Tag! You're it!

Okay, I have been tagged and namely called out (thanks Maggie) so I guess I have to respond. That is what you get for stalking a new blog (btw, she is very funny). I am also fairly new to the blog thing and am still trying to figure things out. I don't know how to list my favorite sites or blogs I read or even post an album of my scrapbook or crafty things but I do know how to post.

So, I am answering the call of five interesting little known facts about me...here it goes...

Five (somewhat) Interesting Little-Known Facts about Cathy:

1. I have an un-natural obsession with ribbon (okay, that is not so little known). I seem to have to include it in every hand made card, invitation, Christmas card or announcement. It just doesn't look right to me without ribbon.

2. I have been called a good cook but can not cook without a recipe. I think this comes from my OCD analysis paralysis personality trait. (also not so little known).

3. There was a time when I wanted to be a forensic pathologist. Therefore I am very happy with all of the CSI shows on TV.

4. I still dream of becoming a professional soccer player.

5. One of my favorite jobs was as a teenager taking orders for Round Table Pizza. You would not believe the stuff that goes on in a call center for taking pizza orders.

I know, not so interesting but at least I did it. Okay, do I have any takers to list five interesting little-known things about themselves in their blogs (Dusti, Annie, Donna???) I think at least five people read my blog. So now you're it! Thanks for playing.

Project 365 - Day 30

He can do it! I was driving the kids around running errands and I hear a familiar and distinctive noise. Noah pulled on his little bug car seat friend. There is no mistaking that jiggle noise of the bug crawling back up into position with the little rattle that is inside his tummy. Just another milestone for my baby. I have a particular fondness for this little bug from Nathan and Laura so I know I am overly sentimental about these things but it was really cute to actually see him do it.

Project 365 - Day 29

It really does scare me, how much Nathan is like me sometimes. He wanted to color and work in his workbooks before school and so I got everything out for him. He soon proudly announces 'Look mom, I'm all organized." He had everything in place all set up for himself and he was just sooo happy. I remember doing the same exact thing when I was little - okay I think I still do this when I am scrapping or working on a craft project come to think of it. He just likes things the way he likes them, oh my son, how I can relate and how I love your little OCD mind!

Project 365 - Day 28

I think the thing I hate most about having kids is the ENORMOUS amounts of laundry they produce. I honestly can't believe how much of my time is devoted to this obscene task (along with the dreaded dishes). I think this was like 7 loads done with 5 more waiting for me. I just can't believe it, so I had to take a picture of me still folding at 11:30 at night.

Project 365 - Day 27

While I was busy trying to get ahead of the laundry and cleaning of the house on top of tackling another craft/invitation project my mom came over to keep the kids busy. I tried to think of something fun for Laura to do and whipped out the cake mix and frosting. She has so much fun cooking. I think a cute new ruffley apron is in her future.

Project 365 - Day 26

This was a kick in the pants day - Chinese New Year. Nathan had so much fun at kindergarten, they did all kinds of fun things. He brought home this lovely mask, that Laura had to play with, but his favorite was the little hat. We spent the rest of the day trying to figure out which year all of our loved ones were born in.

Project 365 - Day 25

Such a sweet little baby. I can't believe how fast he is growing. He fell asleep in Daddy's arms and I just couldn't resist the shot. I got a really good close up of their hands too. No doubt that will inevitably become a scrapbook page.
