"Night-night!"

N got this little gloworm for Christmas, but A has adopted it as his own. It plays about 5 different songs and when the song is winding down, the little face slowly goes dark. The little face reminded me of a moon.


My friend Rebecca tagged me for 7 random facts about myself. I told her I would accept the challenge, so here are 7 random things about me that are current.

1. I like to dance with my eldest son. We will turn on the radio for some tunage and then, dance like there is no one watching.

2. When I sit at the computer desk, I have to elevate my legs somehow. There is no rhyme or reason or medical necessity, I just do it.

3. After I get a professional haircut, 90% of the time I continue to trim it myself after I get home. Definitely an obsession of mine.

4. I dislike wearing coats, even in sub-zero temps. Don't worry though, I'll have a down vest on.

5. I crack my toe knuckles constantly (or so it seems...)

6. I don't have much of a sense of smell...sad, but true.

7. Bathtime with the boys is one of my favorite times ever!

Now...if you've got some time, go give my friend Rebecca some love. You can reach here here http://twiaa.blogspot.com/ She just relocated across the country, is pregnant and has a toddler at home.

That was fun to read & learn more about! I have my own "computer time habits" too. It'd be nice not to have such a sense of smell when having babies around, I think, then you don't have to be tortured by their stinky diapers when you have to be so close to change them. And I laughed about the glow worm. For Christmas we got each kid one of those white bears that light up and change colors. I thought it'd be great since my boy loves to go to sleep with a flashlight... but it backfired, he is terrified of that bear... it makes me laugh!!

He he...we have the same worm, but it took me a minute to recognize him. Love him! And I ALWAYS trim my hair after a haircut. I thought I was the only one. Eek!

Tera Fraley said...

Jess said...

I love Gloworms! Kaitlyn has a "veggie tales" version of the gloworm... it is the little broccoli guy (I can never remember his name- is it Junior?) and he sings a lullaby in that cute little voice of his!

I totally relate to your "weird" habits... I love to dance with Kaitlyn, I have to sit cross-legged at the computer, and I also have the inescapable desire to re-cut my hair after I've paid for a cut! Too funny!

So you are the one I stole the idea from for today's pictures! Thanks bunches for the inspiration! As for your photo --- great. My son got a glow worm for his first Christmas. His grandma said it reminded her of him because he had to wear a billy blanket for a few days after he was born. Cute shot of the worm's face!

One of my sons used to sleep with his "gwow bebe" when he was little. Now hes 18 and would not like the idea of me announcing that all over the world.

What a fun shot. I love it. Very creative.
You trim your own hair? Good for you. I tried it once. Not pretty.

Jen said...

I remember these! My DD had one and liked it. Cool picture!

Mandy said...

I just love your random facts, and your photo.

You don't have a sense of smell. Well, that could come in handy when changing diapers, and I do have this smelly guy that goes to the gym that I could live without smelling.

Becky said...

Oh, that's cool! Love the floating head look. I also enjoyed learning a little more about you.

Val said...

LOL ! Love the glow worm! When Alex was born, he was jaundiced and had to stay on a bili-blanket, which glowed green. We always called him our little glow worm!

It's always great to find out more about a fellow pea!
