Little Did We Know...

One year ago, on this day (the Sunday after Thanksgiving) Mike and I reconnected at ICT when Pam invited us both for brunch. 

Mike would text me a few days later... and ask me to go Christmas shopping with him... then "what are you doing for New Year's Eve?"... then dinner... then the Bodies exhibit at CT Science Center... and so on and so on... 

And now... we're in a Chevy Tahoe with the people Elijah has come to know as Big Dude, Gramma Sharon, Grampa Mike, and Uncle Matty-pop driving home from Thanksgiving at Greatmom's in VA. 

How a bearded man says it:

When my guy came over after working on a roof in RI all weekend...

He walked in the door and my heart lept! I skipped into his arms and didn't stop squeezing until he said... "Kiss me, you jerk."

Mo Nana

I was so excited to tell Big Dude that his bubs said, "Mo nana" (more banana) this morning. 

Me:  More banana. Eli's first two word sentence. Not supposed to do that til closer to two.

Him:  Sick

Me:  Word

Me:  Pretty sure he also says, "I did it."

Him:  He's a bro

Me:  I think we have an advanced little bub

Him:  Seems like it, good thing he has none of my genes or that probably wouldn't be the case

Me:  Dude, your genes are gonna make ridiculously smart-assed, quick-witted pains in my butt.

Him:  Truth

Me:  I'll love it. We're gonna have such a fun and happy home.

Him:  Very truth 

<3

You know it's real when...

Me:  The crankies are coming back on.
Me:  I want to run away.
Him:  I'll go with you.

Double Stuf Oreos

Yesterday, BD had the day off for Veteran's Day.  So, naturally, we planned a lunch date.

On the drive into work, my boss, formally known as, "Daddy," mentioned that we had a lunch meeting. Dang...

As the day was drawing to an end, I texted my man, "I miss you."
He replied, "I'm going to be stopping by soon."
(On his way to the bus for his team's soccer game!!--Class S Semi Finals...which they won...WOOT!)

When he arrived, we sat down next to each other in the "waiting area" and he pulled out a sleeve of Double Stuf Oreos. :-)
I said, "Is this our date?!"
"Yup."

"What's your ring size?"

0:-)

While watching Scrubs (when Keith proposes to Elliot): 

"Does the guy put the ring on the finger before she says 'yes' or after? These are things I'm going to need to know."
