1. I was a total tomboy and daddy's girl. I loved to play outside, climb trees, go exploring with my loyal rat terrier. I was always grubby and had a ton of energy.

2. I don't really know. I was popular, but only because of my best friend. She ended up being homecoming queen. Her really popular friends kind of rejected me because I was a rebel...always getting in trouble in school (but my grades were good). I was mainly just mouthy. Overall I was an angry, bitter teen because of personal issues so my personality back then was very pessimistic. I was like Daria. lol

3. Backstreet Boys. LOL BSB 4 life!!!

4. The Crocodile Hunter

5. My mom's chicken and rice.

5. Messy. Like, warzone messy. I was such a slob back then. I had posters of animals and then the Backstreet Boys when I was a tween. (I know, I know...really lame...)

6. I'm much happier now than when I was a teenager. It was a rough time for me. My childhood was alright, but I look back on it now and realize that all of this stuff was happening around me that I was too young to understand and it makes me sad.

7. She's a very happy child, but can be very serious too. I think she will be independent, probably to the point of being rebellious like I was. So far she loves the outdoors as I did. I also think she'll be affectionate. Basically just passionate no matter what emotion she's feeling.

8. Yo Gabba Gabba

9. Spaghetti, hot dogs.

10. Cluttered, but cute. She plays in there but we're still co-sleeping so the room hasn't been made officially "hers" yet.

11. Clever, loving and vivacious.

1. I was a pretty happy go lucky type of kid. Won an award for "happiest kid" in 3rd grade...oh yea. I had my bratty moments but most of the time I was not bad.

2. The" so quiet she is b*tchy" label. That isn't a real category..but that is all I can think of. I wasn't a nerd, wasn't a rebel, sure as hell wasn't a jock or cheerleader. I had tons of friends so I wasn't really a loner. But anytime I heard someone talk badly about me who didn't know me they said I was too quiet and seemed stuck up.

3. Oh dear...I went through a couple of phases as a teen. And whatever music I was listening to my style matched it. (this is another reason why some judged me...they thought I was a "poser") Took me a while to find "me" I guess you could say. When I listened to rock I would dress in rock clothing or when I listened to nothing but rap I would dress in head to toe ecko. I ended those phases by 17 and I listened to just about everything. And I still listen to just about everything.

4.Friends...I LOVED friends. I was so bummed when that ended.

5.I used to love to put bbq sauce on everything. Chicken nuggets was probably my fave. My diet was so horrible growing up. I'm surprised I wasn't obese. I finally got a healthier lifestyle by 17.

6. I was a good mixture of messy and clean when it came to my room. There were very few times I got in trouble for my room not being clean. Now does that mean I didn't create a mess in it every day...no. I had multiple rooms growing up..We kinda moved a lot. So I will describe two of my favorite my 1st fave room was when I was ages 10-12. My room was an attic at some point but then they made it into a second room and put a bathroom in it. The walls were plain but the were covered wall to wall floor to ceiling in Hanson posters. The room I had from 16-20 was another fave. I was getting really into decor (like I am now!) and asked my mom if I could redecorate my room with some of the money I earned from my job. She said fine and let me go at it. I painted it this reddish pink color and had a lot of bright colors

7. I'm more mature, I'm not so judgmental of myself, more confident, better with money

8.Honestly my daughter is only 17 months..so for her it's hard to say. My son on the other hand seems like he would be that out going, class clown type.

9. They actually both love fruits and veggies. But their guilty food would be fries. (both of them)

10. My sons room is a car themed. It's painted a really pretty blue color with red, darker blue, green and yellow decor. My daughters room is actually copied from a magazine. Well most of it. It's painted this rich brown color with one wall painted with 4 colored squares. 2 different shades of pink and 2 different shades of purple. And hanging from the ceiling are these really cool, modern looking plywood cutouts that my husband cut and are painted the same colors I used for the squares on her wall. Everything I made after that was my idea.

11. Jace- happy, brave, silly

Jessica-brave, delightful, gentle.



Oh I missed one My kids fave tv show would be mickey mouse club house.



