1. Physical quirks- Don’t worry nothing to personal! I have special ears. They are different from each other. One is my elf ear (I don’t remember which one) it is pointed at the top. Also the top is usually red. I used to tease my mom that it was from burning the tip all the time when I was little with the curling iron. But honestly I don’t know why. My other one is my toes. I love my toes, and I think everyone else’s feet look weird! My 2nd toe is longer than my first (not too different) and it is crooked (my quirk). It curves toward the 3rd toe. –And this time they are the same, both feet do that. I get my toes from my Grammy (my mom’s mom) and I love them!
Here’s what my toes look like. I was going to do one of my ear, but I thought that was a little too much!
2. I’m a big scaredy cat! Logan is my 3rd newborn, and I’m still TERRIFIED to give him a bath. I HATE bathtime. Just thinking about giving Logan a bath makes me nervous, I can bearley breathe. Take a little tiny baby, soaking wet, add soap- What are you kidding me. Yikes. I’m also afraid of new dentists. I have a horrible tooth ache I’ve been ignoring because I don’t want to go to a new dentist. (A must because my old dentist lives in Texas!) Anyone want to call the dentist, set up an appointment for me, get a sitter for my kids, drive me there, and hold my hand while he or she checks my teeth? As I get older my fears get worse. I’m afraid of heights, but I didn’t think very much. The other day we were at the park and Kaitlyn wanted me to go down the slide with her. Ok, sure, no problem. Well I got up there and I didn’t want to go down the slide, it looked too scary (I know pretty pathetic!). Well I did go down and it wasn’t so bad, but I didn’t offer to go again. Lol. I’m sure there’s more, but you get the idea.
3. I’m a little OCD (obsessive compulsive). I need things done certain ways. Like loading the dishwasher. I can’t watch when Ryan does it, or I’ll go fix it. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it when he does the dishes, so I just have to not look. When I put the dishes up they have to be a certain way. The measuring cups have to be stacked the measuring spoons need to be put on the ring and lined up by size. I used to be worse (I’ve been working on it), I used to fold my dirty clothes before putting them in the laundry (however it’s fine for clean clothes to sit and wait to be folded- I know, it makes NO sense!) and I had to fold my trash at restaurants and make it really small before throwing it away- But I have been cured of both! Yea. Also I hate to rip wrapping paper. My husband goes crazy with this at Chistmas time!
4. I have a hard time with left and right. I know which is which until you ask me. Then I have no clue! In the car when giving directions I say turn towards you (the drivers side of the car) or turn towards me (the passenger side of the car)
5. Here’s Ryan’s contribution to the list. (I don’t really think this is weird) When I sleep I make a popping sound when I breathe. It’s not very loud, but it drives Ryan crazy. When we first got married he wore ear plugs because it bothered him so much. At least I don’t snore really loudly or something, he’d never get to sleep! Julia (my little sis) also mentioned this when we were littler and shared a room.
6. I have my own words for a lot of things, or I’ll use words backwards. Ex. Clock and watch I use the opposite ways and itch and scratch. I also pick up on other peoples accents a little when I talk to them often. I already have a little bit of a Wisconsin accent on some of my words. I don’t do it on purpose, it just comes out that way. Also if I notice someone uses a word often- like here in Wisconsin they say yet A LOT more than normal- I start to do it too, even if it was something that I thought was stupid or annoying. Again not on purpose.
Well I’m sure there’s tons more, but there’s the 6 the tag asks for. I had fun doing it and I love reading these. Anyone is welcome to do it but I’ll tag Julia, Katrina, and Mindy- my sisters. Do it if you want, don’t if you don’t.

Christi you quirks are so mild and cute! You know that a longer second toe is a sign of intelligence...that's what my mom used to say growing up because she had one...not me ...sad! You know you did have a Wisconsin accent last time I talked to you...I don't know if I have told you that already!I am the same way though. You know I snore...sad...Kyle prefers falling asleep before I do so he can sleep with out hearing me snore. Thanks for doing the tag!!
