DADDY'S CORNER MEME...

I was tagged by Tammy to do this meme and since I have been so preoccupied lately and neglecting my blog, I thought I would make the time to get this one done.

{Start Copy Here}

Started by Mitchteryosa

Rules:

1) Copy from {Start Copy Here} to {End Copy Here}.
2) Blog 'Brag' about your husband - yes, the father of your children. As I’ve said singles may also join by bragging about their own fathers, or even grandfathers. It doesn’t matter! Of course, Daddy bloggers themselves may also join, but you have to blog about your fathers and not about yourselves, deal? Okay. Good.
3) Add your blog in the master list below linking to the post that you just made. Or if you wish, do it as how I’ve done it in my other blog by adding a new page.
4) Leave your comment here and don't forget to leave your link so you can be added on the masterlist. Yup. Here. Thanks!
5) Let’s not forget Peppermint Creative for the corner border I used for the badge.

My kids are lucky to have such a wonderful father. He is always there for them and does what he can to help make their biggest dreams come true. Whether it's watching Jays basketball games with a smile on his face and cheering him on to cuddling and tickling little Blake and spending that one on one time with him while the other kids are in school to giving Kohl that little bit extra special attention that he needs to crying at Trinity's dance recitals, he is always there to show the kids how proud he is of them. This super dad is also my hero! He helps with the cleaning, the laundry, always doing renovation projects that I throw at him, oh and my favorite he makes the kids lunches every night and gets the kids up and ready for school so that I can have a few extra minutes of sleep in the morning ( ok...the truth... I am suppose to get on the treadmill at this time).

3. I already have a good majority of Christmas shopping finished and more ideas (just need the money)

4. I just turned 31 on March 23rd. This is the first year I can remember sharing my birthday with the Easter holiday.

5. School was closed early the other day and my kids had to stay there for 3 hours before I know school was cancelled. They enjoyed themselves in the gym. The sun was shining and it wasn't snowing so why in the heck did they cancel. I now won't leave home without charging my cell phone first.

6. Mid April I will be dancing with my daughter for the dance competitions birthday bash..In order for the dancers to participate in one of the dances on of the parents have to participate as well. Now if you know me I won't let my kids down. This could be interesting! I will post about it when it comes time LOL

7. One thing that keeps me happy is renovation projects.... I always have something on the go! If not I will tear something apart to make a project...New windows in a couple of weeks so I'm sure there will be lots to keep me busy.

Well that is it for now. I'm sure I could think of some more but I will save them for another time!

Feel free to do this meme. I am off to bed so I won't be tagging anyone specific. If you are reading then this one is for you! Have fun. Let me know when you get it posted :o)

7 Random / Weird things about me

I was tagged by Mel to do this meme about 7 random or weird things about me...here it goes!

FIRST:

1. Link to your tagger and post these rules on your blog

2. Share seven facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird

3. Tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs

4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog

OK LET'S SEE NOW...

1.I am very hard on myself (whether it's with my appearance or anything else about me. I am filled with guilt and most times I have nothing to feel guilty about)

2. I just found a new addiction....running on the treadmill ( an addiction to exercise can only benefit me in the long run so I will take it! I am buying one for myself next week :0)

3. I tuck in my children every night many times from the time they go to bed until I go to bed and I am sure I would do it more if I wasn't sleeping (most nights if I wake up I have to go check on them again!)

4. If I could afford it I would take dance classes with my daughter! (although my hips probably couldn't handle it LOL)

5.I shower with my 3 year old sitting on my feet ( not my choice, he loves playing in the water and our shower is very small so he has to sit on my feet)

6.I am an overprotective mother who probably smothers her children...I am getting better at giving them their space and making some of their own decisions...they know it's because I love them very very much :0)

7. Today I left my kids at school for 2 hours alone with the school principle...what a great mom I am.... Heck the sun was shining and it was a clear day so why would I have expected the schools to be closed early. No signs of a storm coming this way... (I will tell about it in another post!lol)

Now I am going to pass this along to Jenn, Matt, Darlene, Jocelyn, Tammy, Misty and Juliana!

***TAGGED BY KIM...

I was tagged a few days back from Kim and I think that it is time that I get this posted for her. So here it goes...

Rule #1
Copy all the links below and replace a single link under the appropriate alphabet. If your domain name, or even the title of your blog, starts with an ” A,” you’d replace the link under that alphabet and put the replaced link at the bottom. Also, don’t forget to credit the tagger, or where you got the list from, at the end of the list with a full URL of the post so that a pingback gets generated.
1. A. acowboyswife.com
2. B. bloggingcents.com
3. C. caffeine-overload.com
4. D. delusionsofgrandeur.com
5. E. everythingandanythingblog.com
6. F. forumfinder.net

8. H. happykeg.com

10. J. juliesjournal.com

24. X. xaviermedia.com
25. Y. yimto.com
26. Z. zbudapest.com

Replaced link: rowdigrl.com
Previous tagger: thinking-outloud.com

Rule #2
You now have to “tag” at least five people and encourage them to participate so that this thing spreads like a virus. Remember, though, that not everyone’s into these kinds of things, so don’t be upset if they don’t participate. Just simply replace your tag. Remember to tag blogs only and no pornographic ones as we do want to keep the integrity as a blogging community. TIP: Tag your frequent EntreCard droppers via its messaging system.

I am tagging...
The Males Perspective, Hip Mama Blog, It's a Woman's World, Enjoying the Ride and Mommey's Gibble Gabbles

Rule #3
Just like any other “meme” out there, ask a question for your taggees to answer along with your own answer to your previous question. This is optional.

***BAND MEME

Here's how it works -
You are about to have your own band's CD cover.


Follow these directions to the letter.
Go to......


1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:RandomThe first article title on the page is the name of your band.


2. http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3The last four words of the very last quote is the title of your album.


3. http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/The third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Ok here I go...

The name of my band is CATHAY DE GRANDE!
