Now. I just have to wait til June. The training is June 26-28th. I’ll have to drive almost an hour away each of those days, but it’ll so be worth it!

I’m so excited!

ABC’s of Me – C

*Cai - Our second son’s middle name. I hated it when I first heard it. Zach had loved it for years – he got it out of some sci-fi book…I refused to allow that to be the basis of our son’s name. I didn’t want it to be his first name (as I have a thing about the ‘flow’ of first and middle names…) I researched and found out it was Welsh for Rejoice – perfect

*Chiropractor - I love mine with all that is in me!

*Cesarean Section – how our first son was born.

*Candy - I love it. Too much.

*Butterfingers - I had never eaten once til about 8 months ago…and I quickly discovered it is my most favorite candy bar. Zach and I fight over them, as he loves them too

*Baking - love it and wish I had time to do more of it, specifically, desserts.

I found out from Cindy at Fenced In Family Blog that Heart of the Matter was running a fun ‘get to know you’ meme. I was so excited, I had to join in! Basically, each week day between now (now, meaning this past Monday, lol) and May 26th, you share information about you & your family with the corresponding letter…confused? Good, go here to find out more info…and join in!!! (And just so you know, I’m copying Cindy and doing A, B, and C to catch up, lol)

So, a couple days late…

*AIO (All-In-One) cloth diapers – we love these as they help family members and baby sitters with our cloth diapering!

*Alphabetical order – We keep all our DVDs/Videos in alphabetical order…nerds? Yes, you betcha…
