Oct '08. I'm always amazed at how flexible these little guys are. Ben sleeps during the day, and we'd just gone in to wake him up. I set Sweety on the bed, and in order to have a face to face chat with his father, he just kind of folded himself in half. It was totally cute!
7 Random Things
RULE:
Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
1- I hate folding laundry more than just about any other chore in the house. Seriously. Bring on the toilets to scrub, but please, don't make me fold clothes!!!! It drives me crazy that laundry never gets completely done. Even as your putting laundry away, you're dirtying more laundry!!!! Aaaaaggggghhhhhh!
2- I'm totally claustrophobic. I can't even stand having my arms pinned to my side. The mere thought of crawling into a sleeping bag upside-down makes me nauseous and my heart race. It's completely ridiculous!
3- I dig heights. Have you heard about hiking Angel's Landing down in Zion's Park, Utah? That would be the hike were for the last 100 yards of the trail, they've provided a chain for you to hold onto, while you crawl, because the trail is only about 2 feet wide and on either side, the mountain drops away for a couple thousand feet.
At the end, the trail widens out into a platform about 10' by 15'.
It's the most amazing feeling in the world to stand there with your arms out, feel the wind blow on your face, and take in the whole park from that great height! It's almost like you're flying! It makes my palms sweat to just think about it, but I can't wait to go back and hike it again some day!!!Looking up at Angel's Landing
The prize that awaits, if you make it to the end:
4- I am a dedicated tummy sleeper. There are two positions I am able to sleep in: face down leaning slightly to the left or face down leaning slightly to the right. That's it.
5- Like many women, I HATE wearing shoes. The first thing I do when I come in my house or the house of a loved one is take off my shoes. It's not even March yet, there's still snow on the ground, but I've busted out the flip-flops, because my feet were slowly suffocating over the winter.
6- I have a weak sense of smell. My mom only smells once in a while. (and because she isn't able to identify smells, it usually sends her into a panic when she can. *giggle* ) My grandma (mom's mom) couldn't smell anything at all, ever, to my knowledge.
This condition has totally affected my ability to cook and the foods I like and dislike. For example: I never got what the big whoop is about soda! It's just really sugary water that burns your throat all the way down! What on earth is so pleasant about that?! But Ben informed me that carbonation is accompanied by some olfactory experience that's just fantastic. Hmm. Totally lost on me.
7- I don't wear shorts. Ever. Well that's not entirely true, I do wear shorts when swimming. Anyone who's seen my legs in recent history completely understands why. I'll admit, I have some beautiful features, but my legs are nowhere near that list.
Thanks for listening y'all!

My husband took my dad and brother on that hike about three years ago, and when they came home Mike told me that I would not have made it up the trail. Which, looking your picture from the very top, is true! I am afraid of heights, and just looking at your picture makes me dizzy! =)
I like the part about "NO SHOES". (aunt)Sandy's sister Jerry was down fro Kevin's wedding. Well went over that Sunday for a visit. I walk into the house and Jeri says "where are your shoes". I said that i don't like to where shoes, flip flops are what I like. I get upset when I have to put on shoes and sox.
Way cute moment in the pic. I would go on that hike with you!
i hate folding laundry so bad. i too would rather scrub toilets. forever.
Are you "encouraging" me to stop neglecting my blog? ;)
Folding clothes is evil but not as evil as ironing. I HATE ironing!!!
I hated folding clothes when the kids were little. It was hard. Four kids and too much laundry. Socks were the worst. I love bare feet. However, we rent out the upstairs and lived down, so the floor is cold and my bones hurt if I don't have something warm on my toes and under my feet.
I don't always sign into the blog, so I missed it and have to catch up. I was sick all through March. I'll catch up plus read all your other blogs. I like to do that.
