I'm a wife, grad student, soon to be mom, full time sock picker-upper, and Registered Dietitian. I enjoy a good handful of chocolate chips, long leisurely reads in the sun, and nap time.

I am a wife, mother and ice cream snob who smiles at some things, laughs at most things, and cries about everything. I spend too much time catching up on celebrity gossip and not enough time at the local "Nails 4 You" getting pedicures. I currently live in Virginia surrounded by saintly people who may soon be translated.

I'm a wife, a stay at home mom six days a week, and a social worker one day a week (not to be mistaken with miracle worker, which I am not, but am sometimes expected to be). I like to read and attempt crafts. I had more interests at one time, I think.

Katrina
I live in Brisbane, Australia. Sunny one day, beautiful the next. My studly husband and I enjoy spending time at the beach, fishing and traveling when we can. I sing in the shower, lay on the grass, and occasionally tie people's shoe laces together... just for fun.

Lindsay
Wife of 1, mom of 2, friend to some, used to teach many. I have a new hobby about every two months, make a mean Mac 'N Cheese, and despise wintery weather.

Linz
My house is overrun with boys, so I gravitate toward anything girly. I have a big mouth that usually gets me into trouble. I try to keep it occupied with delicious food. I love to bake, watch chick flicks, and get pedicures.

I am a mom to an adorable (but smack in the middle of the terrible 3's) son and a too good to be true baby girl. I like to consider myself a stay at home mom, but truth be told I work a whopping 6 hours a week as a social worker. Our plans this summer are wide open, although I imagine we'll do a fair amount of camping because apparently that's "our thing." I also hope to be outside enough that I get a decent tan, but let's be real, I haven't had a bronze body since the summer I got married. My favorite summer treat is a fudgesicle.

The resident foreigner. I live in Brisbane, Australia with my studly husband and son, who is also studly – tell your daughters. I work (‘work’ is an exaggeration) as a music teacher in schools which is much more fun than it sounds; that is if singing, dancing, and banging on instruments all day is your idea of a good time. We enjoy our summers spending time at the beach, fishing and drinking mango smoothies. It is heading into winter here, so we’ll do all the same things whilst wearing a sweater. I sing in the shower, lay on the grass making cloud stories, and occasionally tie people's shoe laces together... just for fun.

Mom of 3. plus a 29 year old husband who I sometimes mistake for a kid based on the number of time I pick up his shoes. We are moving in T-3 days from the land of lovers (Virginia) to the land of Mormons (Utah). After our 4 day travel back to the mothership, I will travel to the land of chicken, rice and awesomeness (Dominican Republic) for a 8 day vacation sans kids. It's going to be lovely. After that we'll be back to the ol' schedule of doing whatever it is stay-at-home moms do. My favortie summer treat isMaggie Moo's chocolate better batter ice cream. Hands down
