What's your favorite thing about your H
I'm in a good mood today and M's been extremely nice to me lately.
What's your favorite thing about your H?
*M will do anything for me. I appreciate that he's always willing to help me. Simple things like putting the car in the garage to great things like driving my parents to the airport at 5 am. I know I can always count on him.

They're too pitiful to be photographed. I misplaced my iron in the move so I bought a new one plus an ironing board. I already bought the hem tape to shorten my old kitchen curtains. I watched a video tutorial several times -- they (Young House Love) even had the same brand hem tape. But alas, theirs had a paper backing and mine did not. So i ruined my iron with sticky adhesive. Then I finally got them hemmed and scraped the glue off the iron only to hang them and realize they're too short and most likely not even to each other.

Oh bummer. Sometimes I think sewing tutorials are made harder than need be. All you need is an iron, startch, and a measure board thingy.
I'm still new at sewing but am working my way through bigger projects. Right now we're making baby bedding for my SIL's nursery.
Mames - that sucks about the curtains!
Best thing about my H... He believes in me no matter what. Whenever I doubt my self/abilities, he tells me I can do it. He is incredibly supportive. I wish I could listen to him more.

I love how kind he is. To everyone, all the time. Seriously, I'm no peach, but Alex is the sweetest and most modest person I have ever met. People either love me or hate me, but I've never met anyone who doesn't love and respect Alex-- ever. His kindness is so genuine, which is really refreshing. I don't know where he came from considering all the crazy in his family...
ugh. the luckiest.

And if any of you girls ever tell him I said this, I'll have your heads!
I survived the RoLex wedding and all I got was this lousy husband.
One&Only Palmilla - Los Cabos, Mexico
He lets me be myself. I've never had to act differently or pretend I'm someone else around him. And we have the same sense of humor so we're always laughing and having a good time
He's also pretty tall so he has this amazing spot on his chest that I can rest my head in
He lets me be in charge! I'm a total control freak and I have this insane need to manage everything. He pretty much just hands over the reigns, lets me make almost all decisions (including monetary ones), compliments me on doing a great job, and enjoys the ride.
Plus, he's hysterical. Seriously. You've never met anyone as funny as him, or that can get away with the stuff he says.
Oh, and his bod is ridiculous. That doesn't hurt.
hmmm, there are so many.
1) He is honest with me and calls my BS and doesn't let me get away with what I'm used to getting away with.
2) He's thoughtful.
3) He's fabulous in the kitchen.
4) He's reasonable.
5) He's generous beyond belief.
5) He is not afraid to kick someone's teeth down their throat if need be. He is the ultimate protector and that is freaking sexy.
H3ll yes it is!

My Bio (wedding pics added 7/6)
My 101
My favorite thing lately has been his desire to take care of me and help out with things around the house that I would normally do but can't anymore (because I'm basically a beached whale these days). He knows how much it means to me to cross things off my to-do list, so he does these things even though I know he thinks some things are completely unnecessary.
I also love how much he is looking forward to being a Dad, his musical talent and how just listening to him play guitar and sing songs that he's written about me or our son makes me feel like I'm in heaven.
He makes me a better version of me. He calls me out on my sh*t and won't let me settle for something he knows I would be unhappy with. He pushes me to pursue my dreams and passions and supports me through it all.
Amen!
He tolerates me. My crazy emotional side, my goofy side, my crude side, anything - he just rolls with it. No matter how much of an unreasonable spoiled brat I am being, he lets me have my moment, get it out of my system, and welcomes me back to Earth with open arms.
And he would kill if he knew I shared this but I was never more in love with him than the moment he cried the other day when he had to put Amelia back in her isolette. He had been holding her skin on skin and she cried because she was warm and comfortable. He broke down and started saying "She wants to stay with Daddy! She wants her Daddy!" Yes honey, she's a daddy's girl.

He is an amazing dad. He is going 100mph trying to take care of "his girls" and literally started jumping up and down when I was released from the hospital on Sat. because one of "his girls" was coming home. He also told me that while I was in he was sleeping with my blanket because it had my smell. With sweet moments like this, is it any wonder why I tear up at a moments notice?!
ME TOO. Lord that's precious!
Let's see....my favorite thing about my H is probably how different we are. He always provides me with a perspective I NEVER would have thought of otherwise, he is so encouraging to me, and we both need each other's point of view to get through life.
PS. My least favorite thing about my H is also how different we are