This is hands down the best Q.

1. I was a happy kid, i was tough because i had an older brother and 2 older sisters who were just mean, i had thick skin and i was definitely witty. I had a big imagination and i could easily entertain myself for hours by playing with dolls or running around outside.

2. I wasn't really super popular. I had friends, i was friendly, everyone liked me and i was nice to mostly everyone, in every clique or group. I had my own group but we weren't really jocks or nerds or whatever. I had my fair share of drugs and drinking at parties and i got busted for it. I wasn't the best kid in the world my junior year.

3. ACDC, ZZ top...but i also listened to a bunch of country. I went through a big beatles phase...i was really REALLY into red hot chili peppers when i was in college, i still am. Gosh i love them.

4. Boy meets world and 7th heaven

5. Chicken and garlic mashed potatoes, still is!

6. Clean clean clean. I was the most OCD kid when i hit about 13, and it faded around age 19. I had a ZZ top poster on my wall right above my bed. I remember i had like white and blue striped wall paper. We collected these carsouel horse things and i had that in my room and i had my own phone :o BIG DEAL! We sold that house when i was older but i miss it!

7. A lot. I am a lot more carefree about messes and my room now. I clean, and things still bug me but not as much anymore.

8. My 15 year old is a good kid, he's determined and he's very driven. He wants to be a doctor, i can see it happening. My 13 year old is carefree and silly, is more interested in social aspect of life, you never know. 5 year old is strong minded, she is gonna be like the 15 year old! My baby, he's just happy being a baby, he knows he's got it good.

9. 15- jersey shore 13- say yes to the dress 5- icarly 14 month old- he likes to watch full house with me :)

10. ty likes steak, mal likes mac and cheese, cate likes her peanut butter and jelly, and cooper LOVES cheetos....too bad he never gets them!

11. I dont even want to look. I'm scared to.

12. Loving, hilarious, and wonderful. All 4!

1. Shy but goofy

2. Kind of preppy but not popular

3. Country western -- born in New Hampshire but grew up in Tennessee

4. Bewitched!!! :)

5. Can't remember...

5. Clean - I was a total neat freak

6. I'm a lot more outgoing, taller, and I make up my own bedtime... that's about it. :)

7. I think my eldest will be a lot like me (she definitely has the same personality that I used to have); my second daughter is really wild and adventurous and I think she'll stay that way-- looking forward to those teen years...; my son is a good boy and i think he'll be really successful and really methodical; my 3-year-old daughter is sweet and sensitive and loves everyone and I hope she never grows out of those qualities; too soon to tell about the newborn...

8. Max & Ruby, Arthur, or Dora. My son likes Thomas the Tank Engine, but none of the girls do so we rarely watch that one.

9. They all like corn (fave vegetable). They all also love strawberries and animal crackers. For actual meal food, my 6-year-old daughter and my 5-year-old son love pizza and my little girl likes macaroni.

10. Merrie: smart, beautiful, sweet. Piper: wild, energetic, outgoing. George: kind, sweet, enthusiastic. Kinsey: kind, sweet, loving.

(1) I was really into dead things, I strayed away from who/what my parents wanted me to be, I was loud, I had *a lot* of energy, and I had a snarky little comeback for anyone who dared question me about anything. Clever little sh*t, I was.



(2) Loner I guess. I actually barely went to high school (ran away completely sophomore year), skipped a lot. I started getting piercings, which got me into trouble (dress code/school uniform) and I was kind of just a 'boho loner' at school. I hated all the kids at my high school, they wore suits and loafers even after school and they were just all kinds of boring. **I guess you could say I was a 'stoner', but our school didn't actually have such a group. So, a 'loner stoner.' Haha.**



(3) My parents encouraged Mozart and Beethoven - I listened to R.E.M. and Grateful Dead once I was old enough to get my hands on it. Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam. All the 'grunge' stuff, really.



(4) I didn't watch TV until I graduated from college at age 22.



