11 Facts about me
Answer the 11 questions given to me
Nominate 11 people
Create 11 questions for them to answer

I'm not going to post the 11 facts again since I just did that on Liebster Award #1 but I am going to answer the questions!
1. Girls go for guys with skills be it hacking skills or Nunchuck skills but girls have skills too! What skills do you have? Do an involve baking? Will you bring me some cookies?
--I have crazy organizational skills and I'm a pretty good cook. I like to bake but I'm better at cakes and pies. I could try cookies.
2. What skill have you never mastered that you would love to try?
--Sewing. I have no idea how to sew. Not by hand, not with a machine, not any way.
3. Favorite book?
--I'm not ashamed to admit that the Twilight series is my favorite. I just coudlnt' put those books down! Water for Elephants is a close second.
4. Favorite historical figure (yea, I'm making these pretty simple but I'm tired....all the time).
--I'm not really sure what to say here. I've never really thought about this. I'm going to go with all of the responders from 9/11. They are historical to me.

5. When was the last time you felt well rested?
--I don't even remember. Sometime before this pregnancy, that's for sure.
6. What is one thing you have built or made that you are really proud of (for this discussion, kids don't count)?
--Well I don't know if it counts but I made my husband this awesome Father's Day gift last year. I got a three picture frame and printed three pictures of Baby Girl holding the letters DAD. It turned out so well. I'm going to take new pictures and fill the frame every year.
7. What modern fads/habits do you not understand? Or are intentionally avoiding?
--I don't understand skinny jeans. I really just don't see how they can be comfortable. And fake eyelashes. Oh and I saw a picture of Justin Bieber (barf) the other day and I could see his entire ass. Um....belt much?
8. What fictional character do you most identify with?
--I actually googled 'what fictional character am I' and I took a quiz that says I'm most like Hermione. I know that's Harry Potter but no idea what it means!
9. What fictional character do you aspire to be more like?
--Again...no idea. Super Woman? So I can do it all?
10. Take a mental vacation, where do you go? What's for dinner? Is there chocolate? Coffee?
--Mexico. I can still smell the BBQ chicken and taste the blue pina coladas.
11. What super power do you want? What super power do you have? (two in one)
--I think I'd want to be able to read minds. I would love to know what people are thinking.


My nominees:
I am nominating EVERYONE! I don't care how big or small your blog is. Everyone deserves to know how great their blog is. I don't want anyone to feel obligated to answer my questions. If you would like to answer them, please feel free to do so.
My questions:
1. What is the one thing you can't live without?
2. If you could live forever, would you?
3. Would you break the law to save a loved one?
4. If you had to teach someone something, what would you teach them?
5. How old would you choose to be if you didn't know?
6. If happiness was the national currency, what kind of work would make you rich?
7. Are you the kind of friend that you would want to have as a friend?
8. If you could get one message out to a large group, what would your message be?
9. When was the last time you tried something new? What was it?
10. Do you think that babies have thoughts even though they don't know any words?
11. If you could offer only one piece of advice to a newborn baby, what would it be?

I tried to pick real though provoking questions rather than every day, run of the mill questions. I hope to see people answering them!  If you do answer them, let me know.  I'd love to read your answers!

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?!
