Re: Favorite Tradition

every night when he crawls into bed, puts his arm across my waist & pulls me close to him.

the little smile & look we give each other when our kids do/say something cute - because there isn't anyone on the planet that loves them as we do or can stand hearing all of our stories about them.

when we get into the car, how he'll pick out a cd & hold my hand as we drive. I know he picked out the song for me.

when he plays guitar & teaches the kids the words to the songs - even if they're all Grateful Dead songs.

dancing in the living room or out on the deck.

every sunday, he makes a sauce and then takes one of the kids to pick up fresh cheese & pasta. when they come home, the kids have a huge grin & run to tell me that the lady gave them a rainbow cookie. Joseph always has one that he saved for Maddie. Without fail, Maddie always eats the one that they got Joseph in the car ride home.

Re: Favorite Tradition

EVery Friday we wait til RJ goes to bed and then order our pizza, and veg in our PJ's

Every Sunday he goes for bagels (sometimes- lets me sleep in and takes RJ with him)

The way he yells "love you guys" to me and the baby everyday just as he closes the front door...

When I get into bed (no matter what time) he always says " honey- come lay with me..and pulls me closer)


On nights I take a bath with the baby- DH comes and sits on top of the toliet and plays with us....

One that comes to mind- we always go to the beach and walk to the lighthouse over at Fire Island. We just really love going there.

OK, I'm crying over here!!

Mine are:
DH and I go out to dinner every Friday night...nowadays, it's usually Ground Round Chat Icon

Every year we go on some historical vacation.

Every year, last week of December, we go to some local bar and make our "New Year's Resolutions, People of the Year, and Predictions for the Coming Year" and also bring the last year's list and see what came true!

Every night before bed we go down the hall to Katherine's room and look in on her in her crib. She's usually in some funny position and we always say, "She's a crazy baby!"
