4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same.
5. Leave a comment to let them know.


1. I am oc about our money. Seriously. People who know how obsessed I am probably make fun of me so much! I check our account at LEAST once a day. I always know exactly to the penny how much money we have in the bank. I keep a register and record everything. Ricky was probably pretty annoyed when we first got married and I required his receipts from every purchase he made that day, but I think he's used to it by now. I also keep a register for our credit card. I guess I just want to know that every single purchase is legit and I want to know exactly what our payoff is. I used to keep a register for our savings, but since I check our accounts every day and nothing comes OUT of savings, I decided this was pointless.

2. I can only chew gum for a few minutes. If I have a piece of gum in my mouth for longer than five or ten minutes my jaw hurts and really I am just sick of chewing it. Again, Ricky probably is annoyed that I "waste" so much gum, but I don't chew it very often.

3. I LOVE being pregnant and having babies! :) I debated for a long time whether or not this counted as something weird...but I think most women probably think this is pretty abnormal. I love the feeling of the cute little bump. From the time I find out I'm pregnant I always lie down and try to feel my enlarging uterus. I just love it! I love when you can start feeling the baby move, and kick and hiccup! I love giving birth and having that brand new baby in my arms. (this may only be because I've never had any serious complications and could change in the future...)

4. I am always baby hungry! I really hope this goes away SOMEDAY or I'll end up with like 20 kids! This is really unfortunate since I love being pregnant. For reals, I have to talk myself out of getting pregnant and having another baby ALL THE TIME!! It's hard, cause if I were to tell Ricky that I wanted another baby, he would be all for it, all the time! He loves being a dad and can't wait to bring more sweet spirits into the world, so it's all up to me to convince myself that we need to wait. It kinda gets annoying. Instead of convincing myself to have another baby I have to convince myself that I'm not really ready. Hello! I have a 2 1/2 yr old and a 1 yr old (just barely!) I still have 2 in diapers!! I know...we're nuts.

5. I hate other people's feet. I could never touch them! I babysit occasionally and decided to paint the girls' toenails. I trimmed Kassi's toes (she's my daughter...it's different) and then I thought for sure there was no way I was going to trim the other little girls, but they were really long and needed it. :( It was seriously one of the hardest things I've done in my life! On the other hand, I trim my toe nails and scrub/lotion up my feet every night before I go to bed. ??

6. I brush my teeth all the time. I brush them at least 3 times a day, more if I leave the house. I HATE the feeling of anything on them or if I feel like I don't have fresh breath. Ricky really makes fun of me for this one, but at least my mouth is always clean!

7. Ricky and I don't ever really fight. He is SO laid back and easy going. He is the best and easiest husband ever! Being married is so natural for us because he is SO good to me!! Our first year, which most people say is the hardest, was so easy and natural...and after 4 years, they have only gotten better. If we pay all the bills and only have $50 for groceries for the next 2 weeks, he just thinks it's great that we can pay all our bills. He is perfect for me since I stress about everything! The only time we ever really have a disagreement is when I think he doesn't care ENOUGH! :) What a great guy! Since I despise contention...Ricky is a perfect fit for me! Thanks babe for being so great!

8. I have always wanted to be in a beauty pageant. haha. I know! I'm not sure WHY, but the idea has always intrigued me. Ever since I was like 10! I thought when I got married my chances were gone forever, but oh no! They have Mrs. Utah pageants, and you don't have to have a talent! Oh ya! I've looked into it. Little crazy since I don't consider myself real "beauty pageant material", but don't to be too surprised if I do it someday just so I can stop thinking about doing it! Wow...I never thought I'd let my little secret out! haha!

oops...I was only supposed to do 6, oh well!

I tag: Charise, Karen, Shaunna, Kallee, Bonnie, & Loretta :)

Kim, you were born to be a baby making machine! You are such a great mom. Thank for tagging me! I will try and narrow my quirks down to just 6 (or 8, in your case)...haha ;)