(5) Gnocchi. Yum yum. :)



(5) I didn't have control of my own room - my mother did. It was always pink and princessy - flowers and ruffles and sh*t. However, I always kept it really clean - I couldn't stand the mess. When I was 11, I went out and got black paint, and completely covered the walls in it. (At this point my parents ceased to acknowledge my existence, because I was such the polar opposite of what I was 'supposed' to be, which is why I got away with it.) I covered the walls in Grateful Dead lyrics, Anarchy symbols (all with red/white spray paint), and band posters. My room got really filthy at this point. I'd leave clothes on the floor - wet, dirty, stinky clothes from when I'd run away for a few days and then come back for more clothes/food. It was disgusting - absolutely vile.



(6) I'm happy now.



(7) Gussy will always be curious about everything, I could see him traveling into a rain forest and living with a tribe somewhere. Or moving onto a Buddhist commune or something. I could see Dee grow up to be an artist - he's actually really good already (at 2.5), and not just 'mommy-good'. :) Who knows about Ezra, as far as I can see his biggest interest is NOT wearing clothes. So maybe he'lll go live in a nudist colony? All I know is that they all better go to college for something, somewhere.



(8) Gussy likes Ni Hao Kailan and it'd be Word World for Dee.



(9) Peanut butter (Gus) and coconut (Dee). They're obsessed!



(10) Per his request, we recently redid G's room with a jungle theme with all of these huge stand-up animals. It's actually pretty cool looking, not some generic 'jungle'. Dee has a nautical themed bedroom (I know, I know, sooo original.). The walls are a dark red, there's a sea-port on the wall, he has a dark cherry wood boat bed, etc, etc. Ezra's room is a little more 'airy' than the other two. He has grey/white striped walls, blue/orange bedding, white furniture, pillows which match the bedding, a grey ottoman, black/white animal pictures on the wall, a little orange table - not really a theme for this one.



(11) Gus is sparkling, finicky, and odd. :) Mister Dee is magnificent, chill, and artistic. EZ - E is naked, hungry, and adorable.

1. I was a happy kid. Never cared that I was made fun of because my mom never taught me the importance of brushing my hair lol

2. I was a loner. Went through the "goth phase" for a minute.

3. I listened to Michael Bolton, Bryan Adams, Elton John...Mostly soft rock and pop. When Backstreet Boys came out, that was my favorite. When I hit 8th grade it was Korn, Alice in Chains, Anthrax...

4. I loved the Torkelsons, Boy Meets World, 7th Heaven. I was never aloud to watch anything that wasn't family

5. Very messy. Just as my mom never made me brush my hair, she never made us clean and she didn't clean either. You couldn't see the bedroom floor. I shared my room with my twin brother and my older sister. Every now and then we would decide to clean so we could find whatever cool stuff might be under all that crap. It would take us all day. My sister has always been an artist, she did a big mural of looney toons on our bedroom wall.

6. I have grown up a lot, mentally and physically. I cannot stand a dirty house. Before my kids go to bed, their room is clean and everything has a place(I mostly do that myself because I am so picky about it).

7. My kids are only 1 and 3 so it is hard to say

8. They don't have a favorite

9. my 1 year old will pretty much eat anything you put in front of him, so as long as it is edible, he likes it. My 3 yr old is VERY PICKY. I guess I would say grilled cheese LOL.

10. My boys share a room. My 3 yr old has one of those twin beds with the wood frame that has drawers at the bottom and a headboard. He has superheros on his bed spreads. My 1 yr old is still in his crib and he has Blues Clues bed spreads. They have one of those 9 bin shelves for toys and only small toys are aloud in there. They have a large toy box for the big toys. They have one of those little table and chair sets with a little race track sitting on top of it. Their dressers are inside their closet (when my twin brother and I were little, we would open the bottom drawer and climb in and the whole thing would crash on us. we never learned and we continued this everyday).

11. 3 yr old; helpful, caring, funny. 1 yr old; goofy, loving, helpful



Edit- LOL I was wondering how I answered number 5 with a messy room while everyone else was answering with food! Glad to know you put two number fives!

