It looks like Ashley tagged me. I'm sure she did it as a way to make me keep blogging. I really am trying to find time to blog but the twins don't always sleep at the same time. Anyways, I have to tell six things about myself that supposedly nobody knows. Well I'm sure everyone knows these 'cause I'm not all that secretive but here are some:
1. I hate scary movies, and stories for that matter. I always tend to replay them in my mind and then can't stop thinking about it. Plus I don't really need the excuse of a scary movie to cuddle with my hubby!
2. I absolutely love to deep clean. And vacuuming is by far my favorite. One of the best sounds in the world is running the vacuum over some dirty carpet and hearing all the little pieces being sucked up. Isn't that satisfying! Most people would think this is false since my room during high school was nicknamed hurricane buma (for always being a mess). This leads me to the bad part. Since I love to deep clean that also means I hate to surface clean. For me to pick up my clothes and hang them in the closet means I also have to vacuum the floor in the closet, wipe off the baseboards, etc. I am seriously weird.
3. I am obsessed with cooking shows. While I was pregnant I constantly watched the food network. My favorite shows are Everyday Italian and Barefoot Contessa. Again this is funny since I cannot cook. Maybe I will go take some cooking classes.
4. I could spend thousands of dollars in an office supply store. Organizing is way fun if you have all the gadgets to make it happen. For example, a few of my favorite things are clear storage bins, file folders, closet organizers, etc.
5. I hate being alone. Every once in awhile it is nice to have a break but I would much rather go get a pedicure with a friend. Run errands with my mom. That is one reason I am so jealous of my kids. As a twin you will always have a friend (hopefully they will like each other in high school). I would way want to have been a twin! One reason I am part of the triplets.
6. Mint. I love almost everything mint. Mint lotion, mint shampoo, mint chocolate, mint ice cream. Who couldn't love this stuff. It is all so refreshing.

About Me
- The Rawlins' Fam
- Our story of the Rawlins family began when Brandon and I met randomly through kind-of mutual friends, more or less, and started dating January 2003. After two years of dating we got married in December 2004. That's when life got really exciting. We traveled a lot, Mel graduated in Health Education, Brandon started school and we lived happily ever after. As the two years of wedded bliss winded down we naturally thought of kids. You know, those adorable little people that we all want to dress up in ten outfits a day just 'cause they look so stinkin' cute! Well we got our wish very quickly when I found out I was pregnant in December 2006. We couldn't be more thrilled to know we would welcome a little baby in August and make our family three! Little did we know......
TWINS!!!

Way to go BUMA!! You did a post all by yourself. Hey, I'll bring those colors by today sometime.
Hey there. This is Amanda(Jager) I came across your blog and wanted to say HI. Your babies are darling!
Wow Mel. You beat me to the tag. I am so impressed. I actually think I knew all of those things about you...but that's to be expected when you're best friends for 12 years! Actually, I didn't really know about the mint OR the scary movies now that I think of it. Keep the posts coming!
Mel, I am glad you commented on my blog so I could see yours! What cute little ones. I cannot believe you are surviving with 2... I am just getting by with one baby! I have truly been so happy for you and Brandon, and I am sorry I did not express that to you until now! Hope you are doing well and perhaps I'll see you soon.
HEIDI
Loved reading all of that! I seriously miss you and hope that one of these days, we'll have a minute to catch up in person and I can meet your darling family. Glad to hear life is so good for you...you deserve to be sooo happy!
so i had your "old" blog address, which you never updated - but then i saw on ashleys page that she tagged you. so here you are, updated and everything.
congratualtions on the twins, they are so adorable! and as far as being a mother of twins - ahhhh! i don't think i could keep up with the whole blogging thing either. especially if they are not sleeping at the same time. which means, you, never get a break - i am sorry!
keep updating things whenever you can. it is so fun to keep in touch this way and see what is going on in everyones lives!
