It's time for the 3rd Thoughtful Thursday with The DeShazo, with the 3rd set of random questions.
41. Do you have any magazine subscriptions? -Nope
42. Which are better: legos or lincoln logs? -I have no idea
43. Are you stubborn? -Maybe. Probably. Definitely, yes.
44. Who is better: Leno or Letterman? -I'm asleep when they are on. Aren't they both retired now?
45. Ever watch soap operas? -I used to watch em'.
46. Are you afraid of heights? - I mean, I'm not gonna bungee jump. However, roller coasters or things like that don't bother me.
47. Do you sing in the car? - Yep
48. Do you sing in the shower? -Don't think so.
49. Do you dance in the car? -Probably
50. Ever used a gun? -Yep.
51. Last time you got a portrait taken by a photographer? -Last September for fall family photos. Oh wait... maybe it was in December with Kevin's family.
52. Do you think musicals are cheesy? -Most of them. You ain't catching me watching the Sound of Music. Ever.
53. Is Christmas stressful? - Some things we do around Christmas time are stressful- but I reckon those things ought to be eliminated. The holiday, meaning and spirit of it itself are not stressful.
54. Ever eat a pierogi? -I don't believe so since I can't even pronounce that.
55. Favorite type of fruit pie? -Apple with lots of cinnamon and sugar. Unless a blackberry cobbler counts- and then let's go with that.
56. Occupations you wanted to be when you were a kid? - Lawyer & teacher
57. Do you believe in ghosts? -I believe there are things not to be dabbled in.
58. Ever have a Deja-vu-feeling? -Yep
59. Ever take a daily vitamin? -Nope. (and I surely hope The DeShazo confesses all the ones she takes)
60. Do you wear slippers? -Only when I'm not home on my own floors...and sometimes...not even then. I wonder if need those for Disney???? Oh no.....

Disney, here we come!
Well folks, the Martin's are going to Disney. It's happening. Next week.
There are approximately 500 things running through my head and I don't even know why because the planning of the trip has fallen on my dear friend, Melissa and Martinez....but mostly Melissa.
Bless their hearts.
I'm excited about having an actual vacation with my little family all together. I'm also super crazy in my head thinking of all the different scenarios of Beckham on the plane. I'm sure hoping our plane- mates are in a great mood because I've chewed my nails off thinking about it and they throb.
Months and months ago, I decided to visit Pinterest in search of Disney information. For the record.... I knew nothing (and still don't know a lot). Only this year, have I learned that Disneyland and Disney World are different and that we would be going to the world.
Melissa has been very informative.
After sending her message after message of all these things Pinterest said I needed to know before going to Disney World, we decided it best that I keep off the internet and allow her to navigate. She's been a pimp, on account of which, if I had to make any decisions/choices or figure this out, we would not make it there... and she's had to deal with me.
Bless her heart.
My input in this vacation planning has consisted of declaring that I will have to ride this Steven Tyler ride I've heard about, because after all, we are pretty tight (and thanks again Shaun for completing Beckham's room with Steven on the wall),
and also declaring that I want to go see all the Harry Potter stuff. Melissa was very informative, yet again, and explained that the Harry Potter stuff is at Universal- not Disney.
I'm sure you all knew that though.
I figured a month or two ago that I would be proactive and purchase a leakproof backpack to put all our junk in at the parks. (I remembered the "leakproof" part from my Pinterest research...I think).
Anyway, I found this awesome deal on Amazon and my leakproof backpack arrived....with some sort of Chinese writing on the outside of it. Whatever, man. You'll find me wearing this backpack loud and proud- because goodness, it was such a deal.
(I sure hope it doesn't say anything naughty.)
Oh, I was also proactive when I put the magic watches that arrived in a room and then told Melissa to remind to pack those. She promptly corrected me and said "They are Magic Bands. Not watches".
This week has been full of nights not including sleep. I've stared awake and woken Martinez up with thoughts and then even asking him if we can change our flights to leave earlier because I'm concerned about the lack of sleep.
He said no.
If you see me between now and next week, and I appear to be a zombie....it's because sleep has been replaced with crazy vacation worries and excitement.
My thoughts are everywhere.
I'm excited and scared !
And I'll end this by saying that somebody ought to be praying for Melissa and Martinez having to deal with all this🙂🙂

