10 Things you may not know about me

Evonne has these little lists on her blog every once in awhile and I love reading them, so I thought I'd play catch up now that I'm a little settled. Some of you may know some of things so sorry if it's nothing new, but for the rest of you enjoy :).

1. I love to cook and am obsessed with cookbooks! I love trying new recipes (even if I know they won't be popular with the kids), I regularly DVR food network programs. I can sit for hours looking up new recipes and I probably have close to 40 cookbooks and am always on the lookout for more. I prefer to make most things from scratch,which isn't always cheaper, but is much more tastier! I love to hear of recipes that you all have made and enjoyed. Continue to share please.

2. I suffer from a little bit of OCD. At least this is what my darling husband tells me. Okay, he's pretty correct in this observation. I color coordinate mine and the girls closet. I can't handle if pictures, towels or anything else aren't straight. And I am obsessed with how things get folded. I will go behind whoever folds the laundry and refold it before I put it away.

3. I can deal with poppy diapers and even diarrhea all day long, but I can't handle throw-up! One whiff of barf and I instantly become a casualty myself!

4. I am very interested in politics and can hold my own in an adult male conversation. I think I surprise many people in this area, especially men who think they can talk over me like I don't know what they are talking about. I've been known to correct people when they try to act like they know what they are talking about, when they don't. I'm a complete nerd and watch Bill O'Reilly most nights. I can't stand it when people are completely uninformed or misinformed and run their mouths.

5. My guilty pleasure is Desperate Housewives. I know, I know, but I love this show among others. But this is the one I am probably the most embarrassed about watching :).

6. I am deathly afraid of spiders. It pretty much speaks for itself. I really think I have a diagnosable phobia. Some people think it's funny and they try to mess with me, but it's not and I've been close to hyperventilating on occasion.

7. I HATE being pregnant. Being pregnant is the most miserable time of my life. I don't glow, I don't feel my best, I don't ever want to be pregnant again! I know this sounds awful, at least to though of you who have these amazing pregnancy's. Well I throw-up, have diarrhea, get terrible pains and just can't wait for the 9 mo. to be over! I would rather go through labor and delivery over and over again then to be pregnant for 9months! Don't get me wrong I LOVE my babies and I am so happy when they arrive, but the pre-arrival part just plain old SUCKS!

8. I love parties! I LOVE everything about a party. I love planning them, getting ready for them, participating in them, attending them. I just love parties. I love to plan my girls birthday's. I love the holiday's because there are so many opportunities to have parties and go to parties. When I grow up that's what I want to do, plan parties..weddings, birthdays, showers, holidays you name it. My life is a party!!!

9. I love all things Disney. I'm not too obsessed with having things in my house that are Disney, but I do love the movies and am pretty happy that my girls enjoy Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh and all things Princess(well I do love my Mickey Mouse cookie jar!). Beau's had enough of the princess thing, but I know in time they will move on to other things. I am so sad to be gone from Florida, because I loved having Disney World just an hour and a half away. For me it is a magical place that takes me back to my childhood and I love to see the look on the girls faces when they see their hero's.

10. I have a huge problem of interrupting people when they are talking :(. I'm sorry if I've ever done this to you and apologize in advance if I ever do it to you in the future. I am consciously trying to stop doing this. I think the reason why I do is that I have such a short memory span and if I don't say what I'm thinking at the time I completely forget what I was thinking. I promise to be better about this.

So there it is. 10 things you may not know about me! Now it's your turn for those of you that haven't done it before. Fill me in on 10 things about you! :)
