I will be "staying at home" with her until she's about 6 months old. Technically, I'll be going to internship 2 days per week & school on the weekends. Billy will have her then all to himself.
I believe I have talents (such as a natural ability to be empathetic, good active listening skills, passion in the field of counseling, a heart for advocacy) that need to be shared with as many children/adolescents/adults as possible, not just my own daughter. While I will give her and my hubby my very best, I do not feel it would do anyone justice to stay at home when I have so much to offer others. I feel like serving my community while I raise my daughter, so she will grow up in a safer, better world with happier little buddies. That way, if something ever happened to me, I could still impact her life by the things I did as she was growing up.
So I'll probably end up working at least part-time while she grows up. But we'll see how I feel when she gets here. :) -
Hm. I don't think anything he does "really" irritates me with a lot of emphasis, but he has a few quirks we can get into arguments over.
1) When he buys huge amounts of food at Sam's Club cause it's a "good deal" & then we can't eat it all (cause Hi, there are two of us).
2) When he won't follow directions to do something/put something together.
3) When he throws his clothes all over the place... like everywhere...
I think he's pretty easy to live with, all around, but those are a few things that I seem to nag about. -
I like Guster, Patty Griffin, Jack Johnson, Dwight Yokam, Eisley, Michael Jackson, Staind, Paramore, The Dixie Chicks, Coldplay - and various rappers... among 100 others.
The only two people/bands/whatever I listen to consistently and enjoy more than like... 5 songs = Guster & Patty Griffin.
But I enjoy listening to the radio all the time, hearing new stuff, etc. I'm just a mixed CD type of girl. -

As good as I can be, yeah. And where I lack, Billy will make up for it as a father.

Doesn't bother me at all, as long as they're not my clients and don't do it creepily. I think most of the time they feel like they're touching the "baby" and not really *my* stomach.
Since I feel like there are intentions are pure, I don't feel like it's an invasion of space, though sometimes it does make me laugh. -
I will be home with Evia for about 6 weeks before my internship starts back up. At that time, I will go to internship twice per week, and I'll sometimes have class on the weekends.
On the weekends when I have class, B will watch her by himself (or my parents/sister might keep her). Through the week, we haven't decided yet. We will probably get a nanny for those two days or she will stay with family.
After I graduate, she'll be about 5 months old, and I may try to work part-time for a while before going into a full-time job. I *might* be going straight into a Doctoral program, which would lead to a totally different agenda.
It all just really depends to be honest. But I do have the first 6 weeks planned out, at least. B is taking a few weeks of "maternity leave" at this time as well. -
I'm feeling pretty good - my morning sickness is down to about once or twice per week, usually with no vomiting! Accomplishment! I feel the little one move every day now, mostly on my right side. We did pick out a name - Evia Louise. You pronounce Evia (Ev-ee-uh). I'm doing lots of schoolwork, cheering on B's wrestling team (State Championship is this coming weekend) and taking care of myself/little Evia. Oh! And B bought me a hamster! Hah!

I am. It has been around soooo long and has such a history behind it, but it was stopping my creativity because I felt frozen there. Keep in touch with me, though!
-
South America is my number one priority. I'd love to visit Chile. I'd enjoy visiting Thailand, too, and maybe Australia or somewhere in Africa. I'm not one of those people who is real big on visiting like... Paris... or London... though I suppose I wouldn't argue with a trip there, either. :)
-
I hope she has my round nose, dimples, and freckles. I hope she has Billy's strength, eyelashes, smooth skin, and blonde-tipped hair.
I wouldn't mind for her to have my sister's vibrant blue eyes... mine are much more gray. -
Deceased celebrity?
Not really a "celebrity", but one of my top picks would be Vincent van Gogh... because his paintings are remarkably sad and I would have loved to hear how he processed his life and the lives of people around him. So interesting.
Deceased relative?
That's a rough one... I feel odd picking. Probably my Mamaw on my dad's side, because she would be SOOO excited to hear about the baby, and she was so sweet, but strong & opinionated, and I just miss hearing her voice. -
-
Yeah. Any questions that put me at risk of losing my job, hurting my clients or my family, etc.
-
Because I pretty much decide what is a word and what isn't. Dictionary.com consults me regularly for my opinion.
-
My sense of humor.
The reason why? A sense of humor, in turn, would also make her:
Attractive, Fun to be around, More relaxed, Stronger, Easy on herself, Quick to make friends, etc. -
It's a beautiful girl! :) No name yet!

Depends which weekend it is.
Friday morning I'll usually sleep in after B goes off to work. Wake up, eat something, take a shower, watch TV, blog.
Around 3:30pm, I leave to go to class. I stay there until about 8:30pm at night. During class I eat Peanut M&M's, laugh at my friends, and text my hubby. He's at wrestling until I'm out of class usually.
Get home. Eat dinner w/ hubby and/or friends. Maybe go watch a movie. Call friends.
Saturday I wake up around 8:00, leave for class by 8:30am, and stay until 4pm. B usually has a wrestling tourney (from November-February) so I may stop by there. Afterwards we'll all go out, maybe downtown, then come home and watch SNL & spend time with hubby.
Sundays = cleaning, lazy, maybe go to church, chase Millie around, etc. -
I have a history of depression, I have anxiety, family history, most of our family ("support system") lives at least an hour away and won't be around all the time, I have a history of PMDD, etc. Most of the risk factors can be Googled if you want to know more about them.
-
This was a great question/challenge quite honestly. You get points.
I've answered this a million different ways. The best one I could come up with?
I'd never want to see the person I was in my early teenage years: scared, attention-seeking, sick, and selfish. I never want to see her again.
