Re: SO questions

  • Does your SO have hobbies that he does by himself?

    - No, I wish he did.  I guess fire department stuff is a hobby, but not really.  It does take up a lot of his time, but he generally gets paid for it (although not really for all he does).  

    Do you have hobbies you do together?

    - I've gotten him into some of the things I grew up doing with my family:  fishing, ice fishing.  We're also looking to buy both a snowmobile and a camper so those will be added in. 

    Does your SO have siblings (if so, how many, ages etc)? 

    - No siblings.  :(

    Do you have hobbies you do together? Traveling and seeing new places. Eating at new restaurants. Participating in local events. I'm not sure if those really count as hobbies, though.

    Does your SO have siblings (if so, how many, ages etc)? Yes, he has one brother who is just less than 2 years older than DH. BIL is married to my fabulous SIL and they have the twins. DH & my BIL could not be more different, personality wise. It's comical how different they are.

  • Does your SO have hobbies that he does by himself?
    yes - he took up cycling this past summer and he just got a mount that allows him to ride in the basement (it basically turns his bike into a stationary bike).  He really enjoys it and when he can ride outside will go for 50 mile rides.  He wants to work his way up to a 100 mile ride this summer.

    he's an expert skiier as well - he doesn't get up to the mountain as much as he'd like, but skiing his is true love

    he also does random projects around the house - he loves working with his hands.

    and he loves plays xbox, but not a ton

     

    Do you have hobbies you do together?
    I'm hoping to go on bike rides with him this summer (not the long ones he does, more recreationally), and we occasionally ski together but I only learned a few years ago so he has to really "dumb down" his skiing to go with me

    does going to the beach count?  we do that a lot in the summer

    1 older sister, she's 29

    Do you have hobbies you do together?

    -not very many but we are trying to work on that. We are hoping to make camping and hiking in the summer a priority. We both want Brynn and any future siblings to love the outdoors. 

    Does your SO have siblings (if so, how many, ages etc)? 

    -He has a sister who is just about to turn 34(he is 35). They are very close in age so sometimes they get along great and are very close and sometimes they drive each other bonkers. She and I were actually friends first before Kirk and I started dating. This has complicated things because as time has gone on, I have had to become more loyal to Kirk since he is my hubby. This has added to some drama over the years. He also has a 5 step-siblings from his parent's remarriages. We aren't really close to them since his parents both remarried when he was in his 20's.

  • Does your SO have hobbies that he does by himself? He likes to golf and has offered to take me.  No thank you.Do you have hobbies you do together? We cook together sometimes and we're great at shopping, too.  I'm not sure if I'd consider it a hobby, but we both love to travel and have done so and will keep doing so.  We also like to wine taste when I'm not pregnant or nursing.Does your SO have siblings (if so, how many, ages etc)?  Yes, he has three brothers all older.  Israel is the eldest at 40-something (I think he just turned 43 a couple weeks ago), then it's Javiel who I think is 40??.  Next is Melvin who is actually my age (32) and Alexi who is 6 months younger than me.  Melvin was born in 79 and Alexi and I were born in 80.  A little family trivia from him: His eldest bro, Israel was born in Puerto Rico, then Javiel was born in the US, then Melvin (even with the large age gap) was born in Puerto Rico, and then his mom came back to the US and had Alexi here.  It's pretty funny she alternated birth places for each kid.
