Things your DH has done lately . . .
1) To make you laugh:
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him:
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world:
(Just for fun and to get Monday rolling a bit.)
Re: Things your DH has done lately . . .
1) To make you laugh: He does all the time I can't really think of something in particular right now.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: In church yesterday he put his arm around my shoulders and smiled this sweet side smile and I couldn't help but smile.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: There are two things from yesterday. After church we went to his parents place and he decided to clean out the car. He spent probably an hour getting rid of garbage, vacuuming, and dusting it. AND...yesterday when he was out longboarding and I was walking along the boardwalk he was just so cute and handsome and I couldn't help but feel blessed.
P.S. fabulous idea!!!
1) To make you laugh: He gave me a five-minute speech on Saturday about his newfound love for guinea pigs. (ew.)
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: He KEEPS trying to put the strangest things in our recycling bin. If I have to tell him one more time that banana peels are not recycleable....
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: He drove nearly 8 hours in a 24-hr period on Friday (to work in CT, home, then back to work again) just to take me out to dinner on Friday night. He is a sweetheart.
1) To make you laugh: When he is driving and we are listening to the radio, he tends to make up his own words. Seriously the things he comes out with, I just can't help but laugh, even when I am upset about something.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: Whenever he randomly grabs my hand while driving in a car together. It doesn't happen often, but when it does, I know it is genuine. It honestly melts my heart every time.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: When he tells me he is the luckiest man in the world in front of a group of friends. He will tell friends that he has it made. That I take good care of our family, and that he appreciates me more than words can say.
1) To make you laugh: He comes home almost every day with a blow-by-blow replay of the things that happened on his latest Metro commute. It's hilarious b/c his use of hyperbole is awesome.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: His continued inability to wash the dishes properly. We've been living together for nearly four years and I still have to rewash some dishes. He's gotten better, but still . . .
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: He was a marvel during the whole new job decision process . He helped me sort through so much, but was blunt when I needed him to be blunt. It stressed him out like crazy, too, but he was there every step of the way. In general, though, I look over at him and just squee inside--mine, mine, mine!
my H does the same thing!

1) To make you laugh: This morning, B was getting ready for work, and he couldn't find the shirt he wanted to wear. Apparently, he then chose a backup shirt but couldn't find that one either. So he came in the other room and told me, "I can't find my first or second choice shirt." I went in the closet, and of course they were there, but I found it pretty funny that he had a backup choice.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: We were picking out tile over the weekend, and B decided that the grout in the entire bathroom should match, even though the tiles are different colors. I'm not sure he got this idea in his head, but he was so adamant about it, it was pretty cute. It took me a little while to convince him that in one of the bathrooms we would need to pick two different grout colors (one for the floor and one for the shower surround).
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: My birthday is coming up next weekend, and he sent the best evite out to my family and friends. It was extremely complimentary to me and very funny. He even admitted he will be the cause of all my future gray hairs.
1) To make you laugh: He's just so playful sometimes, play-wrestling and tickling and stuff.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: In Paris over the weekend, his repeated intentionally dirty mispronunciation of Balzac when we were looking at his statue and his grave.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: He's just been so supportive recently with my frustrations TTC
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
1) To make you laugh: The True Blood drinking game made me laugh pretty hard. He made me laugh this morning when we were getting dressed, but I don't remember what that was over.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: When he absentmindedly left the milk container on the counter after we'd just talked about him not doing that.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: When he looks at me like I'm the only person in the world.

2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: He likes to make comments that are just a bit too loud. Lately he's been playing the punch buggie game with much more gusto.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: He still looks at me like I'm the best thing that's ever happened to him. He likes to snuggle me at night, and insists on being right next to me, even when I need to spread out all over the couch, including all over his lap. It sorta makes me want to cry right now how much I love the kid.
1) To make you laugh: I realized when I got to work that I'd left my travel mug at home. I texted him a ":(" and said I was sad I forgot it and he said that he talked to my tea and it missed me too.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: he bought a brand new huge iMac (he needed a new computer and this is a partial bday/graduation/Christmas present form his parents)... and I know the main reason he's excited for it is to play games :-/
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: the first thing he was excited to do when he finished his test on Friday: clean the apartment

1) To make you laugh: Lots of things, he makes me laugh all the time. Specifically though I can't think of anything off the top of my head...
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: He did the laundry yesterday and thought it would be good to dry things outside. So I got home from the long weekend and there were clothes EVERYWHERE on our deck...on the laundry rack, railing, lawn chairs...it was a nice effort, but it looked like our washer exploded
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: He has been amazing through this whole m/c process--letting me be upset, making me laugh, staying positive, doing things for me that he normally complains about (laundry, grocery shopping, etc...).
BFP 5/2/11, missed m/c, D&C 6/13/11
BFP 12/8/11--Little Girl E Born 8/22/12
1) To make you laugh:
He attempted to sing, and he is absolutely tone deaf!
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him:
He started packing to pick up the baby as soon as we got the phone call. We hadn't even been given a list yet. S is notorious for packing super early.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world
He doesn't care that his son will be black and most likely well over 6' tall, as long as he's ours. Also he didn't even flinch when I told him the amount we need to come up with in less than a month.
Awww. That's so sweet.

1) To make you laugh: he snuck up behind me last night while I was watching TV on HULU and started tickling and nibbling on me wich made me giggle.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: he will play his PS3 or watch TV and then talk to me about what is happening on the screen even rewinding the TV to show me funny things.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: I don't need him to do anything to show how lucky am, but he does let me make grand plans of what "we" are going to do when we have the money for like paint and carpet.
1) To make you laugh: Nearly falling out of the cars seat this afternoon because he was so tired.
2) To make you (lovingly) side-eye him: Complaining about not getting any sleep the last couple nights. I get less than he does.
3) To make you realize you're the luckiest woman in the world: The days that he takes all responsibility with Edmund and let me sleep as long as I want or go out for a couple hours.
