Did You Know?

First, let me say thank you to all of the nice comments on my 2 posts below.  I've been so nervous about what the reaction would be and I'm so happy to hear that I'm not a looney who is out of my league.  If you haven't, vote on my poll on my sidebar on which name sounds better for my business name.  Man that sounds weird...

And here is a picture I took today of Naomi playing outside for our first outdoor playtime.  The weather has finally been good enough (no wind) for me to take her outside!  Joy!
And back to my Did You Know? post.
  • That I am a certified Aerobic instructor? I really enjoy it. I just don't have a building to teach in or time in my schedule at the moment.
  • That I know how to fix everything on the header of my swather(tractor that cuts hay/alfalfa) back home? I always felt so handy out there with my tools replacing blades and guards and screws.
  • My toenails are never naked
  • My fingernails are always naked
  • I like my hair blonde better but hate the grow out and it's so spendy to keep up with it
  • I had half a treatment of laser hair removal back home in Washington on my underarms. Then I moved and never went back to finish it. It would cost $75 here to finish - something I really want to do
  • I have sprained both of my ankles. One tripping on an apple and the other playing soccer - both during soccer season taking me out for the rest of the season my 9th and 11th grade years. 
  • I hate mustard. Jaren loves it. He tried to get me to eat it while pregnant because he was convinced Naomi would like it.

Did You Know?

That I pick the bread off the edges of my sandwiches and burgers?  I feel like I have to have an even amount of stuff (meat, cheese, lettuce..) and bread.  And around the edges there is too much bread.  Drives Jaren nuts.  But he says it's "endearing".  I'm convinced that the things that annoy him he says are "endearing" to convince himself they are :)

I never felt, until recently (past 8 months or so... blaming it on pregnancy) that I have crooked teeth.  Never had braces, but I almost want them to fix my two front teeth.  My dentist says he can round them to make them look more strait.  So now I want that and whitening, but don't want to shell out the $150 or so.  So, I smile a lot with my mouth closed.

I cracked my nose when I was 5.  Doctor wanted to put stitches in and I cried and told him No because I didn't want the scar.  I'm quite proud of my 5 year old self.  I still have the scar and can feel where the crack was.

I met Jaren in March and didn't let him hold my hand or kiss me until August.  We dated off and on that whole time.  It took me a long time to realize how I felt.  And I didn't want to hurt such a nice guys feelings by leading him on, so I never let it happen.

I played Softball, Soccer, Basketball and was on the dance team in high school.  I also played Softball for four seasons in college and was on the championship team three of those times.  I'm currently looking for a league to join for this summer.  But soccer is still my favorite sport.

I am a horrible housekeeper.  Like now, I'm blogging and I have two basket's of laundry that need folded, two bathrooms that need to be cleaned and my entire house needs to be vacuumed.  I have such a hard time being motivated.  But once I get going I get a ton done. 

I enjoy making cards.  One day I'll show you what I've done.  I want to sell them to feed my photography fetish.  And my jean fetish.

I love jeans.  I love designer jeans.  I have never paid full price for a pair.  I don't have quite the collection I would like.  I have 5 pair and I'm looking for 3 more from different designers.  But if you saw the amount of jeans I had in my closet you'd give me a good shove. 

I have a ridiculous amount of clothes I don't wear.  I wanted to get back down to my pre-preg weight so I could try them on and get rid of the ones that don't fit right or that I don't want.  I need to do that.  Last night I pulled a few, but most I thought, "I might need that someday".  I just need to get rid of them.  It will give me an excuse to buy new if the occasion ever comes where I actually need the item I discarded.  The entire collection is from when I was 15 years old to now.  It's silly.

I sing and dance for my daughter.  I look like a nincompoop but she thinks I'm awesome.  So I do it everyday. 

I probably kiss her over 100 times a day.  I am constantly lotioning her cheeks because of it.