2nd Thoughtful Thursday
It's October !!!!
We always go to the pumpkin patch the first weekend in October and I can't wait to go Saturday with my little family.
We've had a much slower week this week and I'm grateful.
And then this morning, she felt tiny again, as I discovered this...
What you are looking at is a brand new pair of shoes stained with sand/clay. It may not seem so bad in this photo, but this was after dumping out the tablespoons of SAND AND TINY LOOKING STICKS!! (I thought to take a photo after). Liv approached me this morning and said "Mom, these socks are poking me." I took off a shoe to adjust her socks, only to have my hands covered in SAND. I then took off the other shoe and received sand and tiny STICKS! "LIVI, THE STICKS ARE POKING YOU! NOT SOCKS!!". My head may have come close to an explosion, as I wondered about the transference of this sand in her closet and shoe rack. Her playground at school has wood chips, or so I thought, so I'm still not certain where this came from exactly.
In case you are wondering, she's still unsure on how that much sand "appeared" in her shoes or how tiny sticks were in there....and she also doesn't recall any sand or sticks escaping upon removing them on the last wear.
So, you'll find me with a cleaning toothbrush, baking soda, peroxide and dawn dish soap, scrubbing the insides of these shoes, because after all, we only looked at a dozen places (or more!) to find her size in the exact color she wanted.
How can he be 2 already?
Today is the second set of 20 questions at random with The DeShazo.
21.) What is your least favorite movie? -probably any Matrix movies because I just totally don't get it- or that Indiana Jones movie that Martinez made me sit through years ago with skulls swirling around in circles.
22.) Where would you bury hidden treasure if you had some? -Doesn't that defeat the point of "hidden"?
23.) What do you drink with dinner? -Water
24.) What do you dip a chicken nugget in? -I only eat chicken nuggets if they are from Chick-fil-a- and I'll dip those in any of their sauces- but I'll go with the Polynesian sauce.
25.) What is your favorite food? -Dessert. I try not to discriminate though. I love most food.
26.) What movies could you watch over and over again and still love? -Hocus Pocus, Steel Magnolias, Tombstone, New in Town, Fried Green Tomatoes
27.) Last person you kissed/kissed you? -Martinez
28.) Were you ever a boy/girl scout? -Nope
29.) Would you ever strip or pose nude in a magazine? -Ummm, No. There isn't enough eye insurance in the world for the viewers to receive proper treatment after that.
30.) When was the last time you wrote a letter to someone on paper? -I can't remember.
31.) Can you change the oil on a car? -Nope
32.) Ever gotten a speeding ticket? -Yep, and it left me with $161.00 less to my name.
33.) Ever ran out of gas? -Yep, on the lawn mower. Repeatedly.
34.) What's your favorite kind of sandwich? -Anything from Napoleon's with that garlic sauce.... but probably a No. 4.
35.) Best thing to eat for breakfast? - Dessert ( and yes, I eat my "first breakfast" about 5:30am-usually a baked good. I'll explain more about this some other time). If it has to be a breakfast food- I'm definitely going for sausage gravy and biscuits.... and go ahead and add a slice or two of crispy bacon.
36.) What is your usual bedtime? -I like to be laying in my bed these days at 8:30pm and asleep by 9:30pm.
37.) Are you lazy? -Nope.
38.) When you were a kid, what did you dress up as for Halloween? - I cannot remember, which is frustrating because I love Halloween and I don't forget stuff like that.
39.) What is your Chinese astrological sign? -No clue
40.) How many languages can you speak? -One
See ya next time!

Monkey bar practice-
Played with friends-
I feel like my kiddos are too big already. My little girl has changed so much in this last year and she seems so grown up.
And then this morning, she felt tiny again, as I discovered this...

He gave me lots of snuggles on Wednesday. These days, it's a rare treat!
