BUZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Tray has only had a professional haircut twice. I usually just get the clippers out and away we go. I use a bigger attachment on top and do the sides and bottom short. Well.... last night things didn't go so great. He was so wiggly that after I did the top and was working on the bottom... there were a few oops! So I ended up having to buzz the whole thing. I did actually use an attachment but his hair is so blond that he looks bald. Travis and I just laugh whenever we see him. We have a couple of names for him to. Powder...Chemo..... TJ (Travis Junior-Travis is balding)...(None of these names are meant to be offensive, so please don't take any from them) It wouldn't be so bad if his hair was a little darker and he had eyebrows but he totally looks like I used a razor to cut his hair! Good thing his hair grows so fast. From now on we will be visiting the salon for our haircuts!

I am bored

I'm bored and I should go to bed but I am somehow glued to my computer screen. I have nothing really exciting to post but felt that my blog needed an update. I've been seeing the 7 things about me posts and although I haven't been "tagged" I thought I would share anyways.

1. I am addicted to blogspot. I spend hours just looking at other people's blogs. I start on my page and click on one of my favorites and then go from there. I mostly read about people that I know, but I'm sure they don't know me. I also read about people I don't know, those one's don't interest me as much though. But it's just so exciting to read about everyone's families and what they are doing.

2. I use a shower cap. I feel like I'm from the sixties or something, but I hate washing my hair. (This may be gross to you) I only wash my hair twice a week. And the past year I have been leaning towards showers instead of baths. So when we went on vacation and there was a shower cap in our room I took it home and used it until the elastic broke. I then went and purchased my own quality cap. I love it! I love not waiting for the water to fill up... and I love not having to blow dry my hair and have a bad hair day everyday!!

3. I am addicted to candy. I know a lot of people are but my obsession goes as far as to hide it from Travis so I can have it all to myself. In fact I just finished savoring a HUGE (1/2 pound) bar of chocolate that I hid in the freezer and enjoyed over the course of 2 weeks. I know it sounds petty to hide it from Travis but it's more fun to eat it that way because it feels like it's forbidden! I have stashes all over the house and in the car.

4. I have to have the bed made! Even if we are about to go to sleep and the bed didn't get made that day.. I will make it. I hate when the covers are all tangled and I can't find the edge of the sheets. It just makes me so frustrated. I've even woke up in the middle of the night to fix the sheets because I couldn't sleep.

5. Christmas is not my favorite holiday. Don't get me wrong it's at the top.. but I don't know if it's because of my birthday being so close to Christmas or what.. but Halloween tops my list. I love being able to dress up and be something else for a day. Don't worry I still listen to Christmas music as soon as it's on the radio.

6. I am a hoarder. I just watched Oprah today on hoarding and I thought to myself.. I could totally see myself in that situation. I try to have a clean out day twice a year and being pregnant helps alot when I am in the nesting mode. But I have saved things like class notes from 8th grade to 12th grade, magazines for years, every note that a friend has written me, young women's handouts, stupid things that I thought I would like to look back at, but haven't once. I did purge most of them, but it takes me hours to do a clean out because I have to read every single piece of paper that I pick up.

7. I hate talking on the phone. I remember being in elementary school and I wanted to call my bestfriend and I just couldn't bring myself to pick up the phone to call her. I was terrified. I am still that way. It takes a lot for me to call people. If someone leaves a message and wants me to call them back.... unless I am totally comfortable with that person.... I won't call them back. I don't know why this is. Even at work, my boss will ask me to call someone about something and I wait until the very last second to do it because I just have this huge anxiety about it. The funny thing about it is that I was a telemarketer. Go figure.

Well I hope you enjoyed my 7 things. I will go ahead and tag some people. Jayme, Megan, Mandi Wight, & Kalli-

Have a great day!!! (Or night)

Happy Haunting!! (And other pictures)

We had a fun Halloween weekend. Saturday I made Trav take us to Logan to the pumpkin walk. Little did we know that it was no more. So we made our way to a corn maze that was pretty kid friendly. It had a petting zoo and a straw maze for kids to jump into a pile of hay and crawl through tunnels. The actual corn maze wasn't too bad either. We had a cheat sheet that really helped.

Halloween was pretty fun too. Once Tray understood the concept of getting candy he enjoyed it way too much. He even enjoyed handing out candy to the other trick-or-treaters. It was cute!
