It's All About Him

Great idea Sass e-mum. (Maybe one day I'll get a name for her, even if it is made up) We got tagged by Working mum for a meme. I have definately shared plenty of info on myself so I am going to 'borrow' Sass' idea and come up with 7 odd bits of information about the husband.

7. This guy (as seen in picture with Madi) is great with his kids. He adores them and any time he is off work he will take all of them with him to do the things that he needs to do. Unfortunately, when they were dishing out the patience he must have been last in line and they were scraping the bottom of the pot because he got next to none.
6. He will come home from work to get bugs or lizards out of the house for me. This is not very often, but if it is an especially big one that I really can't deal with he will come get it for me. One time there was this salamander and I don't even think he understood how big it was...but I digress...
5. You know those really obnoxious people out at the restauraunt with the phone attached to their ear? I'd like you to meet my husband. That is him. He wears his phone on his hip and that thing makes me crazy. I sit in the car on the passenger side and fantasize about yanking it out of his hand and throwing it out the window. He does not take it on our dates and if I forwarn him he will ignore calls when we are having a serious discussion.
4. He will not go to bed without me. He will stay up and wait however long he needs to, but we go to bed together. (get your mind out of the gutter, please)
3. He is insanely afraid for me to cut his toenails for him. He says I will give him an ingrown toenail. Which means they get really long and then he uses them as weapons against me. (same as you sass)
2. With every haircut his follicle count gets lower and lower. This makes him just a little self conscience. He has somehow missed the fact that since he is the father of my children that makes him Number 1 on my list of the 50 most attractive men. ( Eric Bana and Josh Lucas can probably be found on said list as well)
1. Mostly he puts up with me. I'm what you might call 'high drama'. Meaning, I tend to over dramatize things a teeny bit.

That was pretty hard but very enjoyable. So, I think I have all that meme jazz covered. Check out Sass because she is the one who came up with the whole husband seven weird things idea and check out Working mum because she is the one who tagged us in the first place. Those crazy gals. How much fun are they? Aren't we all glad to be getting to know them?

What do you mean he has no patiences? If he'll come all the way home to remove critters, I think that is remarkable.

Those things were to funny, especially the phone thing. And that is to sweet if you go to bed at the same time. That is very endearing.

What a cute picture! I must have been in line for patience behind him. LOL I have to agree with Gigi....that is pretty sweet that he will come home to kill the scary things in your house. Also, very sweet that he waits for you to go to bed. Me and my hubby never go to bed at the same time!

Great list, but does he know? The phone thing gets me too. My husband texts like a teenager, it drives me mad! Better not continue in case it turns into a list and then I look at it and think, hmmmmmmmm!
