Here are my answers to The Pinterested Parent’s questions:

1. What is your favorite blog post & why?

My favorite blog post that I have written myself that I like? Probably both of my birth stories. Both experiences really were amazing and I was proud to be able to have a homebirth for both and share that with the world. Possibly to be an encouragement to another mom that she can have a natural labor too.
2. I’m a lover of travel. Of anywhere you have ever been, what is your favorite destination & why?

I’ve been to Hong Kong, Rome, Paris, New York, Florida, Colorado, Missouri, Georgia, Skiing in Pennsylvania for some of my most recent travels. I think My favorite as just a couple with no kids was either Paris or New York. With kids would have to be Disney in Orlando Florida. 
3. Where would you visit if you could go anywhere in the world & why?

I still really want to visit Australia. Not really any one reason but that I’m interested. We were pretty close when we went to Hong Kong and found out that a lot of people from Australia like to vacation to Hong Kong – go figure!
4. Use five words to describe yourself

Researcher, Thinker, Friendly, Health-minded, and Christ follower
5. Where do you draw inspiration for your posts from?

Mostly just from life. My family, my church, my city, a book I may be reading. 
6. If money were all of a sudden, no object, what would be the first thing you would do?

Travel probably and also go see my family in Louisiana. 
7.What did you want to be when you grew up? Are you, now?

When I was in the six grade, we had a career week where different parents came in to tell us about their jobs. One lady came and talked about being a speech therapist. I thought it was the coolest job I had ever heard of. From that day on that was the only thing I knew I wanted to be (besides being a mom). So I went on and go my Master’s degree in Speech Pathology. I worked 3 years before decided to be a full time stay at home mom. I still love speech research and keep up on my continuing education. I will probably return to work once my kids aren’t so little. 
8. What is your favorite T.V show. I’m am all about the ‘Big Bang Theory’ I just love those nerds.

The Big Band Theory is a favorite. My favorite would have to be How I met your mother or the Office as a classic. I also love Master Chef, Once upon a time, and Shark tank. 
9. How long have you been blogging?

About a year and a 1/2
10. Do you speak more than one language? If so which languages do you speak?

I speak 2 year old, lol. I took 12 hours of Spanish and still can’t carry a conversation. I also took some sign language courses… but if you don’t use it, you lose it : /
