My blogging friend Kristen tagged me as a Theta Mom. A Theta Mom is a True Authentic mom. Thank you Kristen, I am humbled. And I am now charged with writing about 5 things that make me a True Authentic Mom. Alright lets do this!
1) The contents of my purse always includes both and EpiPen and a diaper. Sadly wipes are optional, besides you can always use wet toilet paper in a pinch. I also almost always have a pacifier, although it never seems to be there when I really need it.
2) I have walked through church, the mall, the airport, and may other public places with spit-up pooling on my shoulder or running down my back. I've also had to change my pants as I was leaving because someone spit-up in a very inconvenient place!
3) I have more apps on my iPhone to entertain my kids than to entertain myself.
4) The pharmacist at Safeway knows my name.
5) Conversations around my house include everything from cars to bodily functions.
Now I tag Kristin, Renee, Erin, April, and Jamie. I can't wait to read what you ladies have to share!

Ann needs...
I grabbed this from Pam over at Rhett's Journey and since my class tomorrow is canceled and I have no homework to do I need something to occupy my time while Dan grades papers.
Ann needs...
1) repair. (I'm actually feeling pretty good right now)
2) numbers. (ummm I think I have all the numbers I need right now but perhaps I do need more)
3) a ride to the Baltimore Airport. (Well that would be pretty cool but how the heck did I end up in Baltimore???)
4) to retire. (But I don't have a career to retire from yet! and I'm far too young!)
5) to be convinced. (What is this that I need to be convinced of?)
6) help. (With what? I'm pretty much caught up in school but I could use help cleaning house.)
7) a home in Wisconsin. (Do they know something I don't? I'm not planning on moving to Wisconsin anytime soon so I'm not sure why I need a house there)
8) a milkshake. (ohhhhh that sounds good!)
9) to apologize. (ok ok I'm sorry but what did I do?)
10) a new mom. (No I don't I have a fantastic mom!)
11) a new radiator for her Ford. (I don't even own a Ford so this would do me no good)
12) a robot. (Does it clean house if so he's hired!)
That was fun.
