I've been tagged...

Huh. Since I was named specifically on this tag I figure I better play along - ha! Simple rules but I am not that interesting... and I think most people that would read this know these things

Here are the rules: Write 7 random things about yourself. Tag 7 people at the end of your post. Pass on the tag.

7 Random things about me:
1. I've been skydiving and I loved it! I will go again someday... when there is not a baby in my belly.
2. I've always wanted to get my pilots license.
3. My 3 siblings and I were all adopted - brothers were born in Oregon, my sister and I were born in Korea (not biologically related, though.
4. It's a given that I'm a nerd, but freshman year of college I chatted online daily. Looking back I have to wonder why...
5. I am scared of the dark and get spooked super easy. However I enjoy scary movies and haunted houses and corn mazes.
6. I keep an (almost) daily journal and I love to go back and read it. Please note it is also helpful when your hubby thinks he remembers one thing but the truth has been documented - haha!
7. I could possibly be classified as a "neat freak" because I love things to be orderly, whether it's at my desk at work or at home. I like to clean, all but showers. [Kelley teases and tells me I have OCD].

Who to tag? Do I know 7 people that read our blog? I will guess... Michelle, Brittney, Jessica, Annie, Jerilee, Kristy, and Rhanda. Ready, set, go!

Book Tag

I got book tagged so here goes... ya caught me reading a book about vampires and werewolves. Can you guess what it is? Yep, not generally my style but I gave in to peer pressure and read the Twilight Series.

Rules:

1. Get the book that's on your nightstand (or whatever you happen to be reading).
2. Open it to page 56 and find the 5th sentence.
3. Post the next couple of sentences on your blog, along with these instructions.
4. Do not go and find your favorite book; it has to be the one you are reading now!
5. Tag five other people to do the same. [I pass, but people can do it if they want because I'm always looking for recommendations for reading]


Book 4 - Breaking Dawn, Page 56, sentence 5 (and a few more) read...
"The music changed, and Charlie tapped on Edward's shoulder. It was nearly as easy to dance with Charlie. He was no better at it than I was, so we moved safely from side to side in a tiny square formation. Edward and Esme spun around us like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers."




Nothing terribly exciting or inspiring but they are good books to read for some light reading.

oh my goodness!

We've now made it into the 3rd trimester officially! Time flies and we are so excited. My health seems good and my belly is poking out more and more. The baby kicks around and has a good ole' time in there. I think she had the hiccups the other day, which was kind of neat. I will post a picture of me sometime this week when I have Kelley take one.

Here is our new crib bedding set, thanks to Sherril! We got the 3 piece bedding, the mobile, lamp, and diaper hanger. We have a light oak crib, which we haven't set up yet, compliments of my bro and his wife. Lucky us!
















As for a "color scheme" we have decided to go with an all color theme and not limit ourselves since we don't have a "nursery" at this time. Maybe we'll settle more on a color once we figure out where we will settle.
