Health knowledge made personal

3. In 2004, I spent a summer abroad in Australia and New Zealand. That trip changed my life. I actually get really emotional just thinking about the memories and friendships I made there.  5. In high school, I won the senior superlative for "Most Likely to Be a Stand Up Comedian." Not even close!!! 6. Being a mother has been the most amazing, emotional, exhausting, confusing, and difficult roller coaster ride and I love it.  7. I can wrap both legs behind my head and roll around in a ball. Can anyone else do this? I'm such a freak. 8. My Great Aunt was rescued from a concentration camp by her brother (my Great Uncle) who disguised himself as an German Soldier. 9. Folding laundry is extremely therapuetic for me. I'm sure Dan doesn't mind this (although I despise doing the dishes so it's a fair trade ;) ) 10. I get a weird satisfaction out of recycling something. If I see glass, paper, or plastic in your trash can, I WILL pull it out and recycle it. 11. My Mom and Grandma share a birthday (September 1) and I share a birthday with my Great Grandma (September 5). Four generations of women and two birthdates... and only 4 days apart from having us all share the same date! That just blows my mind. No pressure or anything if I have a girl.  A Mix of Maddie and Callie 's Questions - 1. Why do you blog? After being with Ryan all day, I love this little space to call my own. I love the friendships I've made and having such a fun little space to store memories, write, and connect with other people with similar interests. 2. What is the first blog you read everyday? It depends on what is showing up in my google reader! But I check twitter, instagram, and facebook when I first wakeup. 3. Where is the strangest place you've vacationed? I've been to Russia but not sure if that is "strange". 4. How do you think people would describe you? Awkward. Definitely awkward. But hopefully funny, caring, and a good listener would be thrown out there as well. 5. Who is the most famous person you have ever met? Well I met Justin Timberlake, Lance Bass, and JC Chavez in 1999. I only had to crawl under two fences and sprint past a security guard to do so. You don't mess with a teenybopper. 6. iPhone or Android? iPhone. Always. 7. Have you ever broken anything? Bones no. Everything else, yes. I'm a klutz! 8. Did you play sports? I played soccer for 11 years and played the first semester of college. Also played basketball in high school. 9. How much sleep do you get? Anywhere from 4-7 hours a night. I used to get a solid 9 hours every night but things have changed a bit since Ryan came along! 10. Favorite Healthy Snack? Greek yogurt with sliced banana! 11. What is on the top of your bucket list? Climb to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. Someday! Questions For My Friends: 1. If you could have your picture taken with one living person, who would it be? 2. What is your favorite book? 3. How old would you be if you didn't know your real age? 4. If you could offer a newborn baby only one bit of advice, what would it be? 5. Would you rather lose all of your old memories, or never be able to make new ones? 6. What is your all time favorite dessert? 7. What is the first thing you do when you wake up? 8. If you won one million dollars, what would you buy first? 9. What is your worst habit? 10. What are you really good at? 11. What are you doing tomorrow? I Tag...

Does anyone else love eating soup out of a mug? It just tastes so much better than from a bowl. Dan and I made Julie's Broccoli Cheese Soup tonight and it came out perfectly. Such a healthy and delicious way to enjoy the Super Bowl!

11 Random Amy Facts:
1. I was born in New York, went to college in Washington, DC, moved to Boston for a year after graduation, decided I was too cold there and randomly moved to San Diego. I met Dan out there (he lived out there for 7 years before he met me) but convinced him to move to Charleston, SC because I wanted to live near my parents when we had children. Success! :)
2. I met one of my best friends on the internet in 1996. We are still extremely close to this day!
