Our Quirks


I originally got this post idea from Ashley @ The Shine Project.  I found it fascinating to read her relationship quirks & knew I had to do my own version of this blog post. Thanks Ashley for the brilliant idea! 

I don't know about you & your S.O. (significant other), but C & I have some pretty odd quirks. 

For instance...

- Every time we come home together (i.e. after dinner out) we quietly tip toe upstairs and spy on our dog Brutus. 9 times out of 10 Brutus is sleeping all cuddled up in a blanket somewhere. C & I will just stand there for a minute or so whispering "He's so cute" to one another. I'm sure if someone else saw us doing this they'd think we're nuts. 

- We are constantly making up stupid songs & singing them to each other. It's ridiculous. And me teaching Kindergarten doesn't help the matter. I come home singing some silly song I taught my kids at school & then it gets stuck in C's head & we're both signing it. 

- We negotiate everything! And I mean everything. "Okay, I'll walk the dogs, but can you take out the trash?" 

- Whenever I get upset about something, C calms me down by making me take deep breaths. He won't give up until I cave & take those darn deep breaths. I hate him for it in the moment, but then after it works & calms me down, I am grateful. 

Every relationship is different. Beautiful in it's own way. What are your relationship quirks?

  2. awwww I think it is so cute that you spy on your dogs! My hubby and I want to set up the computer facing the dogs and skype them while we're gone so that we can watch and see what they do while we're gone

  4. How cute! I wish I could spy on my dog. As soon as she hears the door being unlocked she freaks out. Nick is the guy who sings crazy songs all the time :)

  7. haha these are great! My husband is always making up his own version of existing songs, like changing the lyrics to fit whatever situations. He's really good at making it sound like it still works, I try and fail terribly like all the time. I always think, if someone heard us they'd think we are so weird, haha.
