Fun "Can your DH" poll (stolen from 12-24)
I thought this was a pretty good and funny one, so I had to steal it for all to enjoy = )
1. Take care of your LO from morning until night without asking you what needs to be done
2. Remember your favorite candy and buy if for you on occasion "just because"
3. Clean the bathroom
4. Do laundry (and I mean correctly).
5. Give a back massage w/o it being foreplay.
6. Sit through a chick flick without complaining.
7. Let you sleep in on the weekends without you asking.
8. Let you go out with your friends with out pouting or whining.
9. Play your favorite song to say he's sorry after a fight (I know this one is a little weird, but he hates my favorite band and my favorite song. So if I hear it playing - I know he's ready to make up)
10. Sit through something he finds excruciating, just because you love it.
Re: Fun "Can your DH" poll (stolen from 12-24)
1. Take care of your LO from morning until night without asking you what needs to be done Yes - I have had to travel overnight several times and DH is a champ = )
2. Remember your favorite candy and buy if for you on occasion "just because" Ummm, I'm going to have to say no/maybe for this one. He put Whoppers in my stocking - I HATE malt - yuck.... But I think he probably has done well in the past
3. Clean the bathroom Yes - not necessarily the way I would, but he does
4. Do laundry (and I mean correctly). Yes - he's more anal retentive about laundry than I am!
5. Give a back massage w/o it being foreplay. Pre marriage, yes, post-marriage, not-so-much....
6. Sit through a chick flick without complaining. Yes, mostly, I suppose, although he'll make fun of me when I cry... and I'm a HUGE crier!
7. Let you sleep in on the weekends without you asking. Well, I'm a light sleeper, so if J is stirring, I'm usually up. But, we take turns sleeping in, so I give him credit for that.

1. Take care of your LO from morning until night without asking you what needs to be done. Yes--he has a few days off during the week (when he has to work the weekends), and everyone at work is so surprised that he keeps J at home when he's off. He's a great dad!

10. Sit through something he finds excruciating, just because you love it. Yes, if I have no one else to sit through it with me! (ETA: Such as seeing New Moon, he would have gone with me had my sister and niece not been in town, but he really really didn't want to go)
