I love that I try to see the best about every situation -- notice I said "try".

Honestly, I don't know how you do it. Girl, I am in awe when I read about all you have going on. I hope that you know that you are an inspiration. Some days, I feel overwhelmed with everything and it's nice to have a reminder that other moms are busy too -- and that we CAN do it.

Good luck with the preg pics - I know they'll be wonderful!

Thanks for sharing the love, Steph! I'm excited to see you and everyone else this weekend.

I have a way easier time naming things I don't love about myself, but I'll try to play along.
Hmmm? I guess the one thing I love about myself is that I'm real. What you see is what you get. I can't be fake, or fake it very well. I actually had an employer reprimand me once because I don't hide what I'm feeling (as in one should always be smiley and cheerful- you know 24/7.) I am an open book, and I actually like that about myself. If you catch me on a bad day, I won't take it out on you, but you'll be able to tell how I'm feeling by just looking at my face.

2008-07-10T09:10:00.000-05:00

I just got my hair did yesterday and I LOVE it! I also love my eyes, although right now they are swollen from lack of coffee. They are big and brown and I think they are my best feature. I also think that I am kind and truthful.

Can't wait to see those pictures!

2008-07-10T08:08:00.000-05:00

I love how much I love my husband and kids and that I mostly do a great job of taking care of them. Except this week. And last week.

Which makes me love how forgiving I am! Hee hee.

I love that I could be vain and still have a wife,...

2008-07-10T06:08:00.000-05:00

I love that I could be vain and still have a wife, a 5-year old and 2-year old that would love me.

Soaking in love is wonderful isn't it!?

---What do you love about yourself?----

I love that I can make my children's eyes twinkle with delight. I love that I can still sit for hours on end with my husband and just chat about the nonsensical stuff. I love that I enjoy running around all day with the kids and still feel like there isn't enough hours in the day for more fun. I love that my best girl friends are from elementary, hs, and college days.I love that I'm meeting new and great friends everyday. I love that I have this life that has my family and friends surrounding it.

Sorry for the novel. Just when I couldn't think of what to write in my own blog! hehe

2008-07-09T18:37:00.000-05:00

I don't know how you do it Steph. latrly I feel like I am a mess. What do I love? I love that I am a little insane.

2008-07-09T15:03:00.000-05:00

I think you are amazing for staying so busy 30 weeks preggo with 3 little boys!

I love that I can be ready to go ANYWHERE in 10-15 minutes and feel confident when I get there.

Ahh, Steph...you are so incredible! I don't know ...

2008-07-09T13:19:00.000-05:00

Ahh, Steph...you are so incredible! I don't know how you do it! I can't wait to see what is a-happening tomorrow!!

As for myself, I love the fact that I'm never afraid to cry. I just let it all out!

2008-07-09T11:43:00.000-05:00

Have fun finding outfits for all those events coming up...and shoes!!! My husband does not understand the need to have more than four or five pair of shoes (and those include climbing and mountaineering shoes). He'd pass out if he saw your shoe collection, even more if he knew it's my dream to grow mine. =)

As for what I love about me....I love my red hair and green eyes, my ability to think quickly and help out people when they are in need, my cooking, my ability to be girlie but love primitive camping and outdoor climbing, and I currently love the fact that I finally have something to put into a bra thanks to pregnancy. Yeah, I know it's fleeting, but after asking God for boobs for 34 years, I'm going to be grateful for whatever I get, even if I still resemble a pear. =)

Right now, I'm lovin' my toenails! I'll post a pic of them later.

Good luck with figuring out what to wear! And thanks for sharing the love!

I love that I am cleaning cages for two new bunnies this week without too much fuss - boy, am I flexible!

2008-07-09T10:23:00.000-05:00

girl! you make me tired sometimes! i don't know how you do it ALL! super mom! and i can't wait to see the pics! i'm sure they turned out great!

what do i like about myself? my personality, the way my brothers and i look like each other, my ability to multi task.... i'm really good at that!!!

I'm not sure how you keep going! It makes me tired...

2008-07-09T09:47:00.000-05:00

I'm not sure how you keep going! It makes me tired reading all that you have on your plate, and I'm not pregnant. You're amazing!:)

Hmm...what do I love about myself? I love that I'm really good with makeup. I do bridal makeup at a salon, and I LOVE it. I love seeing brides transform on their wedding day. Even more, I love it when my friends ask me to do makeup for special occasions...or just because!
I like that I make friends easily, and I like that people say that I have an excellent sense of humor. And I like that I'm open-minded and do my best to not judge.

I don't know how you do it all, not to even mentio...

2008-07-09T09:19:00.000-05:00

I don't know how you do it all, not to even mention your 30 weeks along.I hope you are proud of yourself.

What I love about me? That I'm a lover and a giver. I do love that my crooked eyebrow frame my eyes. I've always loved my eyes.

I love that I am positive most of the time. I thi...

2008-07-09T09:15:00.000-05:00

I love that I am positive most of the time. I think I'm pretty. I'm a good cook. I love that I was able to finish school even with kids.

Hey, the great thing about being so busy is you can't fuss over being pregnant. It will make it go so much faster. Mine has. We have been busy for the last three months and it is hard to believe I'm due next week! Now, just in time, things have calmed down.

First of all I love that you're doing the belly sh...

2008-07-09T09:08:00.000-05:00

First of all I love that you're doing the belly shots. Have you done it before? I finally did it with my most recent babe and I love love love those pictures. Can't wait to see yours.

Okay, now what do I love about me?

I'm a straight shooter. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. It's good to be comfortable enough with who I am to do that.

Have a great time at all your "stuff" coming up!

Uh... what do I love about myself? I guess that I...

2008-07-09T09:07:00.000-05:00

Uh... what do I love about myself? I guess that I'm compassionate and yet practical. I might sit and cry with ya for a few, but then I'm going to help ya off the floor and tell you to get back at it. ;)

Have fun in Shecago this weekend!

Can I first say this? You are handling EVERYTHING ...

2008-07-09T08:50:00.000-05:00

Can I first say this? You are handling EVERYTHING with such grace and style that I'm in awe of you. Seriously, girl. You're a class act.

OK. What do I love about myself? I love my hair -- it's long and thick and I don't have to mess with it much. I love that I love to laugh and make others laugh. I love that I have a bedrock of strength in my soul that comes from knowing my Maker. I love that I can cook (finally, after all these years).

I love my singing voice. I am singing at a weddin...

2008-07-09T08:20:00.000-05:00

I love my singing voice. I am singing at a wedding this weekend and that is one of my favorite things to do in this life. I love being able to share it with others...

Thanks for Sharing the Love with all of us Steph!

Can't wait to hear your news too! Maybe after BlogHer you can get some rest?
