Trending Thoughts, Fads, and Pet Peeves

Inspired by Eric Lundy's likes and dislikes, here are some of my personal fads and pet peeves in my life right now:

Fads

Baby swaddlers---They are like magic in putting babies to sleep
Mac and Cheese--I had burned out on this food for a decade, but it is making a comeback
Fantasy Football--My first year. I did not think my interest in football could be elevated. It has been.
Bright neon green--my new favorite color. Seahawks green. Karis green.
Fall--got to enjoy all three weeks of it we have here in Fowler
Reebok--I like the way the Reebok shirts i have fit and feel
Twitter--slowly figuring it out....still like facebook better
Abingdon Books Fiction--my fave publisher of Christian fiction so far
Sunday night football--Its the new Monday night football
Oregon Ducks/Lee Corso commerical--so funny
Baby Clothes shopping--who knew looking at onesies could be so fun?
Naps--taken two naps for over an hour in the last two days
Biscuits and Gravy--love it!
Jack's Big Music show & Backyardigans--the best of Nickjr. television
Mountain West Conference in football--the most underrated conference in college football
Pac 10 and Big 10 conference expansion--looking forward to going to Boulder for a Ducks game, and watching Nebraska play in the same conference as Michigan and Ohio State.

Pet Peeves
Huggies diapers--occasionally leaky with poor odor control
Ohio St. Buckeyes--always overrated in the most overrated conference in football
My Mountain Dew addiction--can't seem to shake it
baby button up sleeper pajamas--too many buttons to do and undo to check and clean diaper
sponanaeity--the longer I am a parent of an infant, the more I like structure and plans

It's not the diaper it's the operator. If you change the diaper quickly odor isn't an issue.

Enjoyed the list - and you are right how the structure part does change. Then they become teenagers and you go through a spin trying to regroup...

I never cared for Huggies with my two. They leaked right away.
