5 songs you danced to: The Hot Dog song, Good King Wencleas (I did an Irish gig for DS), Shut Up and Dance With Me, Thinking Out Loud, The Wobble Baby.
4 movies/shows/plays you loved: The Office (we watched it on Netflix), The Minion Movie, Parks and Rec (currently watching on Netflix) and Vacation (the new one with Ed Helms, so funny!). Okay, this one was actually hard.
3 things you read: Chose the Wrong Guy, Gave Him the Wrong Finger and The Cinderella Murder.
2 things you learned: It's okay to admit that you have no idea what you're doing as a mom and how to clean poop out of a car seat.
1 moment you never want to forget: The moment Little Man looked at me like he actually knew who I was. I wasn't just a milk machine there to keep him fed. He looked at me like, "hey, I remember hearing your voice for nine months. I know who you are." Best moment ever!

Or maybe the first time he kissed me. That was so sweet. Or his first on purpose smile. Of the first time I made him laugh. Or the first hug. It was all awesome. I just want to remember it all.

5 songs you danced to - Y'all. I am the worst white girl dancer you've ever seen. So bad. (It doesn't stop me, but only when nobody's looking!)

2 things you learned - I CAN DO THIS!!!, and nothing - even the worst of things - lasts forever
1 moment you never want to forget - seeing my baby the moment he exited my body; yeah there was a surgical curtain and I didn't get to hold him first but it was still the best, even through all the recovery, PPA/PPD, BF/EP misery, and all the yucky stuff he's still the best and I would do it ALL again.

5 songs you danced to
V and I dance to somewhere beyond the sea and once upon a dream all the time, and I've have the Lava song stuck in my head since I saw the short. And I'm bad with sing names so can't think of anything else.

4 movies/shows/plays you loved
DH and I saw a local production of Les Mes and a high school production of The Adams Family that were both a lot of fun. I loved Star Wars and Inside Out

3 things you read
Well I read a Goosebumps book the other day. And I've read Fox in a socks a million times. And DH read the BFG to V while I was nursing. Wait, no I did read The Selection and Inkheart series, both a mixture of books and audiobooks.


2 things you learned
Well I've figured out how to put a carseat in a car. Did not know that before this year. And I have learned that being a mom has changed my lide, but I'm still me.

1 moment you never want to forget
The first time I sang to V. He was crying and I started singing to him the first thing in my head (which was the lion sleeps tonight) and started crying myself. It was really the first moment I started to actually connect with V.

I have so, so many. I think I'll say waking up in labor with DS. I was 41 weeks pregnant and trying to accept that I would be induced in 2 days, and I woke up at 230 in the morning with contractions. I thought, okay, baby, let's do this. We can do this together.
