Forks, cotton, and Jordan, OH MY!

There are certain things in life that can turn a person's stomach instantly. Sometimes people have those weird phobias or things that they just cannot tolerate. You know, fingernails on a chalkboard, fear of heights, etc. I had a friend who couldn't stand the sound of teeth on silverware. Needless to say, she rarely ate out, and at home, she used plastic ware, but the "classy" kind, she would always remind me.

I have my own quirks, like anyone. My biggest is my dislike for certain fabrics or materials. One being cotton balls. I can't stand the way they feel, especially when you have to pull them apart. I don't like wool in most clothing. Along the same lines- mittens. Cotton mittens, covered in snow. Every time I see it, I want to vomit. I am having a hard time writing about this, I am feeling a bit ill suddenly...

Dylan is even stranger. When Dylan is eating, he can't stand the sight of Jordan eating at the same time. Even if he is as clean as can be- not a speck of food on his face, he still can't stand it. I have seen Dylan eat a peanut butter sandwich, look over at Jordan eating, and throw everything back up.

I have actually had to buy a centerpiece for my kitchen table for Dylan. This way, when I am feeding Jordan, he can put the centerpiece between himself and Jordan. I don't know if it is only Jordan, or if any baby would have this effect with Dylan. I am not about to try it out though.

I am pretty sure that we are not the only ones in the world with a horrid dislike for something. I wonder, what does everyone else cringe to? Feel free to leave your weirdness in the comments...
