2007 brought:

My sweet Codi! He was the very best part of all.

Brandon started talking in coherent sentences and also understanding what I said, this means it brought my son telling me he is so happy, he loves me, He loves baby brother and so on.

Me losing 34 lbs gaining 45 and so far losing 16 more. Uggg

A redisovered passion for riding my bike. I know this seems dumb but honestly finding something that helps me clear my head instantly was so necessary.

My husbands new job, meaning he was home during the day, and he is happy. I mean knowing that he is happy, wow that was one of the best things of all.

My new car. Yeah yeah material, but whatever.

My amazing new friendship with Jen. I am ever so thankful that her and I started yahooing that one faitful day. It was awesome and much needed, and even though she isn't here it is so wonderful having someone who knows exactly how I feel 98% of the time. It's 98% and not 100% because dude...she wears tapered jeans and I'll never know how that feels!

More responsibility at work. I love this part. I love love love knowing that I'm needed at work.

My husbands new friends, friends that don't do drugs, or drink excessively and who actually come over and hang out and keep their plans.

I tag Ginger, Jen, Lindz, Heidi

I Mae just love her

I just ran home real fast to grab my breast pump and I saw a little Fed Ex box on my porch. I opened it up and discovered that Mae had sent me the vegetarian sloppy joe mix that she had talked about a few months ago. She wrote in the card that she wasn't sure it would still sound good to me since I wasn't pregnant. I put it down got in my car and went back to work. I'm now happy to say that there is only 34 more minutes until I can go home make the entire can of sloppy joe mix and shovel the whole damn thing in my mouth right away. I have no intentions of sharing, or reading the calories I only intend to glutonly eat every bit of it as quick as possible.

Bet you forgot what they looked like

It's all wet here in Reno today. Codi decided he better put on his wee little shoes to keep his feet from getting wet!

See my teensy tiny shoes

Brandon finally got to sport his rain coat and matching galoshes and seriously I'm overwhelmed with the cuteness of them

And the cuteness of this

He looks like he is sleeping but really he is preparing to wail!

Look you think I'm all quite and cute but I'm about to start screaming and making my bottom lip quiver so that mommy gets all sad and then picks me up and gives me lots of boobie!

Diseases of the mouth

I was over reading this blog where she often talks about the funny things she says. It reminded me of a time I made a total idiot out of myself. You know the one where you say something and you get that deadpan, how the hell do I respond to that look. Here is the conversation...its short and not sweet.

I was delivering some stuff to one of our vendors. The lady who worked there happened to be my moms friend from high school who had just moved back to town. It goes like this.

Girl: Wow it's so nice to finally meet you, I've known your mom since high school so It's great to meet you.

Super Smart Shannon: Yeah, high school well, that was a long time ago huh?

Girl: Dead stare

SSS: I mean, Umm I'm not saying your old, I mean you are, but I just meant that was a long time to still know each other, umm, uhh I have to go.

Girl: Dead stare

I'm such a dumb ass!

SOME OF YOU INQUIRED ABOUT THE RECIPES I USED FOR MY CHRISTMAS GOODIES. I WILL NOT BE POSTING THOSE ONLINE, BECAUSE THEN ALL MY FRIENDS WILL HAVE THE RECIPE AND THAT MEANS I CAN NO LONGER MAKE MY TREATS FOR THEM. HOWEVER, IF YOU WANT THE RECIPE AND YOU DONT KNOW ME PERSONALLY EMAIL ME AT WILDDREEMER AT YAHOO DOT COM AND I WILL GIVE YOU WHICHEVER RECIPE YOU WANT!

No diamonds here

I was just over reading Laineys blog (the little stinker got to open her presents early) and she was talking about diamonds. I was reminded of the day we picked out my wedding band. The jewelry guy looked at my husband when I said I didn't want anything big, and said something about how I say that now but after he marries me I'll be all ooooo I want a bigger ring, and ear rings and a bracelet. I tried to explain to the guy that no, in fact I would never want a bigger ring, or a bracelet or what not. I actually have diamond ear rings from my mom. Know what I do with them? I let my jewelery box wear them. I also have a diamond necklace from Rob. It goes on jewelry box camping trips with my ear rings. Then once or twice a year on fancy occasions (read, when I wear my black dress) I put on the ear rings and the necklace. This guy didn't believe me. He kept telling Rob that all women say that before they are married, then they get the guy to marry them and suddenly want to be all iced out and shit. I had to laugh because while diamonds are great for some people (seriously Katie looks stunning with some diamonds on...but, I mean, Katie does her hair every day and stuff so she totally should wear diamonds as a reward for that task) but for me diamonds are about as exciting as wearing dirt. I love my wedding and engagement ring and thats it. All together the cost of the other jewelry I wear on a daily basis is $5.25.

However, don't let this fool you into thinking I don't have expensive taste. I just like different things. You see, if it was fashionable to walk around dangling shiny new Wusthof Santuko knives from my ears, well shit, you wouldn't be able to pry me out of that jewelery store. Yup thats right. Kitchen shit! Thats my diamond. The way some women get over a diamond, well thats how I get over a new Lew Crueset pot, or an Al Clad sauce pan, or heaven forbid a new Wusthof. In fact I don't think I could ever have enough knives. You could buy me one every week and it wouldn't be enough. I would never tire. In fact all this talk about kitchen stuff is making me feel a little frisky if you know what I mean. I think its funny that while that jewelry store guy was totally wrong about diamonds he was right about the fact that all of us have that one thing, the one thing that makes the world light up and makes your husband suddenly shit roses and fireworks crack in the sky. For me it's knives. What is it for you? Whats the one thing that if you saw under the tree this year, you would, well lets just say you wouldn't mind if the next thing you opened was a pair of knee pads?
