On His Profile Through My Eyes

One Saturday evening, a lady came to us and said, "You two make a cute couple." I laughed and said thank you, while he kept his cool and gave a cute crooked smile. Among many other things, his smile is one thing that will make my heart melt every time I see or think about. 

Since I don't want to take anything for granted, including that smile, I am writing a few things down about him 

♥ When he eats ice cream, he always wants a glass of milk to go with it. (I thought it's dairy overload)

♥ Every time we shake hands during Sign of Peace, he will try to tickle my palm with his index finger.
Every. Single. Time.

♥ He'll call me, Babydoll!! to let me know he's home after work everyday.

♥ Or just when he calls me Babydoll

♥ When he eats bigger portion of dinner, then I know that he likes the food I make (my Shepherd Pie does this)

♥ If we watch something really weird on TV, I'll look at him and he'll look at me with our eyebrows raised.
No words needed.

♥ When he can't ever seem to find his tools, I'll find it for him and ask rhetorically, What would you do without me.. He'll say, I don't know, baby...I don't know..

♥ He's into some TV shows that I think are crappy and strongly feels that they are good.

♥ Sometimes he'll say to Lucky (our yellow lab), Yeah, mommy loves you today. Well, it's actually annoying at the moment. What does he mean by today? I love her every day!

♥ When he snores at night.

♥ Okay, maybe scratch that last one.

♥ Just for being a really good husband. 

♥ But hey, ask me again 25 years from now, right?! ;)

Love,

Nautical Living Room

We have another living room on the first floor that we don't use (yet). Right now, we are using our second floor living room that looks like a standard living room. Couch and love seat in espresso faux leather material, espresso coffee and side table, and boring throw pillows (they came with the couch). Not to mention a bunch of speakers and electronic stuffs. We are planning on buying/making a long floating cabinet that will hide store all of those stuffs. But, that is the least of our priorities. Meanwhile, we're working on our kitchen, door and window trim, and throwing junks that we both accumulated throughout the years. Oh! And of course to prep for the coming of our own little monkey. Thus, in order to keep me sane, I have been dreaming about that first floor living room.

I have compiled several ideas of what I want to have. Obviously I focus too much on tables (I have the glass coffee table, the garden stool functioning as side table, and ship wheel side table). My husband and I for sure want a cowhide rug. I want accent chairs, for sure (wingback is preferred). But who knows when we will eventually get around to do this.

I guess it's time. Back to "work"
