type the letters you see in the picture above

So I'm wondering if anyone else tries to pronounce the letters they see when they leave a comment on someone's blog? Like zrogxpap or xeutonaz. I think some of them are quite fun! The funnest today was on Megan and Aaron's blog (the z one above). Thanks friends for the cheap entertainment and great blogs! Keep it up!

About the Man of the House


What is his name? Jared
How long have you been together? Known each other 4 years, Married 3 years.
How long did you date? We dated just 5 months and we were engaged 2 1/2 months
Who eats more? I think I do.
Who said I love you first? He did.
Who is taller? Jared is a couple of inches taller
Who is smarter? Jared is book smart, I think I'm more "street" smart.
Who does the laundry? I do. I'm super anal about the way the laundry is done. Some things I put on gentle, some I air dry, some I use special detergent, some I use fabric softener on... and don't get me started on the folding!!
Who does the dishes? He does!!
Who sleeps on the right? I'm on Jared's right (the exalted location;). He has very particular sleeping habits... He hates it if he can feel my breath on his skin, does NOT like to be touched, and his feet have to have the sheets untucked because "[his] feet feel confined and constricted." Yeah, he's a joy!
Who pays the bills? I do this too.
Who mows the lawn? Jared does this.
Who cooks dinner? I usually cook, but Jared has a few dishes in his repertoire.
Who drives when you are together? I'm almost always the one driving! I don't like his driving, and he doesn't like my nagging. This solves both problems.
Who is more stubborn? I'm more stubborn, but Jared has his moments.
Who kissed who first? It was mutual. He initiated it, but I was hoping he would.
Who asked who out first? Jared asked me out.
Who proposed? Jared did. This is another funny story. I was pretty much expecting it.
Who has more siblings? Jessica 3--Jared 2
Who wears the pants? Jared says I do. I'm not arguing.

I think some of you have already done this type of post, but if you haven't you should. I'd like to find out more about the Prince Charmings in my friends' lives.

To all you Pride and Prejudice fans out there and I know there's a lot of ya, check out Sense and Sensibility. It's done by the same man who directed P&P. It's great! It's not on sale yet, but can be pre-ordered at Amazon. I'm gonna have to get this one!

Teeth

I've been a slacker lately with my blog. I got a bad case of the blogging blues. I think some of you may know what I'm talking about. The I-don't-have-anything-funny-interesting-or-profound-to-write syndrome. Yes, I do realize that all I talk about is the kid, but I justify this because it's mostly my family and friends who read this blog.
So I thought I'd try to do a little catch up with the blog here.
St. Patrick's Day has come and gone...



As well as Easter...



Crazy weather...



..and Doc Bear taught Luke all about taking care of his new teeth.



So, there it is. Not too much of an update, but I'm going to do better with this thingie.
