  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you? We're the same age, he's just 4 months older, so I frequently remind him that he's old compared to me.

    2. How did the two of you meet? In church when we were 8.

    3. How did he propose? July 4, 2008. We had gone to this big boardwalk that we have with restaurants, shops and rides to have dinner and watch the fireworks with my family. I just knew he was going to propose, but when he didn't do it when I thought he was going to (at the beginning of the fireworks) I walked away to talk to my sister...when I turned back around to go to him, he was on his knee. :)

    4. What does he do for a living? He works in IT.

    5. Why will he make a good dad? Oh, the easier question would be why wouldn't he make a good dad, because there wouldn't be answer. He is very loving, and will do pretty much anything to make me happy, and he's going to be the same way with LO.

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits? His kindness, his patience and how genuine he is. I love that man.

    Thanks! :)

    Since it's a holiday and it's an important day in history for us, we usually try to do something fun each year on the 4th, but with me KU, we aren't this year.

    Last year was the best...we spent the 4th in D.C. It was amazing.

    3. How did he propose?

    On a snowshoe trip at the cabin, I thought he was kidding and pushed him in the snow, luckily he didn't lose the ring! 

    4. What does he do for a living?

    He is a mechanical engineer, he does a lot of sales and travel.

  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you? He is 29, about to be 30. He is 3 years younger than me.

    2. How did the two of you meet? I worked at a Uni and he was a new student there (not a freshman). I was manning a table for anime and Linux groups and he was one of the few geeks interested. We were instant friends and there was an instant chemistry, but I was married. We were best friends for years, my marriage ended (had nothing to do with DH), and a year after that we started dating, got married and made babies. :D

    3. How did he propose? It was pretty simple (and maybe a touch cliche), but he was so nervous and wonderful! Rose petals and candles everywhere, ice wine, and he wrote me a poem that made us both cry. He'd also found the *perfect* ring for me. I knew about its existence and wanted it so badly, but it was sold out everywhere. He even talked to custom jewelers about having it specially made. He had told me he tried and couldn't do it, but hoped that the substitute he found would make me happy. I of course told him the ring didn't matter nearly as much as spending my life with him. Then...he opened the box and there it was, perfect as ever. It turns out he'd tracked down 1 of 2 left in the entire country and had it shipped to him. <3

    4. What does he do for a living? He is a programmer. His Masters is in User Interface Design, but it is hard to get a job in that without a lot of experience, so he is biding his time.

    5. Why will he make a good dad? We already have a son and he is an amazing dad! He is so much fun, full of energy, constantly enamored, way into teaching. He is capable of being a disciplinarian (which surprises us both), but always in loving ways. He always puts our son first.

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits? I hope our kids have his constant awe and love of life. He has brought that back out in me, and so far DS has it in spades. I hope our kids get his gift for learning and teaching. I hope they get his skin that almost never burns in the sun (DS has it so far).

    7. Post a pic! This is DH and DS on Father's Day, with DH proudly wearing the shirt DS and I made him last year.

  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you? 30, he is four years older than I am.

    2. How did the two of you meet? At a friends birthday party, I was the DD for my older sisters, and didn't know anyone.

We were both in relationships at the time, but a year later he admitted he wanted to be more than friends, and we were both single then, so we started dating. Four years later, here we are!

    3. How did he propose? We bought a house together after living together for awhile, and the first night in the new house, he slipped me some "will you marry me" m&ms, and when I looked up, he was down on one knee. It was amazing :)

    4. What does he do for a living? Firefighter

    5. Why will he make a good dad? The best. He is going to have such a daddy's girl - I'm so excited to see his relationship with our daughter grow.

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits? His amazing kindness, his emotional strength, his love of the outdoors. 

    7. Post a pic! He would not appreciate that, but he is in my siggy pic somewhere :)

    1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you? 26, he's older than me by a year.

    2. How did the two of you meet? At church. There's a 20-30's group that would get together for fun events and when I saw him, I knew I needed to introduce myself.

    3. How did he propose? We had been talking about marriage for a few months and even set a date before engaged. The day we went looking at reception venues and meeting with pastors, he proposed outside of our church under a large cross. I was so worried we would be late to our appointment that I rushed him. He proposed a second time with an upgraded ring under the Arch downtown. After a nice afternoon touring Busch stadium, we went to the Arch grounds, he got down on one knee and I said, "What are you doing? Get up we're already engaged." I ruined both of his proposals. It's become a joke around here.

    4. What does he do for a living? He works for Citi-Group 

    5. Why will he make a good dad? Because of the way he loves God, and love me. Being a good husband will help him be a good parent. Plus, on our first date, he said, "my number two goal in life is to be a dad" it's something he's dreamed about.

