AGhhhh! TAGGED!



Thanks very much Kate! For everyone else, Kate has tagged me to reveal 6 quirky things about myself. Hmmmm. thinking, thinking, no - baby brain has stepped in again. It feels like writer's block but I don't even have the excuse of sleep deprivation cos Jesse hasn't woken up during the night since week 7! Oh well here goes....

1. I don't finish the dregs of the cereal boxes....well that's valid - it turns to mush to quickly.urghhh! This however frustrates the heck out of my husband...who by the way never eats cereal so I really don't think he has a say in it now does he??

2. I always roll over to face the window when Kieren comes to bed. It's not that I dislike sharing - its just that I can't stand anyone breathing on my face. In fact this is so ingrained that Kieren has even purposely breathed on my face when I'm in deep sleep (gross I know!) if I'm taking up too much room on his side!! He says it works 100% Hmmmmm.....I would never take up too much room anyway!!

3. I often compare the scent of something with the taste of something else. Kieren thinks this is silly but a number of my female friends think these comparisons are quite valid. Maybe female brains are wired in a more complicated manner!

4. I don't follow recipes. They are only guides - recipes are guidelines that can always be bettered with additional ingredients or slight deviations until a meal is created that is a conglomeration of a few recipes. And yes this also frustrates other family members who ask for the recipe and I can only give approximates off the top of my head!!

5. Breastfeeding is boring. I know - it's meant to be such a nice bonding experience but sitting on a couch for anywhere between 3-8 hours a day is FRUSTRATING for someone who has lists of stuff to get done. Abbey was Ok feeding in 7 mins flat - so what's that 35mins a day but Ellie and Jesse were/are just cruisey kids who are quite content to feed for hours and hours....only 5 more months to go ;)

6. Last one. Ummmm. I'm going to repeat one of yours Kate. I hate massages - the body ones that is. Shoulder massages are ok but I just find that I'm TOO ticklish. And there's nothing more embarrassing trying to contain your giggles during a serious massage that Kieren has surprised me with (cos he would have one every day if he could). So maybe that's a hint for you K or anyone else thinking about a massage gift voucher - Don't waste your money!!!

Well that's all folks - nothing too out there I don't think!!
I'm gonna tag: Melinda
Melanie
and I'll have to email the others cos I don't think anyone else has a blog!!

PS No I'm not 40 weeks pregnant again - it's just the only photo I've had taken of myself in the last year. Anyway - I reckon I look alright - given I went into labour that night. No wonder I just had to get the photo done that day. And no - I did not need a sleep - photos were much more important - thank you very much Kieren although in hindsight it may have been better!!

I am like, so excited here. Finally my friends are seeing the magic of blogs...we can all "see" each other all the time! In fact, more than when we lived round the corner from each other! Okay so maybe it's just a sad fact of the digital age, but hey it's better than a tin can and string I reckon :) xx
