All I have to say is, you are definitely one beautiful woman - inside and out.

Excellent list. I can answer the ‘describes you’ one as I just did it to my daughter ‘I’m reading that Kelly’s blog…you know…the funny American girl.’ I was laughing out loud at the pipe cleaner pics.
So 5 things about me;
1. I too would like to write a book and once had a short story published when I was at university. However, can’t come up with a single good idea. If I can’t be JK Rowling I am not playing!
2. I fart all the time. I am just a great big bag of gas. I now actually avoid dried apricots and any lentils because of this.
3. I am learning to sign (Auslan not ASL). We are not allowed to talk in class. I cannot go 2 mins without breaking this rule…
4. When I am nervous I chew the skin around the nail on my thumbs and can’t stop even when I am hurting myself.
5. The fear of my mother’s over-reaction has prevented me from ever getting my nose pierced even though I really want to and I am now 34 with three children, a husband, my own house, a university degree and the means and where-with-all to go do it. Argh! When does the laso loosen up????
This was fun. I don’t know if I could get to 50 never mind 100. But I would give it a red hot go!

What is scary about this is that there were SO MANY times while I read your 100 things that I was like “hey, that is me!” Awww…..
for instance.
-My fav. number is 11. It was always my number in every sport I played.
-Seth and I share the love of photography. (our first date…another aww)
-I’m a horrible speller too
-I would be so computer illiterate without Seth.
-Seth and Ryan are sooooo alike….(does it surprise me we picked such good men!)
-I use to love my flat stomach (pre-baby)
-I have a j-lo booty
And I could go on
BUT
here are 5 things about me that you might not know
1) I don’t wear deodorant (you may think I’m gross, but I just don’t ever smell…at least no one has told me if I do) 2) I love meeting new people
3) I was born with a total of 3 thumbs (got the extra one cut off when I was two and I still have thumb nail problems b/c of it)
4) I lived in Japan for 3 years
5) I had doubts I was adopted till I as about 7 years old. My sister would always tell me I was and I believe it since my parents didn’t get pictures of my birth (their camera batteries died b/c I was 3 weeks late and they packed the hospital bag too early), I didn’t look like my family for the longest time since I use to have blond hair, have blue eyes (the rest have brown) and curls (they have straight hair). But you can’t deny I am adopted now since I have grown to look like my sisters and I have my mother’s thighs.

I love how genuine you come across, makes me wish you were my neighbor!

1. For me, Laughter really is the best medicine
2. I hate being hot, it makes me cranky.
3. I give people too many chances.
4. I cry way too easily, I’m working on that.
5. I still regret a decision I was strong-armed into making in 2003, and pray it’s true that God forgives.
6. I do believe I will meet “The One”, when it’s time.

Amen to the breastfeeding sister! So, glad I’m not the only one who bf but only because I believe it’s the best thing for my kid.

1. I really hate my white kitchen sink, no matter how much bon ami with bleach I use, it still looks stained.
2. I do love my shiny new kitchen faucet that actually gives me water pressure!
3. I love baking more than cooking
4. We finally got the box that allows us to watch digital tv so now we finally get PBS!
5. My new favorite show is history detectives on PBS.

I love this post! I think I could come up with 100 things but it would probably bore my readers to death. So here are 5…

1. I hate seafood. I’ve tried numerous times and still - hate!
2. I used to love Jonathan Brandis and would collect every teen magazine just to put his pictures on my walls.
3. My first and only cliffdiving experience was in the Delaware River and it took me 30 minutes to jump.
4. I hate ants and gnats worse than bees and spiders
5. Patrick Dempsey doesn’t know it yet but he loves me

Great post…Lets see what 5 I can come up with!

1. I have been with my husband for 9 years and I love him more today than I did when I first fell in love with him.

2. I have a job, which I hate. I would give almost anything to just stay home with tmy babies again.

3. I have two little girls. One looks identical to my husband and one looks like me. It completely amazes me.

4. I am currently 13 weeks pregnant with my 3rd and final little miracle and both me and my husband want another little girl.

5. I absolutely HATE to do any kind of cleaning, and honestly I don’t do it very often if I can get away with it.

Kelly you rock. I love your blog and never ever miss a post even though I don’t always comment. Please keep it up, you keep me sane!
