tag!

my sister bethany tagged me a little while ago and i've been taking my sweet time about it. so here we go...

the rules:
1. link to the person that tagged you.
2. post the rules on your blog.
3. share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
4. tag at least three people at the end of your post and link to their blogs.
5. let each person know they've been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
6. let the fun begin!

1. i have read 'pride and prejudice' almost once a year since i was in 7th grade. every time i read it i enjoy it and i find new things and gain new insights. if you haven't read it, you should - along with all the other jane austen novels out there.
2. i used to hate wearing pants (i think that came from growing up in las vegas). shorts were all i'd wear. when capris became popular i would swear i'd never wear them - i thought they were so weird. i'm not sure when it started, but i feel like i wear pants all the time - including when it's hot. i also wear capris.
3. some of my favorite clothes are maternity clothes. i do, however, only wear them when i'm pregnant because (thankfully!) they'd never fit otherwise.
4. i have all the words to 'where the wild things are' (story and pictures by maurice sendak) memorized - including where all the page turns are. it's benny's favorite book and there are days that i've read it countless times.
5. i love having quilts around. i love piecing them together myself and i love having them from others. we have a huge stack of quilts in our living room and i still plan on adding more. how many quilts is too many?
6. i was running out of ideas, so i kind-of stole this one from bethany, but it's true. i love to be outside. it's the best during spring/summer when you don't have to worry about it being cold at all. although i also love fall sweater weather when you can walk around breathing the brisk air. i'm also glad i walked so much over the winter before andy was born. it was so nice breathing the fresh air. i just love the fresh air and it makes me crazy when i realize at the end of the day that i've only been outside to throw diapers away.

i'm tagging heidi, jordyn, and lisa

Caleb actually traveled really well until we both got a cold while in Florida and then flew home. That was the worst plane ride ever, but we survived. Anyway, hope you are recovering well and have enough energy to keep up with Benny (and Andy, too)! I love the name Andy...I am going to name one of my boys that, too (presuming I'm crazy enough to do this again!!! Which I probably am.) .
