My favorite things..

There are so many things that I am thankful for and so many wonderful people that I am blessed to have in my life. I have an unbelievable circle of friends. They are some of the most wonderful, caring, loving, and funny people I have ever met. There are there for me in good times and in bad times. They are always there to lend a hand, a shoulder, or an ear. They never judge me, always support me, and fill my life with such joy and happiness. I love you all, each and everyone one of you. Some of you are miles away, some of you live across the street. Either way, I love you all equally. As you can see, I am super duper emotional right now with this pregnancy!!!

So, onto a few of my favorite things in life....
1.Most importantly, my family and friends. I have the most supportive family and girl could ever dream of having. My sister, my mother, and my father are my number one fans. My in-laws are my cheerleaders. All of them care about our well being, make sure we are happy and healthy, and most importantly, taken care of. We love you all!
2.My son. I can't even begin to imagine life without him. How did I even live before having him? He has made me a better person. He has made my life complete.
3. David- the man of my dreams. The guy who stole my heart at 20 years old after meeting him on Spring Break in Cancun. Here we are 11 years later and happier than ever!
4. Philosophy products. Falling in love is my favorite Philosophy scent. To die for!
5. Chicken fingers, Carrabba's Caesar Salad, Chocolate, Cookies, Soda, Apple Cider, and junk, junk, and more junk!
6. Traveling. I have been blessed since childhood to have traveled the world, literally! My parents are avid travelers and travel to foreign countries each year. As a kid, I was lucky enough to go to Egypt(yes, I rode a camel), Israel, Mexico, Spain, Bahamas, Puerto Rico, and many other wonderful places. I hope that I can offer the same experiences to my children.
7. NYC. There is so much to do...even the people watching is amazing. Been going to the City since I can remember as it isn't more than an hour or so from my hood in NJ. Xmas time is so beautiful. If you've never been during the holidays, you must must must get your bootie there!
8. My house. It's so comfy and cozy. It really represents us as a family. I'd like to say it's a bit shabby chic. It's adorned with tons of mementos and great family pics. My favorite pic on the wall is that of my 94 yr old grandmother holding Alex for the first time.
9. Shopping...duh! Some of my favorite places to shop: Nordstrom, Bloomies, Ann Taylor Loft, Old Navy, XMAS Tree Shoppes, Sephora, Towson Town Center, NYC, Tampa, FL.
10. Photography. I love taking pictures, I always have. As I got older, I became more interested in how a photo can really come together with all of the right elements. For mother's day this year, Dave and Alex gave me a Canon. It's an awesome camera. I am still trying to figure out how to work it but it takes fantastic pictures. I love it. Check it out if you're looking to upgrade from a point and shoot camera to a DSLR.

11. Reality TV and TV in general. I get so sucked into some of these shows that it's embarrassing to even admit to you that I watch them. Some of my guilty pleasures: The Bad Girls Club. OMG these girls are whack. Some of the shit they do floors me but it's almost like I am living vicariously through them in some strange but real way. 16 and Pregnant. I feel so bad for these girls.I'm just glad I was a late bloomer and wasn't having sex at 16. My parents would have ripped me a new one if I came home knocked up in high school. The Hills. Yes I watched this show and loved it. Glee- AWESOME! Desperate Housewives. I watch this show religiously even if I have to watch it the next day on DVR. Gotta love DVR. Oprah. Wow, I will miss her show especially after today. Did you see all of the stuff she gave away today? Bling, Flat screen, a cruise, Tory Burch Bag, Nikon DSLR....OMG!!! Ellen. White girl has some moves!

Okay, my brain is fried and Alex is calling for me. Blogging is fun but takes up a bit too much time, time that I don't always have. But hey, it's worth it and it's fun! xoxo
