep him up, he gets up like clockwork - every morning by 5:45!! We want to try an train him to sleep in like us on the weekends:) Don't know if it will ever happen!!!

Fun post Amanda!! Thanks for involving your readers:) Miss ya!
