Flashback Wednesday

Here are some fun flashbacks for you:

That's me, probably 4 years old, I would guess.  I look like I am typing something mildly funny like my favorite joke.  No, I'm pretty sure I was just pushing the keys until it would "ding" and return.  Then guess what?  I would do it all over again.  There probably wasn't even a ribbon in it. 

Here's me, at six months or so.  From what I've heard, I may have been the only child of all six of us to go on a trip with my parents alone.  Not a vacation, really, our trips were more utilitarian usually...remind me to tell you the story about the cross-country trip we took WITH a goat.

If you look closely you can see that the hair on one side of my head is longer than the other.  Well I was a thumb-sucker.  What?  That doesn't answer why I am missing hair?  See I would suck my left thumb and twist my hair with my right hand, so tightly that my mom would have to cut my hair to free my fingers.

I love this picture, I should make it my profile picture on Facebook. I remember that I did have a Strawberry-Shortcake doll when I was little..it smelled good.  Even now, I will sometimes catch that scent and remember my doll.  This picture was taken by one of my older siblings, I'm sure...they could get me to do almost anything.  

I don't know...I really loved "The Land Before Time" Who didn't?  But I would like to point out that those supper cool glasses were fake, and may have been missing one if not both lenses.

These glasses, sadly, were not fake.  I actually picked those out.  Also during this time I spent an awful lot of time speaking in really terrible and inaccurate foreign accents.

Somethings never change:  I still spend too much time at a keyboard and don't type a thing.  I twist my hair still, but I'm not having to cut my hair.  I still wear glasses that I will think are ugly in ten years.  And yes, still try to speak with foreign accents...badly and inaccurately.

I love the hair transformations. And yes, I REALLY want to hear about the trip with the goat.
