Help, I'm Stuck!

I feel like I'm in an unbelievably boring rut lately. It's not boring to me, but I'm in the midst of this milky sweet love affair with a new baby, and it's all I want to talk about right now. I know I need to talk about other things, because you are all probably like, "Yeah, you had a baby, WE GET IT." It doesn't help that I hit my peak as a blogger with Tommy's birth story. I really can't top that, unless I save a stranger's life with an emergency tracheotomy, and since I haven't watched ER in YEARS, that's probably not likely to happen.

I always love it when Beth does her question posts, so I'm going to be unoriginal and steal that idea. Ask me a question about ANYTHING. I have very few filters on what I talk about, so ask away! Even if you don't usually comment, please come out of lurkdom and ask something. Then I can answer the questions in a separate posts, thus saving me from being an uber-boring blogger.

In other possibly boring to some of you news, Tommy is a month old, and I can't believe it. I feel like I blinked and missed his brand new stage, because it can't be over already.

I want to know about your family. The other day you mentioned your sister and I was like oh yeah... I totally forgot she had one.

Ryley said...

ummm.. maybe I'll think of some more questions through out the day but the only one i can think of right now is that i was wondering what the age difference was between you and shane.
but i'll keep thinking! :)

Megan said...

Why are you so awesome? No, really. How can I be as cool as you? :P

Julie said...

I read the title of this post and thought it said, "Help me, I suck!". I would like to know what your career plans look like. Plan to stay in the classroom? Move 'up'? (It's the best question I've got right now, sorry!)

Renée aka Mekhismom said...

Do you have plans to start a business related to your love of make-up?

Heather said...

i love hearing you talk about how in love you are with your baby - my babies are 24 and 21 - i miss those days!

Ryley said...

I Promise I'm not obbsessed with food (except I am) so.. if you could only eat 1 thing for a year what would it be?
And what would be your perfect last meal??
What foods to you absolutely hate and why???

If there were no other factors envolved how many kids would you have???

If Tommy had been a girl what would his name (or her name) have been?

What is one thing you want to do before you die??

ok.. going back to think of more! :)

Jade said...

What got you started blogging in the first place and what have you loved/hated most about it?
And yeah...how are you so awesome?! :)

Mommy Mo said...

What make-up would you recommend for me- nice but not too expensive and what colors? You haven't met bet in person but you've seen my picture : ). Especially the eyes, I want sexy eyes- HA!

What where you like to vacation?

what are your top 3 fiction books to read?

How did you get so much time off for maternity leave?

Bacardi Mama said...

I never tire of hearing stories about Tommy. They grow up so fast. Savor these days. I'd like to know besides Shane and the boys, if you were stranded on an island, what three things would you have to have? Not the obvious things like food.

Maricris Zen Mama said...

I feel like I fell off the edge of the earth and Tommy is already a month old! Happy 1st monthsary! - I'm glad everything is well and good with you. - Now let's see, what's the biggest challenge you have having another baby?

tinycandi said...

I always love the question and answer posts! I don't have a whole lot of followers...but I wanted to do a Q&A. Now you know the secret behind why I had a gift card giveaway. ;)

ANYWAY...

I ran across some old pictures the other day. And it had all the pictures of the quote posters on my wall...back when you and I started making those. And I *still* have the one that you made me. ;) Gosh it's hard to believe how long ago that was...almost 10 years!

SO...mu question:
1) If you were to make a quote poster right now...what quote would you use?

Kelsi said...

I'm chiming in to ask about your teacher-plans. Staying home? Returning to work?

keely said...

so, uh, i had a choice of courses to take to start my MFA work (yeah!) and had to take an elective english course and opted for the gothic novel instead of the john steinbeck course.

my question: are you going to murder me with a gun or a knife?

pinkflipflops said...

Where did you go to college, what was your major/minor?

~love said...

okay, did you love NKOTB? which one?

worst food ever?

if you could only pick ONE, what is the quality you most wish to instill in luke & tommy?

Mendie said...

Ohhh...I love this idea! There are some good questions, and it made me think about something I have wondered. Besides the whole delivery on the stairs example, it seems like you had a prety smooth and happy pregnancy. And you looked fabulous the whole time!!! Go you!

What advive would you give to someone who is going to begin TTC? Is there anything you wish you would have done/known before/during your first pregnancy to make it easier/better for you and the baby?

Beth at I Should Be Folding Laundry said...

Let's see...tap, tap, tap. What do we want to know about Erin.

Okay, here's a question, has anyone ever made you an awesome waffle cone? What was it like and who made it, by the way?

How quickly can you eat a bacon cheeseburger from Redamak's?

And last but not least, have you any fears of animals?
