My friend Ashley did this on her blog and I thought it was so fun to read. So...not sure if I am as interesting as her, but I am bored so I am going to do this!
1. I have always hoped I have chubby babies. I love to squeeze them. Andrew definitely fulfilled those hopes for me!
2. I am completely addicted to Thai food. I could eat it everyday.
3. I love to sleep! Maybe this is because I don't get as much as I used to...but every minute is precious these days!
4. I think I have turned into a bit of a homebody. I like to get out and do things, but I REALLY love days when I am just home with nowhere to go.
5. I have issues with second guessing myself. Especially on decorating, or choosing an outfit. I seem to always need another opinion to confirm that it really does look good and I'm not just an idiot!
6. I never liked to read growing up because I was always forced to read something for school, but now I am really enjoying reading. Currently I am reading A Thousand Splendid Suns. Love it so far.
7. I unfortunately have a bit of a temper. Good thing I married Zach and he helps me to learn to COOL IT.
8. I loved my mission in the Czech Republic and think about it almost everyday. I dream about it a lot too. I wish I could do it again!
9. I LOVE to cook and try lots of new recipes. I have a slight addiction to buying cookbooks. Zach always thinks it's funny because I've probably made two recipes out of each book, so he is a little confused why I keep buying more.
10. I am not a pet person. We had a cat growing up, and I do love her, but I REALLY hope my kids never beg me for one. If they do, they are getting a fish.
11. I want to go back to school someday. I am not even sure what for, but after graduating I have realized how much I do really love to learn and miss it sometimes.
12. I have always had this weird obsession with starting my own business. I am always thinking of some silly idea to do, even though I really have NO time for it. I think it all started with my business in 6th grade...."the Babysitter Team"....not to be confused with the Babysitter Club. We dominated our neighborhood:)
13. I love cheese. All kinds of cheese. I love to try new ones too. Not good for you, but SO YUMMY.
14. I love to ski. I'm not a pro by any means, but there is something about it to me that is so liberating. I wish I could go more often.
15. Unfortunately I am not a super affectionate person. Again....good thing I married Zach. He has taught me to be much more affectionate and loving.
16. I love to sing. I sing EVERYTIME I am in the car. But you will probably never hear me sing because I have issues with doing it in front of people.
17. I love way too many tv shows. After a day of running around with Andrew, I love to plop myself on the couch and watch mindless shows. I know it is lame, but I NEED it sometimes!
18. I love my husband's job. Some people think we are crazy that we are in this job that requires so much travel and time, but for some reason I feel a part of it and I think it is fun (most of the time!). I think I will be sad when the day comes that he is done.....if that ever happens!
19. I think I am an all seasons kind of person. While I love the beach and hot sun, I also really love being in the mountains with snow in a cabin.
20. I want to travel Europe. I never left the Czech Republic both times I have been there. Someday I hope to go there with Zach.
21. I love mangos. I never get sick of them. I am craving one right now!
22. I have had a job every year of my life since I was 16 until I had Andrew. I like to work. My past jobs included: waitress, cashier at a grocery store (so ghetto), working at a takeout counter at a restaurant, assistant and receptionist of a hair salon, research assistant, secretary, tanning salon ( i know, i know), hostess at sundance, mtc teacher, and an office assistant.
23. I think my parents have THE LIFE and I hope we end up like them one day!
24. I am a bit of a control freak. I hated group projects in school. I would much rather do everything myself.
25. I love to give presents. I don't think I am very good at picking them out sometimes, but I love to have a reason to buy one.
26. I love fruit snacks, but only a specific kind. Sunbelt Fruit Jammers...they are the best. I seriously could eat a whole box in one sitting.
27. I think I secretly love to be wined and dined if you know what I mean. I love going to fancy restaurants and eating expensive food. I know that is shallow, but it's fun sometimes!
28. I am sad how fast Andrew is growing up. I love this stage and wish he could stay like this forever.
29. I am severely competitive at games, sports, etc. I love to win, not sure why, but I do.
30. I love girl time. I always had a lot of girl friends growing up, and in college, and sometimes it is just so fun to hang out with a group of girls!
31. I want to be crafty. I really enjoy that kind of stuff. It's just hard to find time right now!
32. I have a pet peeve with people being late or unreliable. Not saying I am perfect AT ALL, but it just bugs me sometimes!
33. I wish my hair could look like Jennifer Aniston's.
34. I like busy work. I know...so weird. I love to pay bills, go through mail, and organize things.
35. I genuinely like living in Utah. I know a lot of people here, who aren't originally from here, wish they could live back east or something, but I've been there, done that, and I love Utah!
36. I think Tatianna on American Idol is freaking CRAZY. I almost wish she was still on just so I could watch how weird she is.
37. I always secretly wanted to be in the CIA or something. I love Jack Bauer.
38. I hope that I have five kids. If they could all be like Andrew I would have 20. Just kidding. But he is so great. I love being a mom.
39. I think I hold onto things from the past too much. I am a very nostalgic person. I don't really love change too much, but I can handle it when it happens.
40. I have loved rap music my whole life. Everytime someone finds that out they are shocked. I really don't listen to it much anymore, but for some reason growing up I knew the words to like every rap song and pretty much thought I was a rapper. I know, not the best music to listen to, but those beats just make me HAPPY!
Well.....hopefully that didn't bore you to death. You should do it too so I can read random things about you! I tag you all!

This was fun to read. We are so much alike. I remember the first time I went over to your house in high school your dad thought I was your twin. I miss you! Maybe some time we'll be in Utah (doesn't happen very often) and we can meet up.
i knew all of these things.
Ok so i guess i should have known these things but i find it odd that after all these years i think that 35 out of 40 are the same for me!!!! i cherish the fact that we have reconnected after all of these years! oh and for #40~ Puffy hold me down baby!
so not bored! a few comments:
1. #32. i am your pet peeve. haha!
2. love the thai food...steve and i are still looking for a good place here in dc! any recs?
3. possible a blog assignment from #9: i love to cook too, but i don't like searching for recipes and then trying them and then them not being good! please share some favorite mommy recipes!
4. #40. haha. that is so how i think of you when i think of meeting you freshman year...dirrrtay south.
You are going to be happy you wrote all that down one day!
We have a lot in common!
Keep up the posting! I love seeing pictures of that cute little guy.
Ok... Katie that was CRAZY!! There were SO many of those things that I was reading & I was like "Umm... I think she's talking about ME!" HaHa! We are much more alike than I even thought! HaHa! Love ya!
Ha, that was great! You are way more interesting than me. I agree with people being late and unreliable...drives me nuts!!!
Oh I just love ya! Let's see I have a lot of the same things on your list--control freak, love to eat at fancy restaurants, not a pet person, loved rap (and still listen to it sometimes), and my sister and I even started a Babysitters Club and babysitters camp (and we also dominated our neighborhood). We want to travel to Europe SO bad. It is on our "to-do" list before having kids. We are planning a trip in September. I was going to invite you but I forgot one little detail...you will be a little bit detained in September! Anyway we need to play again soon!
Whatever! Not boring at all! HA HA-why is that plant picture (the one you killed) so funny to me??! I laughed out loud! And your mom is so cute!-she really is so pretty! What a cute fam.

We are really so much alike. I was like, "me too, me too!" through the whole thing! Most notably, I want to do my mission again too! I miss it! And I was entranced by Tatiana. SHE IS A NUTCASE. Seriously beyond strange. And of course you know that the rap also bring joy to my life! Love you!
Aaah, I miss black Katie! I do remember that I was always so impressed that you knew all the lyrics to every rap song- and could keep the flow. I was so secretly jealous of your cool talent...