1.) Tomboy, definitely, lol! I was not the dressy girly girl.... I was the girl putting random "critters" in her pocket for my grandma to find when she did laundry, lol

2.) I was the loner more or less. I had a few friends from just about every group... Most of my friends were the stoners/outcasts though, lol. I was definitely more of a loner then anything though.

3.) I listened to a lot of Oldies (raised by my grandparents had that effect, lol!) and country

4.) Eureka's Castle and Shining Time Station!!! I miss those shows :(

5.) This sounds really, really, gross, lol, but I had two sandwiches that I made up, that I asked for daily. One was mayo and butter, the other was mayo, butter, ketchup, peanut butter and pickles.... I still eat both from time to time.... Which probably explains a LOT of my weight issues, lol

5.) My bedroom was generally....... Organized clutter.... For lack of a better word, lol!! The walls were a typical trailer off white color... Awful! Lol!

6.) I've grown up a lot, my room is still kind of a mess, lol, and I'm still a tom boy..... Sadly, I haven't changed a whole lot... My TV shows have grown up though, lol, and I'm a mom now, so a lot of my priorities, etc... have changed, too.

7.) Based on their personalities, this is how I think my children will end up:

Damien's gonna be the sensitive one. The one that rarely gets into trouble, but ALWAYS rats his brothers out, lol! He's also probably gonna be the book worm!

Jayden's gonna be the trouble maker, the mama's boy, and the one I get called to school for all the time, lol. He definitely got his mommy's temper, but hopefully we can curb that before he starts school!!

Corbin's gonna be the sneaky one. He's gonna be the one in ALL the trouble, but nobody'll ever catch him because he's gonna learn from the older two's mistakes, lol

8.) All three of em freackin LOVE Yo Gabba Gabba.... The one show that freaks me out, lol!

9.) Damien - Chicken nuggets and "peanut butter and bread" as he calls it, lol

Jayden - Pizza!!!

Corbin - Cheerios for now, lol

10.) Both of them have blue walls and two toy boxes. Jayden and Corbin share a room for right now. Damien's room has his bed (with book shelf type thing), his dresser, and his toy boxes. Jayden/Corbin's room has their beds, a dresser, and their toy boxes and book shelf.

11.) Damien - Sensitive, caring, loud (he does REALLY good sound effects for cars, lol)

Jayden- Ornery, stubborn, copy cat (does EVERYTHING Damien does)

Corbin - Sweet, funny, independent (I know I used that one for Jayden, too, but Corbin really does want to do things on his own already, lol)



Why are there two number 5's??? Sorry, just noticed that, lol!!

1)One of the kids that always got picked on cause I wore the big ugly 90's glasses for years, and I was kinda gross but in reality it wasn't that bad and I still had pretty hair except when my mom got it cut up to my ears when I was nine because I didn't wanna put it in a pony tail or anything. Was eleven years ago but I'll still never forget thank god it's long & beautiful shoulder length now!

1. I was a very happy kid. I loved to read and I still do. I loved Lurlene McDaniel and other series books.

2. I was a nerd/loner and I am still that way.

3. Rock n Roll- David Bowie, ZZ Top, ACDC (my favorite band)

4. Full House- ABC TGIF

5. Our bedrooms were all this ugly gray color and since I shared with my brother we were messy and there were my brothers posters all the wall. I didn't have any.

6. I am more opened minded, I've made a lot of mistakes that taught me lessons. I've grown to become more understanding of people and realizing that my life isn't all that bad. When I was younger it was all about me, but as I got older its really not.

7. Exactly like me. When I get mad I put my hands up and make this noise, he does he same thing (I told my husband I don't know where he gets that from- my husband said you. LOL) Short temper which Jarrett has. Jarrett doesn't look like me, but he freaking acts like me.

8. When he does watch TV he watches Your Baby Can Read.

9. pasta!

10. Jarrett shares a room with us. He has his own little section of our room. His crib is blue, he has his name on wooden letters and different shapes hanging on the wall that I made for him. His dresser, which is Chicago Bears colors (Kyle's old dresser from his childhood, but with a little paint it looks like new.) And two pictures of animals.

11. Intelligent, handsome, and happy.
