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!

Meme-licious!

Tiffany at Lattes and Life and Piper at Bliss in Bloom both tagged me for very similar memes. So, I am going to incorporate them together. Tiffany’s requires 5 random things about me and 5 places I’d like to see or see agian, and Piper’s required 6 random things about me, so here ya go: 6 random things about me and 5 places I’d like to see or see again!

1) I have never had a cavity, despite the fact that I’m not the most faithful flosser
2) I drink a glass of chocolate milk every morning
3) I don’t miss working, but I do miss getting dressed up for work
4) I had my appendix out when I was 18
5) I really hate clipping my toe nails
6) I’m so vain, I probably think this meme is about me

5 places I’d like to see or see again:
1) Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (see again!)
2) Hawaii
3) Boston
4) Philadelphia
5) Isle of Palms, SC (see again)

Ok, I’ve just depressed myself with how boring I am. But…there you have it! Try not to be too fascinated! Did you see anything we have in common? I’m not going to tag anyone, but feel free to grab this and play along if it strikes your fancy!

A Toddler has Hijacked my Blog!

Hi everyone this is Sophia Diane, also known as Sophie, SoSo, Sophie Mophie, Soph, and Moph. Hannah, whose mommy Jill writes the Diaper Diaries, tagged me to tell you 8 things about myself. So here goes!

1. I am 13.5 months old and have NO teeth. Although my top front two are really close, so who knows, maybe I’ll pop ’em through this week. In the meantime, my teeth and I are having fun keeping Mommy guessing.

2. My favorite movie is Moe and the Big Exit from Veggie Tales. When it is on I will stare at the TV enraptured for the whole hour! Not that my mom lets me watch TV or anything. I mean, as I mentioned, I am only 13.5 months old. That’s crazy! Ahem….

3. I love to nurse and even though my Mommy is trying to wean me, I think I will nurse until at least 1st grade.

4. I love to play with my hair, especially when I am sleepy.

5. I hate sitting in a shopping cart. I would much rather stand in the seat part, backwards, especially if my brother is in the big part of the cart. I have yet to meet a cart seat belt I couldn’t get past!

6. My mommy may have told you that I am training to be an Olympic diver or gymnast. Well, last week I dove into the tub when there was NO water in it. It wasn’t as much fun as when there was water.

7. When I was seven months old, I did a photo shoot for the Evenflo Snugli. I was fairly sure I was gonna be famous, but we have yet to see the pictures appear on anything. Still one day I am hoping to see my mug on the Snugli box!

8. I hate laying still to have my diaper changed or my clothes put on! I don’t know why my mommy trys to make me do tha tall the time. It is a major buzzkill!

Well now I am supposed to tag some friends, so I am going to tag my BIRTHDAY BUDDY Little Man at Lattes and Life. We were born the EXACT same day isn’t that cool?? And also I am tagging Becca whose Mommy is Deb Mom of 3 Girls, cause I wanna hear about life with sisters!

Thanks for reading! I am going to go do one of my favorite things ever…WRECK my brother’s train track! Mu-ha-ha-ha (evil toddler laugh)!
