Hi, I'm Vanessa!

Here are a few facts about me:

I never thought I would love being a Mom as much as I do.  It helps that I have an amazing kid who is ridiculously adorable and makes me laugh every single day.  I can't wait to have another one (two, or three) just like her!
My amazing kid who is ridiculously adorable and makes me laugh every single day.
 
I am not a morning person.  It doesn't matter what time I go to bed the night before.  I hate mornings.  I am a set four alarms on my cell phone and hit snooze on all four alarms person. 

I have an extremely foul mouth.  I can't help it.  It's just part of my vocabulary.  I blame my Dad. But I try really hard not to swear in my blog posts. 

I am a super duper Twilight fan.  I mean, I'm not a t-shirt wearing, tote bag wielding, fleece blanket on the couch kind of fan but I do love Twilight.  100 days until the final movie.  (oh and yea, my blog name, which Twilight movie is that from?)

Christmas is my favorite holiday.  I love finding the perfect gifts.  I love decorating.  I love baking.  I love seeing homes decorated with lights.  I love everything about it.  And I get crazy into it.  Like I have an on-going list of all people I buy gifts for and what gifts I want to buy or have bought.  Then I wait until all of the gifts have arrived and then separate them based on who they are for.  Every person gets their own wrapping paper and gift tags.  I'm a little psycho.

I have never lived more than 15 minutes away from my parents.  Is that strange?

My favorite color is pink, favorite candy is Twix and I LOVE pasta.

If you follow me I will most likely follow you back.  If you comment on a post or page, I will always reply. 

I started my blog when I found out I was pregnant last year as a way to document my pregnancy and it has turned into so much more for me.  I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoy writing it.

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore!    Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited!   I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do.  We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting!  My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster!  So exciting!   PS:  Notice the blog title?!
