In honor of my birthday week, I thought I’d share 25 facts about me that you might not know. I always enjoy reading these types of posts. It’s a fun way to get to know someone better. So here we go!
- Ever since having kids, I need to sleep with a sound machine
- I’ve been keeping a one a day journal for 6 years
- I saw Adele in concert at San Diego State University in 2011. It is still one of the top 5 concerts I’ve been to
- I have a fibroid the size of a softball in my uterus
- This same fibroid grew to the size of a football during both my pregnancies
- I’ve lived in four homes in the last 5 years
- I do not like being cold
- I have a fear of crowded events
- I’ve worn the same necklace every day for almost 3 years (an initial necklace with Lawson and Sybil’s initials)
- The first time I ate edamame, I didn’t realize you weren’t supposed to eat the pod
- I have one tattoo and plan to add to my collection this year
- Ever since I had kids, I’m terrified of locking them in the car so I never leave my keys in the car even when getting them in and out of carseats
- As a child, I collected baseball and basketball cards
- I don’t like cats
- I take the same photo of the mountains on almost every run I’ve been on since moving to Colorado
- I’m allergic to certain fruits like apples and peaches unless they are organic
- I once fainted at a Mumford & Sons concert. No, I wasn’t drunk
- A cheeseburger and fries is my favorite meal
- And a perfect chocolate chip cookie is my go to treat
- I never planned on being a stay at home mom. For a long time, I didn’t even know if I wanted kids!
- My favorite country I’ve visited is Switzerland. The mountains are so beautiful and majestic
- My second favorite is Italy. Bring on all the wine, pasta and pizza
- I don’t drink coffee. I can’t stand the way it tastes or makes my mouth feel
- The beach is my happy place
- I’ve read 20 books so far this year
I might make this a semi-regular birthday week theme. This post from two years ago has more fun facts about me!
