Three Magic Words. Okay, Four.

A drool-covered Sophie (she is teething soooo hard right now!) climbs up on the couch and then onto my lap. She stands up, and plays with my hair a little bit. Then she wraps both her soft little arms around my neck, presses her drooly cheek against mine, and says: “Eyelowyeeewwww. Eyelowyeeewwww.”

I love you. She just started saying it this week, and it’s the sweetest thing ever. Makes my heart melt every time.

Guess what else she finally started saying this week, at the ripe old age of 21 months?

Mommy.

Finally!

She loves me and she says my name!

It’s been a pretty good week around here.

UnSpectacularness

I haven’t done a meme in for-ev-ah, partially because for awhile there I was getting tagged for the same ones OVER AND OVER and t was getting a *smidge* old. But since it’s been a while, and since I can’t say no to Piper of Bliss in Bloom who tagged me, here goes! Enjoy the “Six Unspectacular Quirks” meme. Here is some general unspectacularness about me:

1) I cannot sleep without my super-loud roaring white noise machine. I take it with me where ever I travel! If it doesn’t go, I don’t go.

2) I love to have my hair played with. (But not by Sophie, who likes to jerk it out from the root.) On vacation I let Krisha and Kierstin put my hair in a million braids (it was HOTT) just because it felt sooo gooood.

3) I hate clipping my toenails. Hate Hate Hate IT!

4) I hate wearing shorts. Ick.

5) When I get a headache, the only thing that helps it is aspirin – so I take something with aspirin like Excedrin. Advil and Tylenol just don’t help my headaches though I do take them for other aches and pains. (Of course I haven’t been taking much aspirin since I am stteeeeiiilllllll nursing Sophie.)

6) I like wheat bread, but I only like grilled cheese sandwiches on white bread. I will eat it on wheat only if desperate.

Ok, now I get to tag six lucky people to do this meme!! Get excited! I think I’ll tag some of my crazy frugal friends!

Alyssa from Keeping the Kingdom First
Marin from Frugonomics
“Deal”icious Mom
Nicole at Being Frugal is Fabulous
Michelle at Leaving Excess
Jamie at Thrifty in the Cincy

Have fun ladies! I can’t wait to read about your quirks!