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits? Personality, He's more friendly than I am, his brains, his teeth...

    -He's not very romantic. I knew he asked my parents permission. He asks my mothe and my father since they are divorced. I knew he had gotten a ring and I knew when he picked it up. He picked it up and came right to me because he didn't want to lose the ring. He proposed on his knee in my kitchen.

    -He is a union heavy equipment operator. Drills, excavators an such.

    -He is patient and loves to teach. His younger brother had a learning disability and he always spent his extra time with him. He's more level headed than me and also does not worry like I do.

    -Patients, no stress attitude, smart and full of common sense.

  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you?

    He's 24, 6 months older than me

    2. How did the two of you meet?

    Our older brothers have been best friends for many years and we all hang out in the same social group. One night we were all going to an open mike night at a bar and the two of us started talking and just "clicked". We saw each other a few more times at parties and friends houses until he finally asked me out on a real date.

    3. How did he propose?

    Still waiting for that :) We've been together over 3 yrs. and have a wonderful, committed relationship. When we found out I was pregnant we decided to focus on preparing for the baby and getting ourselves ready to be parents rather than be distracted by worrying about getting married right away. We already consider ourselves a family, so the official ceremony can wait awhile.

    4. What does he do for a living?

    He's a customer service representative in the food and beverage industry. Haha just kidding....he's a server/bartender at an Italian restaurant. He's working his way through college to get a mathematics degree so he can bring us home some real bacon!

    5. Why will he make a good dad?

    Because he's extremely excited about our son and is commited to being involved in our lives no matter what. He's a very silly, fun-loving person with endless patience and generosity for his friends and family. Every time we do something now he says "I can't wait to teach our son----" 

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits?

    His smile, blue eyes, thick curly hair, and intelligence. The only thing I'm hoping our son does NOT inherit is his ADHD.

    7. Post a pic!

  • 1) He's turning 30 in November. He's 2.5 years older than me. 

    2) I was working in the city where he was living. Turns out, we went to high school in small towns right near each other.

    3) He hid a ring under a card in front of a huge Edible Arrangement for our anniversary. I was so excited about the chocolate strawberries, I didn't think to open the card. Eventually he was like, "Maybe you should read the cards now?" It must have killed him to watch me be so excited chowing down on strawberries while he was waiting.

    4) He works in health care IT.

    5) He's funny and patient and fun. He'll make a great dad because he balances out my personality so well.

    6) I hope our little guy grows up respecting and treating women the way his dad treats me. I hope he's as logical as his dad, too.

    7) I'm not on the computer with my pictures. Oh snap. He'd probably be upset if I posted his face on the internet anyway. :P

  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you? He's 27 - a year and four days older than me.

    2. How did the two of you meet? He lived in the house across the street from the one my parents bought my sophomore year of high school. We used to hate each other - he thought I was a stuck-up teacher's pet; I thought he was an immature wanna-be.

    3. How did he propose? He proposed Thanksgiving 2007 at his house - in front of his entire family. We'd done Thanksgiving with our separate families, then I thought we were meeting back at his place for a small family get-together for dessert...instead, he proposed. :)

    4. What does he do for a living? He's in the Air Force.

    5. Why will he make a good dad? He's a great dad to DS #1 already. He's patient, engaged and definitely loves DS. He knows when to be stern but is never too stern, and he always puts the well-being of our boys first.

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits? I really hope he inherits his dad's patience and laid-back demeanor. I can be very uptight and stress out easily over things, while H is the complete opposite. I'd prefer our boys to not be as high-stress as I am.

    7. Post a pic! Most recent picture I have - New Year's Eve 2011. Hopefully, we get more recent pics taken when he gets home in a few weeks.

  • 1. How old is your SO, Is he older or younger than you?

    He's 28, about 4.2 years older than me.

    2. How did the two of you meet?

    We met playing World of Warcraft - I became friends with one of his friends who recommended the guild he was in ... I joined... my husband and I were both healers and we quickly hit it off.

    3. How did he propose?

    It was more of this knowledge from fairly on in our relationship that we would end up married if I moved to Florida to be with him (as at the time, I lived in IL). I remember one time looking into his eyes and god help me if this isn't the cheesiest thing in the world, but I looked into his eyes and saw him looking back at me in a way that held all of the affection and love that he could ever have for me.

    4. What does he do for a living?

    He's a social worker.

    5. Why will he make a good dad?

    He has a drive to make the best out of any situation and when in doubt, he's able to learn quickly and oh - of course - he already makes some pretty bad dad-style puns!

    6. What qualities of his do you hope your baby inherits?

    His work ethic of always striving to do his best regardless of how others around him act. His confidence. His amazing hair, and eyes (though preferably in my colors!), and athletic ability.
