25 Things about me (and you!)
So there’s a huge tag-fest going on at Facebook, but I decided to answer it here. If you share at least one similarity with me here, consider yourself tagged! Write down 25 things about yourself in your blog and tag a couple other people. 
1. I wouldn’t mind being neighbors with Sheldon (of The Big Bang Theory) — he can come over and organize our messy apartment for me!
2. Fencing was the only sport I was good at. I took it for P.E. in college, aced the class, and wanted to join the Fencing league. School work was a priority though so that didn’t happen. It’s one of my frustrations. Maybe I’ll take it up again — in another lifetime!
3. I love my dentist, my hair stylist and my OB. These three make me feel most comfortable and they rate an A on awesomeness, so I’ve pledged my loyalty to them.
4. Speaking of awesome, Barney of “How I Met Your Mother” always cracks me up. Neil Patrick Harris is fantastic.
5. I was so tired yesterday I fell asleep while saying prayers in the chapel. Heehee.
6. I didn’t realize until now how difficult it is to name a child. “Timmy” is our baby’s nickname, but for his/her full name, H and I continue to have a healthy debate.
7. I think my Mom was supposed to name me Genevieve, but the “i before e” or “e before i” thing might have confused me, she thought. So Toni it was.
8. I don’t like long meetings. If something can be resolved briefly and productively, meetings don’t have to drag on. That’s why kicking it off with an agenda is a must.
9. I love frozen yogurt.
10. I’m a HUGE Top Chef fan. I’ve followed all five seasons closely. This season I’m rooting for Stefan. I think he’s the most talented of the lot, nevermind his cockiness. I’d love to be friends with Carla though!
11. I just saw in Facebook that my sisters and cousin got matching jackets. I’m so jealous and feel left out. Rawr. Pregnancy hormones sure magnify even the littlest emotion.
12. I just realized I’ll have a two-month old baby when the movie “New Moon” comes out! How cool!
13. No, I’m not naming my baby after Jacob Black. Though that did cross my mind.
14. Despite the nausea, I haven’t thrown up one bit over the course of my pregnancy. I consider that a huge relief!
15. I haven’t been craving for anything lately, although I did notice I am enjoying watermelon shakes more than usual.
16. And I really enjoyed my avocado bowl last night — mashed avocado with milk and sugar. Mmmmm.
17. One of the happiest moments ever is when my husband opens his arms and says, “I want to hug my babies.”
18. Right now, I’d rather be home taking a nap than doing aaaanything else.
19. I had my hair cut just below my ears a month ago. I haven’t had short hair in more than 5 years!
20. I’m not a fan of shopping for clothes. I’d rather someone buy them for me.
21. Small talk makes me uncomfortable.
22. The last good book I read was “The Fiction Class” by Susan Breen. Recommended by my sister, and I recommend it too!
23. When I’m stressed out, I listen to the theme from “Cinema Paradiso” — instant calm!
24. I’m a romantic.
25. I love being pregnant.
Your turn!

you’re so lucky you haven’t had the notion to throw up. nausea and throwing up were part of my day to day activities during my first trimester and i only craved for anything with lettuce causing me to lose a lot of weight. you should look forward to your second to third trimester, it’s the best part of being pregnant.
i also missed my big tummy. i loved it so much i tend to wear hanging blouses just to show it off. and i missed how my hubby would sleep holding my tummy. i got so used to the touch that it felt so different now that there’s no bulging tummy under his touch. it seems that somehow, something is missing. lol!

Argh. Definitely not in common with #25. And yes – what’s with all these 25 Things Tag? I must’ve been tagged about 25 times already. But, admittedly, I haven’t done it yet. Heh.
Congrats again on the pregnancy. And guess what’s today’s KeyCode here for me? baby.

Don’t you just want to hug Sheldon and tell him, everything is okay… but I think he’d end up spraying disinfectant on you first before hugging.
Happy day preggy mommy!
Stop getting the rest of us all broody.

#11. Pregnancy hormones talaga! Achuchu! Ask daddy for your jacket! I wasn’t just saying it. We just bought ours at Surplus Shop and every SM has that store. Pero I’m sure you’re just like Jennie—too shy to ask daddy, so I asked for a jacket for you na rin. He said yes, of course. Let me know if you’re S (me), M (jennie), or L (max). Ako na bibili when mama and I go to SM this week or the next.

Hmm….i did like no. 25 only because i was so spoilt…by everyone…unfortunately, no MrG then but that’s all right…he’s making up for it now….(i meant the spoiling…not trying to get me pregnant! LOL….hmmm, i’ve confused myself here now!)
I’m really happy about your pregnancy and can’t wait to see the bubba!
Hugs!

Ditto on # 25!
But I envy you because you’re not experiencing vomiting. Can you believe I still haven’t gained a single lb and I’m almost 5 months pregnant! And it’s not for lack of trying ha! I’ve been stuffing my mouth with anything and everything in sight!
Stay healthy Toni and Timmy!

I decided I was going to spend the time and write 25 Things About Me for my FB, too. So I thought and wrote and put it down and got back to it and finally finished it. Then, in one quick click, I proceeded to delete it instead of publish it… @^#*%&$!!!!! Perhaps I’ll try again when I stop steaming.
