the good wife in me. (again)

Everyday this week, as soon as he walks in the door, run up to your sweetheart and give him a great big hug and a welcome home kiss. Just drop whatever it is you're doing and greet him as soon as he walks in!

( If it's you that "walks in the the door" just run over and hug him anyway and give him a big ole sloppy "I missed you all day'"kiss)

I did this everyday last week and it really helped set a positive tone for the rest of our evenings together. I don't even think Drew realized I was making the effort but it made me feel more loving and like a better wife. And it was nice because after the first couple days Miles joined in on the hugs. It felt good to welcome him home after his long day at a job that's less than his ideal.

I've read somewhere that the first four minutes of interaction after a spouse arrives home sets the mood for the rest of the day/night.  So why not try this week, to make every night together start off with a tender embrace and a sweet little kiss.


Speaking of hugs... One of my favorite websites posted this video a week or so ago and I had to share. It's sure to bring a smile to your face and maybe even a tear or two. I LOVE it.

1. Gather a bunch of your lovers favorite candies.

2. Stash them in the passenger side sun visor (add a little love note if your feeling extra adventurous)

3. Take him for a drive (to the store, gas station, whatever but YOU need to be driving)

4. Ask him to get your (insert fictitious object here) I said "sunglasses" from the visor

5. Watch his surprise and delight when he is showered with his favorite candies and a love note!!!

It' s awesome. Promise!

bath time.

Wanna have some spunky fun tonight? Put the little ones to bed and give your hubby a bath! Sounds a little strange maybe but it's actually great fun!


Drew randomly asked me to give him a bath the other night and I gotta say, it was hilarious! And it maybe ended up being way more fun than either of us bargained for!

Try it tonight! Your hubby will eat up the attention and you'll love the feeling of caring for him in a new and different way! There will be good vibes all around, promise!

(here's a pic from the 4th just b/c I'm excited to finally know how to make pics HUGE on this blog! Thanks again Christina!)



Happy Friday and have fun in the tub!
