Astrid's questions

If you won a million dollars, what would you purchase first? I think I would pay off my morgage on my house! After that I am not sure

What is 1 thing you would like to change about DH? hmm... this is hard but I think I would change his slowness he is sooo slow when we are getting ready to go anywhere or do anything, it makes me nuts

What is 1 thing that DH would like to change about you? he'd probably make me more patient when waiting for him

What is your favorite era of music? probably 80's early 90's

Will this be your last baby or are there still more in the future? I am not sure, we always said we wanted three but I think we have to see what happens with #2. I think if we do have #3 it wont be as close in age as Jesse and this one are going to be

J-me's questions

What are five words that describe your personality? impatient, caring, empathetic, nurturing, introverted. those are the first five I can think of

What are five words that describe your hubby's personality?introverted, caring, generous, cautious, energetic

Are you shy or outgoing? I am pretty shy. I am more outgoing when i get comfortable in a situation, but I tend to be more on the shy and introverted side

What is your favorite CD/Album? hmm..thats hard. I think if I had to pick one all time favorite it would be Indigo girls Rites of Passage/ I can always listen to it!

What is your favorite movie? Sleepless in Seattle. there is somwthing about that movie I just love and can watch over and over

What is your favorite television show? The Office

Are you a daring person? Would you ever bunjee jump or skydive? I am not daring at ALL. I would never do those things, I dont like heights, and I actually have a fear of falling. Its ntot being up high that scares me as much as the idea of FALLING from the height

What is your favorite feature on yourself? my hair, I like the color and the curliness Your least favorite? My nose! its to big

What features do you want this child to get from you and from your hubby? hmm... his patience and understandnig, my ability to deal with stress, my empathy...I am not sure what else.

What do you do for work? I work for a mental health agency as an outpatient therapist. Mostly with children and adolescents, I specialize in abuse issues and trauma

How do you discipline Jesse? Usually I say no and if he doesnt stop what he is doing I take him away from whatever it is, and tell him no again. Sometimes I explain why in short simple phrases that he can understand. It was so cute the other day he started going for the oveen, and I said NO Jesse its hot, and he stopped and started blowing like he blows on his food when we say its hot. . He is really to young for time outs and that kidn of thing.


What are some of Jesse's favorite toys/cartoons? he doesnt watch tv so he doesnt know cartoons yet, but he LOVES little people right now. Its ALL he wants to play with, he is very into them.

2. Do you have any names picked out for your LO? yes we do
3. What is the last vaction you were on?we went to Florida in January to visit my grandmother but I dont know if that counts as vacation. Before that we went to Cape Cod the summer I was pregnant with Jesse with some of Davids family. I need a vacation!
