8 Random Things About Erin Winters

Ok so I am the most boring person ever and have no interesting things about me but oh well, here goes.....

1. I LOVE being a mom more than anything in this world! I love having two beautiful little girls who wake up in the morning looking for their mom to give her a big smile and a hug!!!! Its the best feeling in the world.

2. I eat frozen peas!!!! Sounds disgusting I know, but it is something I picked up from my mom and guess what, Rylee only wants peas frozen, she doesn't want them cooked. Yeah it must be genetic. Ha Ha

3. In high school, my girlfriends used to call me Er-hole (Jenna, Suz, and Cassa). My mom absolutely hated it because, of course, she thought, it sounded disgusting. What is even better is we called my friend Cassa, Cas-hole! How funny is that. Oh man, I miss those days with the girls. You guys were the best!!!!

4. I get POST PARDOM depression after I have my babies. It is the most scary, out of control, crazy feeling mental state I have ever been in. It is by far the most difficult thing I have been through in my entire life!!!!!! It is a hard thing to explain or understand unless you have been through it. I am just getting through it again after my second baby and am feeling great again but it took a long time to feel normal. ( I'm lucky to have a good family to help take care of me and my kids. Don't know what I would have done without Meladie this time around. Thanks Mel, I will never forget it!)

5. I think I would die if there were no more mashed potatoes, or any side dish consisting of potatoes, left in this world! I cannot eat a meal without a side. I would rather have a bowl of mashed potatoes and no meat. I could never in my life go on a high protein diet because I could not live without carbs!!! Ok this tag is making me look like a terrible person. Oh well!!

6. My biggest pet peeve is people that chew on ICE!!! Kara and Mom, I am talking to you... Ha ha. I cannot stand that crunching sound. Kara and my mom could tell you how many dirty looks they got throughout their lives when they chewed on ice. I think they did it to annoy me purpously. J/k Kara, I love ya! But its ok if I chew ice cause I can't tell how bad it sounds. WOw I am pathetic.

7. I am hopelessly addicted to GREY'S ANATOMY!! I kept thinking I could live without it during the writers strike but oh no! I cannot! Jon will walk in and start laughing at me cause I am watching a romantic part with a huge grin on my face. He just cracks up but what can I do.... Derek and Meredith are together again!!!!!!!!

8. Last but not least.... I am a really shy person and don't go out of my way to talk to people I don't know. IT makes me come across as not a very friendly person, but if people talk to me I am nice, I promise.

Well this was fun but made me look really bad, but oh well, I definitely come with some quirks.

I don't know if anyone will want to do this or not but how bout: Jenny, Jamie, Suz, Kara, Kel, Heather, Michelle, and Jenna. You go girls!!!!!!!

So I haven't posted much because we haven't done much lately. Jon is so busy that I usually just hang out at home and do nothing. I'm looking forward to the nice weather so I can at least be outside. Jon is gonna be student teaching in Delta this fall so we will only be in Cedar City until the end of July. I hope everything works out and hopefully he will find a job right after student teaching. I hope!!!!!!

The "Fweakin" Carnival (as ry ry would say)

Yeah that cotton candy better be good! We stood in line for at least an hour!

Loving the blow up tramp. We had to drag her out kicking and screaming.

Fun or not?

BEFORE.......

AFTER!!!!

Fun Pics!!!

My sweet little Tay-bug!

So Rylee was begging me to let her push Taylor in her baby stroller one day. So with me standing next to her, I let her push her down the hall. She loved it and so did Tay. Dont worry it was a one time thing!
My little napping cuties!

Ok so this picture totally turned out too bright but I could not believe how blue Taylor's eyes looked. I just had to put it on here.

Pool Party

It was our nephew Patricks 1st birthday and Heather had planned to go to the swimming pool but it just happened to be closed that day for cleaning. So we settled for swimmin at grandma's house which was a blast! Rylee would not let me take close up pics of her. See that cup in her hand, well it was thrown at the camera when I tried to get her to say cheese. OOOh she is lucky she didn't break the camera. Ha Ha
All the kids loved grandma's pool. Patrick's cousin's sure helped him get used to the water. He didn't like it at first but got used to it. Happy B day Patrick! We sure wish your daddy was there to celebrate with us!
