I wouldn't want to know -- especially if I couldn't change it. Plus, what is life without a little surprise?

OK-- here is a funny/gross one I heard during a "Would You Rather" game...

Would you rather lick the armpit of a person who doesn't shower regularly or chew off his toenail?

EWE!!! That's NASTY!!! But if I HAD to choose between the two I'd say chew off the toe nail (and spit it out then immediately go and disinfect my mouth!! Lol) THERE is NO WAY I'd go anywhere near a dirty armpit...YUCK YUCK YUCK!!!

How many HPT do you have in your house at the moment?

I think I have about 9. They are the cheap internet ones though, and I always convince myself they must be wrong. Then I end up at the drugstore buying expensive ones anyways....

What is your favorite childhood memory?

Going to the beach with my father. I love to remember good times with him, he passed away when I was 17.

If you could change 1 thing about DH, what would it be?

My ex-BIL who happens to be a very good friend. He's pretty hilarious. His brother is pretty funny too (my ex-husband, lol).

How has dealing with IF changed you?

It's made me more sensitive. I think I was sensitive before, but I really watch what I say so much more than I did in the past (to keep others from going home and crying like I have so many times).

What one quality would you most like your child's teacher to have?

Sorry didn't see the question above

Most embarrassing thing that happened to me was when two boys teased me about my breasts on the bus in highschool.

What is the nicest thing someone has ever done for you?

The nicest thing anyone has done for me is just continuing to love and support me no matter what. Nothing makes me feel better then that. No gifts can compare to the joy that I feel when I know those that I love are there to support me and cheer me on.


Favorite New Year's Eve memory?

My proposal on New Year's day, just after midnight. I wasn't expecting it because DH and I had been fighting for the week leading up to it because I would have my brother with me for the party. He's 6 years younger then I am and back then we didn't get along the best. DH didn't want me to be in a bad mood for the night because he knew what he had planned. Everything was perfect though. That was the best surprise someone has given me. The best surprise of my life was both these pregnancies this year, natural after so many years and so many failures.

Who was your biggest inspiration growing up?
