Cute 'lil Livy!

Olivia learned to clap a little over a week ago. It is the cutest thing! She is very proud of herself. She also has learned to dance. She dances while in her high chair, while nursing, and while getting her diaper changed! It's hard to believe she is almost 8 months old! Where has the time gone!?

I've been Tagged!


Okay, so I have been tagged a few times before & never followed through with it, so I thought today I would! My sweet friend Kristen is the one who tagged me.......so here's to you Kristen! :)

So, when you have read mine, if your name is at the bottom, I guess you're it! :)

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.

1. I am a total project starter & am always quick & excited to get going on things, but it always seems to take forever for me to complete these wonderful projects! In fact, when I start one thing, I automatically start on something else, and occassionally, I may even start on a third thing to make things more exciting! Maybe I have adult ADD! :) This mostly occurs when I am cleaning or organizing! I must say, that when the job does get done, it is AMAZING & almost PERFECT!

2. I have to have my clothes hanging in the closet a very particular way. They all have to face the same direction & have to all be color coordinated. Whites are always first, then off whites, blacks, reds, pinks, purples, blues, greens, browns, yellows, oranges, and greys. I used to seperate the long sleeved from the short sleeved & did the whole color process with them as well, but last night I cleaned out my closet & decided that it was time to have the short sleeve's meet the long sleeves! Isn't that ridiculous!?

3. I love to run! I know most people think I am crazy that I love to run. I think when I trained for & ran the St. George Marathon, I was the most content, happy person. I was doing something that I love every single day! I looked so forward to the long runs, 15+ miles! Unless you are a runner, you will probably never understand the LOVE of running, of course, anyone can become a runner & experience that love for themselves. Since being pregnant & then having Liv, I have not been able to really get into a good pattern of running. I have missed it & when I see people outside running, I really am envious & wish that it was me out there. I have started up again & hope to run a marathon or two before this year is over!

4. This one is a bad habit. Definetly something I am working on this year! I ALWAYS have good intentions of doing something nice or helping others out, but then life gets in the way & I just don't do these wonderful things. There's not much more that I can say about this one, except that I really do hope to start acting this year on the promptings I get to help others!

5. I have been told this for most of my life, at least from my early teens on, that I am a good listener. And with that, I am a good talker as well! :)

6. I am a very EMOTIONAL person! For those of you who know me well, I cry at the drop of a hat! I wouldn't say that I am ultra sensitive & get my feeling hurt easily, but I am very intune with my emotions. I cry over silly commercials or things I hear on the radio. For instance, a few days before Christmas, a local radio station that I listen to put on an entire Christmas for a family & even hooked them up with a Disney Cruise & all. I was bawling like a baby! Poor Brayden was not sure what to think of his crazy mom! :) I can't get through any lesson I teach at church with out a few tears shed! Not that it is a bad thing, but I don't necessarily like wearing my emotions on my sleeves!

Okay, that was fun! Let's see....... Kelly Galbraith, Jess Cutler, Andrea Nelson, Racheal Bassett, Becky Platt, & Natalee Webb-TAG, YOU ARE IT!
