Between Husband and Wife

Some funny blurbs from the last week:

Mike:  Thank you for not being a nagging wife.
Me: I don't have to nag you, you do everything I tell you to do.
Mike: Yeah, except when I don't want to...


Setting: Laying in bed, Dallin is crying in his crib.
Me: I just want to go hold him.
Mike: You can hold me instead.
Me: It's not the same...
Mike: Would it help if I cried?


Setting: I need to show Mike something on the computer but he is in my chair.
Me: Uh, I need my chair. I can't explain it standing over here. I need to be sitting in my chair.
Mike: (Doesn't move)
Me: Jumping up and down, flailing around and pretending to have a melt down because he won't let me sit in my chair.
Mike: You do "neurotic" well.

Most of my posts are about my fabulous and adorable children, but I should also mention my fabulous and adorable husband.

Anyone who has met Mike knows I won the lottery with this choice of husband/father combo. Occasionally, he says the sweetest things and I just wanted a place to jot them down so I don't forget them.

A while back Mike went out with a bunch of his guy friends. They did a bunch of fun "guy" things. When he came home he said to me, "That was a lot of fun, but I prefer spending time with my wife."

Once I was telling him stories from my childhood and he said "Robin, if I knew you as a child, I would have been knocking on your parents door every day saying, 'Can Robin come out and play?'"

We were loving the Bourne Identity trilogy. One night I asked him what he would do if I got amnesia and he said "I'd have fun making you fall in love with me again".

Recently someone said I was so lucky to have Mike because he is so good to me, he spoils me rotten, he does the dishes, he bathes the children, etc. When I relayed the info to Mike he simply said, "Isn't that how I should treat my queen".
