I got tagged!

How exciting! Definitely a first for me! Thanks, Amy! She actually tagged me twice, I am only doing the one though because I do not have enough blogging friends to tag 6 people, nevermind 12 LOL! Everyone I know was already tagged by either Amy or Steph!

Okay, here we go! These are the rules:

1. Link to the person who tagged you
2. Mention the rules on your blog...
3. Alright, List 6 unspectacular quirks
4. Tag 6 bloggers by linking to them on your post. Then commenting to let them know "there it!"

now, onto my 6 things...

~I am a horrible housekeeper. I don't even pretend like I can keep up. I don't know why I am this way; my mom was/is a great housekeeper and was always on my ass to clean up as a teen!

~I always have to have something to do with my hands. Usually it is hair twirling. If not that, then picking something.

~sometimes I wish I did not have all the responsibility that I do. I had about a year in between school & motherhood and I don't think it was enough! Although, I would not go back and change a thing! Donovan and I had a LOT of fun that year! LOL!

~my living room smells like dog! (hopefully anyone reading this will understand though lol! and is this considered a quirk?)

~I am mostly happy/satisfied with the way I look. I think this is one reason why it is so hard for me to diet and exercise. I do know that I am creeping on 30 and need to get in better shape...most women gain 10 pounds every 10 years(I read or heard this somewhere years ago and I will never forget it).

~I love chocolate, but I do not like chocolate ice cream or chocolate milk. Blech. I do, however, love Yoo-hoo's! And I still get a Yoo-hoo & Grandma's cookies(choc. chip of course) at the gas station sometimes, just like my daddy used to get for me! There is no better snack combination!

Thanks again, Amy, for tagging me! That was fun! And harder than I thought! I only have one person to pass this on to though, and that's Desiree. I don't know how she found me but I always appreciate her comments! I enjoy her blog too - her son is pretty darn cute!

A Savannah Funny

Last night Vannah had me cracking up! So I had to share the story before it was lost in my head forever. As most of you know, Vannah is a very prissy girl! She wears nothing but dresses when given the choice and has quite a few dress-up princess dresses that her & Carley love to play with. I store them on top of their closet, because if I didn't, that is all Vannah would wear!

So last night, after being "put to bed", I guess Vannah decided she NEEDED to wear one of those dresses. The next time I went to check on them, her and Carley had their princess dresses on! I had to know how in world she got them down, so I asked. She said "I tried and I tried and I KNOW I can do it!!" Just the way she said it and the way she emphasized "know" - it was soo funny! Like she read it out of a book! I said "well, honey, I see that you can do it but can you tell me how?" She responded "I got the chair and the pillows and bags[of clothes] and I climbed and I got it!" I seriously have no idea how she did not bust her ass. Everything was back in its place though, so at least she was orderly about it LOL! I let them wear the dresses for a while and then did the whole bedtime routine again. For real that time!
