30 Confessions About Turning 30

Much to my complete surprise, turning 30 yesterday has not brought about any huge changes. Despite the fact that I'm much more mature than I was only 48 hours ago, the rest of me is completely the same. (hehehe) I've decided to compile a list of 30 confessions about turning 30.

1. I still feel really young (when I say young, I mean like I'm 22 young--DENIAL)

2. I refuse to stop watching The Hills (I know, I know)

3. To back up number 2, I'll go ahead and admit that I'm also a big fan of Laguna Beach when it's on...if they made another season I'd be there with popcorn

4. I still love dorky pop music from the Britney/Justin genre and will blast it loud when it comes on. My iTunes list is kind of embarrassing.

5. Kyle has been calling me a tree-hugger since we began dating. I'm finally willing to admit that he's right. Hey, I'm from the Pineywoods!

6. I've come to terms with the fact that I might be addicted to Diet Coke. I hate to use the word "addicted" but if the shoe fits. To be safe I also included the word "might."

7. I long to enjoy cooking, but I just don't. On the contrary, I do like to clean (odd, I know). Dusting and vacuuming make me happy. A dirty house stresses me out. I would like to enjoy cooking/become a better cook in this decade of my life. However if this doesn't occur anytime soon, I figure 10 yrs. gives me lots of cushion for improvement.

8. Reid often points to magazines and says "Mommy" when looking at a woman on the page. He does the same to men in magazines, saying "Daddy." Recently Kyle was Lance Armstrong. I hope he never stops doing this because I can look plain awful and my sweet boy finds me on the pages on W. Sweet little boy! He hasn't called me Blake Lively this month yet, but I've got it out in case he decides to. ;)

9. The older I get the more I realize to cherish all the little moments in life like laughter, late nights with Caroline and sweet things Reid does or says. Cherishing the moments gives you such a better attitude like when you change a diaper 3 times in 5 minutes. Really, it does!

10. 30 is way too long of a list to write about myself, so I'll end on this note: I feel like the luckiest lady in the world with the blessings I have from God. I have a strong relationship with Jesus, an awesome husband who makes me laugh daily and 2 beautiful children to raise. My cup runneth over.

So as I leave behind my twenty-something status and embrace my new thirty-something status, I know that I'm in good company with many of my friends AND my list is going to be so much better when I turn 40...or Over the Hill (Aughhhhhh!)
