I've Been Tagged....

My friend, Melissa, tagged me with this through her blog so here I go....7 random facts about me:

1. I am a list maker. I actually made a list of things to put in this post. I make lists everyday and I am so obsessive that if I have to add things, or I don't like my handwriting, I rewrite the list! I know, crazy huh? I love lists and I have no idea how people live without them. I do not make lists for Rhonald...that was something I promised I would never do although I would like to every now and then!

2. I love the smell of fresh cut grass and burning leaves. I love them so much that I even mowed the yard when we bought this house just to smell it. Of course, that stopped when I got pregnant and I have not picked it back up since!

3. I pray every time I rock Cole. It is about the most relaxing and peaceful time in my day. I rock him before each nap and bedtime and that is my "quiet time." I love it.

4. I wish I was southern. I was born in Michigan and have wonderful memories but I wish I could say I was truly southern. I try and I do well but there is a difference. I love the traditions of the South...the sweet tea, the porches, the Sunday picnics after church...the lazy days. If you have never lived here you think I am crazy and cannot understand but there is something so charming about it and I love it.

5. In another life I would have loved to be the star in a musical! Not any musical mind you...a musical on Broadway! When I am alone in the car (not often) I tend to put in a CD from one of my favorite shows and sing like crazy! If you know me well at all you know...I CANNOT SING (and I have never been in a play)! But I love to think I would be awesome if given the chance in another life.

6. I do not like popcorn. Well, I should say, I only like homemade popcorn and I am so lucky to have a father in law that will make it for me whenever I ask!

7. I am very proud that I have breastfed Cole for a year (well almost...we only have 3 weeks to go) and that I made all of his baby food.

Now I tag.....Kellie, Rachel C, Rachel G, Emily, Deidre, Margaret and Amy M!
