Tagged by Julia, the sweet lady that holds my baby every Sunday, and my friend of course!

1- I am a night owl. Always have been. And much to my chagrin, always will be. I have to be the last one to go to sleep (and typically have been the last to get up). Even in high school it just felt odd to go to sleep before everyone else and I was usually up studying anyway. So between that and pulling too many all-nighters in college I am ruined for life. I envy all you morning people and have tried endlessly to change my internal clock. Oh well, I guess you make the best of what you've got!

2- I am a picker - there I admitted it! I pick at everything. Lance likes to make fun of me b/c I can't seem to sit down to nurse Kalem without picking at his ears or dry skin or whatever. As you can imagine cradle cap on my babies drives me BONKERS! Funny thing is that I seem to have passed it down to my girls, too. If you ever need stickers pulled off something or the paper pulled down on a crayon give it to Adelle and Emory. They'll take care of it..... even when you don't want the stickers taken off, they'll take care of it, LOL.

3- I love doing laundry and am a bit anal about it (yes, Natalie, I can see you nodding your head and laughing). Lance knows that no matter what, you don't touch my laundry b/c I am so particular about it. Does that mean it's always folded and put away? No. I did pretty good up until Emory was born and then at some point after that I got behind in putting it away and well, I'm not sure I ever got caught up. Maybe I should rephrase that to say I love washing laundry.

4- I very rarely have any desire to watch TV or movies (especially chick-flicks, blech!) I get so bored and can't stop thinking about everything that needs done. If I do watch movies, it's usually just kid-type movies or something like The Chronicles of Narnia.... well except for anything Jared Hess (gosh!).

5- I have a terrible habit of taking on too much... and I don't mean that in a good way. I put way too much on my plate b/c I seem to think I can do it all and then I wonder why I am pulling my hair out. In high school, it was working 30 hours/week and having no life. In college, it was taking 18-21 credits each semester while working part-time. And now it's just the life of a mom I guess and wearing all the different 'hats' that come with church, community, school, home and gardening, etc. Sometimes I think it stems from pride. Whatever it is, things always seem to work out so I never learn my lesson. I'm trying to realize that I have more control over it than i think.

6- I am a clean-freak, but not a clutter-freak.... if that makes any sense, LOL. I hate taking on the chore of organizing. It seems like such a huge project. So at first glance my house can seem untidy - things left out and not put away. But.... it's the little things that get cleaned more often. You know, the little things that no one will ever notice. For example, I can't stand when my air-return ducts are dusty and I have to wipe down all the baseboards regularly, and I can't stand it when the kitchen sink is dirty. I need to have the small details clean, but not necessarily the big stuff. Weird, I know.

There, now you know way more than you ever wanted to about me.

I think almost everyone I know with a blog has already been tagged.... so let's see....

Jessica, Natalie, KoriAnn, Heather P., and Megan (if you're still reading here - b/c you crack me up!)
