I was tagged by Jess. Thanks a lot. But I guess she did stand and talk to me the other night while I was changing possibly the World's Nastiest, Stinkiest Diaper. That, people, is friendship.
I have to list either 5 random things about myself or 5 places I'd like to visit or visit again or5 things I never thought I'd do before 25. Since I'm not that far removed from 25 (don't hate) and I could never narrow down what I want to see to just 5 things, I thought I'd give everyone what they want: more facts about me.
1. My last name before I got married was Brown and now it's White. That's right, I just changed colors. Aren't you jealous? I thought about going by Emily Brown-White for awhile. Or naming a child using my maiden name so his name could be Brown White. I hope Kendall marries someone with the last name Black or Green (actually any color,we're not judgmental... I just don't know that many Oranges or Yellows...but I do know some Blues).
2. I went to the doctor today for my six week check up. While I was laying there, I told him he needed to get something pretty to look at on the ceiling or put a TV up there (the ceiling, not my...well you know). His exact reply was that "All the dentists screwed me over by doing that." Ok, sorry. Forget I asked.
3. I've learned that there are many things you will face in life that take a great amount of courage. Taking two children under the age of two into a restaurant is one of them.
4. This morning, I was changing Kendall's diaper and getting her dressed when I noticed it was very quiet. I called out for Cason and he never came. Trouble. I found him pouring orange juice all over a table in the living room. When he saw me, he leaned over and tried to slurp it up from the table...like to hide it so I wouldn't know he did it. This doesn't bode well for the future for so many reasons.
5. I have horrible directional skills. I don't know if I'm facing north, south, east or west. One time Colin was trying to tell me to meet him on the south side of a building. When I asked which side that was, his reply was,"You know, the side Texas would be on." Uh, yes, I understand that Texas is south of Oklahoma but which side of the dang building is that? Geez, I'm not that dumb.

I'm good with directions but I can't remember highway numbers for my life. Nathan has to describe what highway I need to get on by the store or landmark that I associate it with.
I'm VERY familiar with the OCCC Highway, the White Water Highway, and the Frontier City Highway. I still tend to get lost on the Zoo Highway and the Bass Pro Highway though.
Orange juice on the table huh? Just wait until he discovers eggs and decides he wants to cook on the living room floor and breaks 11 of them all over and gets a few pillows in the process. The best part is when your favorite cleaner reacts with the eggs and sort of cooks them... into the floor. Thank goodness it's a wood floor.
Kendall Black.
My mission is to find her a husband with the last name black. Maybe she can marry Jack Black's son....he'd be a fun father-in-law.
Then she could be Kendall White-Black and shop at my new favorite store the White House/Black Market.
So many things we could do...
I'm SO with you on the direction thing! I have never known which way is which! In fact, I even still struggle with my left and right sometimes! Its bad news if I ever have to go anywhere new by myself...I usually just plan on getting lost!
AMEN to #3! 1 taking on 2 under the age of three = nervous breakdown.
I am with you on the direction thing. Although I am getting better with them. Didn't Collin know he was supposed to say, "Go to the side of the building near the Walmart(or other landmark of your choice)"...that always works!
The orange juice adventure had to be a great way to start the day. Thankfully Alli can't get the fridge door open on her own or else we would have stories like that. She loves getting the milk and apple juice out of the door.
