The RULES:

A. The rules of the game are posted at the beginning.

B. Each player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.

C. At the end of the post, the player then tags 6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know that they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog....

First off, I think this is a funny picture of me, and it goes with one of my 6 facts. It was taken the first year Adam and I were married and we didn't have much to worry about except March Madness...

Here are 6 facts you may not know about me, in no particular order:

1. I hate winter driving. This is kind of a bad thing because I live in Utah where it happens to snow a tad...(example: Today alone we got like 8 or more inches). When I have drive in the snow, the radio is off and I have a pep talk the whole way. The conversation goes something like this: Okay! You can do it! Oh, careful on the hill! Okay! Just go slow! Added to this pep talk are white knuckles from gripping the steering wheel and an increased pulse....what can I say? At least now I don't have to go somewhere every single day.

2. Nintendo rocks! Last year, (Christmas 2006) I gave Adam a Nintendo game for Christmas that I ended up beating while he was gone for work. This year I got a game for our Wii and now I count the minutes until Macey's nap times so I can play....sad I know.

3. I hate doing laundry. I would rather change 45 dirty diapers and do 200 loads of dishes instead of do laundry. I don't know why I hate it so much, I just do..

4. Sometimes I hope Adam will turn sports on the TV so I can watch too. See, I like watching sports, especially basketball (and March Madness ROCKS!) but I feel like a dork if I turn a game on. Also, I read SI and ESPN the magazine....

5. I love being a mom. I didn't know that staying home all day could be so fun. Even though Macey wears me out and is still so small, I love being here with her. I really consider it a privilege to be at home with my daughter and to get to see her grow and change every day.

6. I have given up on wearing jeans. Now, if you watch the show "What Not to Wear," you would know that the hosts would not be happy about this statement. However, I don't worry too much about it because I think I can dress myself well enough to avoid going on the show. After Macey was born, I had a hard time finding pants that fit and maternity pants were just not going to work for me...yuck. Jeans were especially hard. And, after wearing them a time or 17 billion because they were the only things that fit, I decided I hate the way they feel. Chinos or khaki pants are so much more comfortable and still look good too.

So, there you have it. Six things you didn't know or even need to know about me...
