house rules

After nearly three years of marriage, we have unknowingly developed a few unspoken "house rules." You know, those types of rules that are created without discussion- simply due to spending so much time together. Below are a few of ours. This may give you a little insight into our marriage.

In no particular order:

No serious talk after 9 pm.

Dinner cannot include any type of nut in the main dish or sides. This also applies to the ingredient cumin.

The wifey gets the remote in bed.

Any alarm clock that goes off more than twice may or may not be thrown down
the stairs.

Chipotle is never a lunch or dinner option.

Mr. Pibb is not the same as Dr. Pepper and should not be found in the fridge. Dr Thunder is acceptable.

Whoever smells the poop must change the diaper.

A certain person should always have at least a sip of coffee before directly spoken to in the morning.

It isn't necessary to play the same You Tube video over and over. After three times, please wear headphones.

All Scrabble matches must be played with the Official Scrabble Dictionary. No guessing words are real!

It makes me smile to think about how much you learn about someone through sharing life with them. It is funny how you know other's quirks and silly likes and dislikes. We are really learning that considering the other person better than yourself (Phil 2:3) really does wonders for our marriage! Love you Hubs!

Mr. Hudson is quickly approaching his 1st birthday. He is still crawling everywhere, and he has finally figured out how to cruise all over the furniture. Instead of playing with his toys, he would rather try to push the buttons on all electronics as well as repeatedly swinging the flat screen up against the wall.--It's on a swivel. He likes to jump in his bed. He loves pasta, but dislikes any type of breakfast food. He has 7 teeth. He waves, motorboats, shakes his head no, locates eyes and noses, and claps. He zones out to Praise Baby once a day. He loves outside. He makes me laugh out loud.
