Re: Hump day poll!!!

Favorite Christmas song? Santa Baby (the old one, not any of the new ones)
Something that DH does to make you CRAZY (and not in a good way) Uh - he's become obsessed with texting with his brothers lately - makes me NUTS!
Something that you absolutely love about DH - he is really an amazing father and I love to see him and Jenna play!
Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share. My mom wanted to name me Amanda, but didn't want me to be nicknamed "Handy Mandy" (seriously???) I always loved the name Elizabeth as a kid
One random thing about you - I think I've shared most of my random ones before - ummm, something new.... I used to have a crazy irrational fear of being poisoned - like when I was little, I was afraid if I touched something (like a cleaning chemical or something) that I would get sick from it. Random, but well...
What's you name? Lindsay
Are you TTC/PG/have a LO?? Have a 6m old, Jaxon...who started waving last week

Something that you absolutely love about DH He is so funny and thoughtful, and an amazing father! I was a little surprised how naturally it came to him...I love their father/son moments
Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share. Of course when I was little I wanted to be a Tiffany or Brittany, but they only had Lindsay picked out. I'm glad now that I don't have a tremendously popular name.
One random thing about you I love "corny" sayings, and use them almost daily, like "Let's make like a hippie and smoke this joint", or "Let's make like a shepard and get the flock out of here". Lol
Oh, and an irrational fear of mine is public restrooms...I'm afraid someone will follow me in there or is hiding in a stall just waiting to get me...or someone is going to reach over/under the stall wall. I know it sounds ridiculous but I can't help it. I only use them if I absolutely have to!
What's you name? Lydia

Favorite Christmas song? Angels we have heard on high

Something that you absolutely love about DH: He is wonderful with K and is an even better dad than I dreamed he would be. He puts his family #1 above all else.
Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share.

Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share. My dad was a fan of the name Jade.

Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share.

Favorite Christmas song? I have so many!!! But the main one is "In the bleak Midwinter" - it is sung by my audition chorus that I was in every holiday concert and the alum come up and sing w/them. They sang it at my dad's memorial service. I just love it.
Something that DH does to make you CRAZY (and not in a good way) he blows his nose after eating - SO weird. And he has this bad habit from his coworkers where if you say "you're silly" (or something to the like) he'll respond with "you're mom's silly" ugh. They did this when I first met him and they still do it and it drives me nuts.
Something that you absolutely love about DH always takes good care of me if I'm sick or if I'm uncomfy w/the pregnancy and just in general. He's pretty laid back and easy going.

Something that DH does to make you CRAZY (and not in a good way) He's really cheap and never wants to be extravagant (but he works in finance, so it's understanding). I'm not a big spender or anything but every once in while, I think you should indulge- just a little ;-)
Something that you absolutely love about DH the above comment goes both ways, though, because I have no worries about the future and know everything will always be taken care of b/c DH is such a good planner and puts our family first and foremost
Were your parents ever considering a different name for you, or, did you always have another name that you wish your parents would have named you? Share. This is HORRID, but b/c I was born on Christmas, my mother- the hippie- wanted to name me Crystal Noel. My father refused and said they might as well buy me a stripper pole. He picked out my name (named for both of my granmothers) and I am SOOOO grateful to him!! It's become a big joke in the family and kind of a theme about how my mom has 'unique' tastes
One random thing about you I gave up my career to be home with my little miracle and do not regret it one bit and do not miss it at all - and I really thought I would. I was always a workaholic!
I am with both of you on this! I have always used a divided plate, whether it's child-sized or not. If there wasn't one available, I would roll up napkins to separate my food. I'm not *quite* as bad as I used to be, but it still bothers me!
