I've been tagged... and I'm glad I was because it has been way to long!

6 Random facts about me...

1. I love food, all kinds. There is not a single thing I don't like except... bananas. I hate bananas. I always say I am allergic to them, which is true, my mouth and throat swell up if I accidentally eat them, but even if I wasn't allergic, I would still hate them. They are slimy and gooey, and everyone eats them warm. Gross!

2. I am left handed. I love being left handed because I feel like it is unique. No one ever says, oh your right handed! Me too! Only lefties do that. I do everything left handed except cut, my mom never got me left handed scissors growing up, so I had to figure it out with my right hand.

3. Julianne Hough has my dream life. I told my husband this a couple weeks ago, and he laughed at me. If you don't know who she is she is the cute blond from dancing with the stars. First of all, I would love to be a ballroom dancer, it looks like so much fun. And recently she became a country music singer which is something I have secretly always wanted to do, and now she is on tour with Brad Paisley, who I love. Oh, and I wouldn't mind having her body either!

4. I am not OCD about hardly anything, I am pretty laid back and go with the flow, but a couple weeks ago I discovered I am very picky about one thing. I was at the grocery store and my basket was overflowing, so a worker decided he would help me unload the groceries onto the conveyor. I cringed, and watched in horror as he just started throwing things up there. I don't know about all of you, but I have a very specific method of putting the groceries on the conveyor. All like products have to go together so most of them end up in the same bag, it makes it easier when I get home to put things away. Also, all heavy things go first, and all lighter delicate things go last. I know, I am weird, but it's how I like it.

5. I love Oprah. There I said it! I have her on season pass on my tivo, so I never miss an episode. My friends always laugh at me when we are having a conversation and I'll say something like this, "the other day on Oprah..." Guilty pleasure I guess.

6. It is very hard for me to choose names for my kids because I don't want them to end up with a name that is easy to make fun of. Growing up I hated my name for that very reason. I was always called "Heidi Ho" which wasn't that bad until 6Th grade when someone called me "Hiny" and it stuck for years. Then by high school it went back to "Heidi Ho", and eventually just "Ho."
So I am due in two weeks and we still haven't finalized a name for our son. We got time, right!?

Now I tag, anyone who wants to share some random facts about themselves...

yay! I knew I had to tag you, if I wanted you to update!:)

I am the SAME way about the grocery thing. And you have to put the "freezer" items together, the "fridge" items together,etc. I think it is just that we found a way to make our lives easier when we get home.

Talia's pic at the top is SO STINKIN CUTE! I love the new layout!

First, I love your new look! And, Talia is so cute, of course! I am the same way about the groceries - it just makes life easier -especially if I only have time to put cold stuff away when I get home! I love it when I get a checker that does it that way, too.

Glad to see you updating and the new blog is cute! I'm the same way with groceries and it irritates me so bad when the little bagger boy splits up the same items into different bags. I'm sure I will be the same way naming kids cause we had a hard enough time naming our dog, lol!

So Payton was named Wade Allen in the hospital right after he was born. About 2 hours later I changed it to Payton Wade. You have time! :)

Heidi Brinton said...

Hey Heidi, I was blog surfing and found you so sorry I am kind of blog stalking you. I didn't know any of those things about you that is hilarious. I love your blog and the pictures of you and the fam, so cute! Good luck with the baby and all, I'm sure the name thing will come.

I love learning little tidbits about people.
I totally agree about the grocery thing. But, I am ocd in many other ways too. I love the blog layout. I need to figure out how to do that. I decorate my house, why not my blog. We had a hard time picking out names for Camila, Sophia and Eliza. Savannah was the only one we 'knew". good luck!
