6 Facts about me:

1. I am basically terrified of all animals. It doesn't matter what shape or size, if it's an animal I'm scared! I think it all started when I was in high school and was chased by a crazy squirrel up the entire street. Or it could have been that other time when I was babysitting for this family whose house was infested with mice. I bawled my eyes out while sitting on the counter with a spoon for protection. Traumatic, I know!

2. I'm pretty much a clean freak and a germaphobe. My newest compulsion is washing the hand towels every few days. They must be crawling with bugs, just thinking about it makes me sick. I would win the cake for "person who takes the longest to do the dishes ever." I have a little routine that includes spot cleaning, wiping, disinfecting, and drying just to make it simple. I hate wrinkled sheets and I love vacuum marks. Yeah, it's out of control.

3. I am ultra competitive. In fact I had to quit playing church volleyball because it was too painful to play with some of the women in our ward(aren't I just awful?). Whenever I go to the gym I "race" the person next to me, no matter the piece of equipment. I am just sure I can go longer and faster than they can.

4. I am very girly. I love being a girl. I love getting and giving myself pedicures and manicures. I look forward to spritzing perfume even if I'm just around my boys, and thoroughly enjoy putting on my make-up. You can't beat a cute outfit, especially with accessories and shoes to match.

5. I'm a people watcher. I could sit in a public place and watch people for hours. I think because I try to figure out why people do and say and wear things out and about when they know the world can see. People are so interesting.

6. Last but certainly not least, I love being a mom. I wouldn't trade it for any other job in the world. My boys are my most precious possession(and Wes too). One of my favorite parts is smelling their little heads after baths and having the clean aroma hit my senses. I love my boys laughter. They laugh better than any other kids I have ever heard. I love watching them as they sleep, they are truly angels. It has been the hardest, yet most rewarding thing I have ever done. I am glad I took the leap.

I don't have many blogs either so I tag, Chelsea, Sheriee, and Peg.
