Yes I do, but I give them a small portion so that I know they can finish it. If they are still hungry, they can ask for more. We don't waste food in our house, it is important to us that our kids have that same mentality.

What is something your child learned from you that you would have rathered they didn't?

More kids! Lol we both want two more but I wonder if I'll want more after that.......I feel I'm far from done and just hope that one day I'll truly feel satisfied that I'm done having babies.

Do you make your kids finish their plates?

Smell. It wouldn't be fun, but it also wouldn't be debilitating in the way losing sight, hearing, touch or taste might be. If the chemical factory next door had another leak of the stuff they add to make natural gas smell, it wouldn't bother me at all. Last time I was nearly sick.

What is your pet name for your hubby?

My favorite show as a kid was Full House. I also liked Saved by the Bell.

If you had to lose one of your senses, what would you pick? (hearing, sight, etc..)

Owl city! I love him! And his new cd strays into the fact that he's a Christian and that's awsome :) oh and around that time we burned my sisters 'glee' cd to a disc so I have that now too. I LOVE glee!

Ha! Strollers. We have 3 and RARELY every use them. I'm sorry, that's not right. We have FOUR strollers. My son hated hated hated strollers and still does. We have a Eddie Bauer stroller, a jeep jogging stroller, and 2 umbrella strollers. The Eddie Bauer and the Jeep jogger were both very expensive (both gifts!) Anyway, our son preferred to he held or worn. I stopped wearing him right after he turned 2 because I couldn't take the weight anymore. He wouldn't mind if wore him even now, but he's just so heavy!

Gabriel is a white cat with a bit of black and he's the softest ever!
Michael is an orange tabby cat and he's not quite as silky soft but he's very very affectionate!
India was our golden retriever and she went to stay with my sister this past week! She's getting loved on by four roomates and two of their boyfriends :)
Since that's such a short list I'll include our most recent pets,
Xena was a black dwarf rabbit
Nutmeg was my guinea pig, she was colored dark brown with specs of black in it and a white blaze and white feet and white belly and one brown patch near her butt!
Twix was an abbysinian guinea pig with coloring like the candy bar, brown, black, and tan!
Lucky was our white rat, the sweetest pet rodent I've owned :)
Ouncie was a wild frog we caught in the movie theatre and bought a amphibian cage for and fed crickets
Aranel was a cat we rescued but Reno Ed to my husbands friend, he was a beautiful Siamese looking cat but built like a main coon....
And his sister nessa was black with white points who also went to another friend of matts.
Cashew was a gerbil we took from my aunt because she (the gerbil) ate her sister and my aunts and her boys didn't really want her around :) but we called her scampers :)
We had a tank of fish and tons of fish over two years and everyone had a name! But I've forgotten most except I had a crayfish who was bought as food for my in laws aggressive fish but he was mangled up but not dead and hiding and I felt bad for him and they let me take him home! He re grew all his legs and claws and thrived so much he ended up eating one of our fish! Eventually we gave away all the fish and let 'crabby' have the whole 30 gal tank to himself!
These are all the pets we've had in the last 4 years of marriage :)

Check out all the stuff! Unless I didn't have my kids along then I might relax a bit, but I'm not a lazy type person, I need stimulation!
Oh and I would puck a shopping spree for me! Lol reason being I get tons of cute kids clothes super cheap at rummage sales and second hand consignment stores but my wardrobe is not so lucky. My clothes are more expensive and harder to find nice stuff second hand, so I'm wearing clothes from high school still!

Have you ever had an unusual pet?
