Born In: Belleville, Illinois (moved to Canada 2 ½ years ago)
Children’s name and age: Addison – 5 ½ months old
Childhood Ambition: Apparently
I never knew “when I grow up, I want to be…”.
My mom told me that I always said “I don’t know what I want to be when I
grow up”. I’m guessing I was in the
minority when it came to that (as most children have some sort of answer…even
if it never happens). As an adult, I
still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up J
Fondest Memory:
I always remember summer vacations and going to the waterpark with my brother
and sister. We’d all pile in the minivan
and it was a several hour drive. You’d
think we’d drive each other crazy…but I think in all the excitement of getting
there, it was the only time we’d actually get along. We would count down the days until we went
every year.
Wildest Dream:
To travel the world. There are so many amazing places out there just waiting for my family to visit them!

Proudest Moment: The birth of my daughter (followed closely by
watching my husband look in amazement when he first saw our daughter) – it is
still unbelievable to me!
Biggest Challenge: Becoming a mom. You are suddenly responsible for this tiny person and there is no training manual or class that you can take that will teach you how to do it. Every day is a new, but extremely rewarding, challenge.

Perfect Day: Spending a day outdoors enjoying the sunshine
(I’m definitely not a cold weather girl).
I’d enjoy a nice walk and a fabulous picnic with my family. At the end of the day, I’d curl up on the
sofa with an amazing book. Nice and
relaxing…just how I’d like it.
First Job: Hostess in a restaurant
Indulgence: Anything sweet…cookies, candies, chocolate,
pretty much any dessert…I have a crazy sweet tooth!
Last Big Purchase: I guess it depends on what your definition of
“big” is. Our home was the biggest
purchase I’ve ever made. But a smaller,
“big” purchase was my Michael Kors bag that I bought several months before my
daughter was born (I have a bit of a love of handbags).
Favourite Movie or Favourite Sport? My favorite sport is baseball. I’m a huge St. Louis Cardinals fan (my
hometown is about 20 minutes from St. Louis).
I was even able to go to the final game when they won the World Series
in 2006…talk about an amazing experience.
How long have you been a member of momstown Milton? Almost 5
months
What has your experience been like being a member of momstown
Milton? Being a member has been
amazing. After moving here from the
states, it took me some time to adjust and make friends…unfortunately most of
those were single friends with no children.
Momstown has been amazing in helping me get out and meet other moms. It was a great way to get involved in
activities with my daughter, but to also have an opportunity to have “adult”
conversation as well. I’ve met some
amazing mamas, and hope to continue those friendships for years to come. Thanks so much Momstown…you’ve helped make
the last 5 ½ months even more amazing!!
