Happy Birthday Steve!!

Steve is 26 today! He is so wonderful and such an amazing husband! I am so grateful for the almost 4 years that I have known and spent with him...

"26" Things You May Not Know About Steve:

1. Steve LOVES Matlock (I hate to admit that to people). He TiVo's every episode daily and he now owns all of the seasons that have come out!

2. Steve loves waterskiing and says says that in 5 years we will own our own boat and go all the time.

3. He knows more about East Coast and West Coast rap than anyone I have ever met. He used to listen to 2pac and sometimes watches his life history on tv and will tell me all about it!

4. He also loves the shows "Big Daddy's House" and "Guy's Big Bite" on the food network and is constantly experimenting with their recipes.

5. Steve is either an extremely passive or extremely aggressive driver. There is never any gray area in his driving.

6. Steve will only wear Nautica, Polo, or Jordan. He admits that he will wear American Eagle when I force him.

7. He often uses the terms 'Kobe Bryant' and 'hate' in the same sentence.

8. He has lost 10 pounds in the last two weeks!

9. Steve collect church books.

10. He says that he is going to "strongly strongly influence" our boys to play basketball even though I want them to play hockey.

11. Steve recently admitted that he wouldn't mind having girls because he loves our little Livi so much!

12. He is a kid at heart- he loves Disney movies, trampolines, toys, and bouncehouses.

13. Steve asks me almost daily if we can get a dog- my answer never changes, "No!"

14. If you want to start an argument with Steve, suggest that Kobe Bryan or Lebron James are as good or will be as good as Michael Jordan.

15. He loves fish tanks and is jealous of people who have them when we don't!

16. Steve makes lots of sacrifices for his family. One of which being he will sit and watch all my shows with me, even though he claims to dislike most of them!

17. Steve is always trying out new laughs. If he laughs weird and we ask him why he sounds like that he says, "I'm trying out a new laugh!"

18. He loves water and amusements parks, but he refuses to go on any of the scary rides. If he does he screams like a girl and everyone around is laughing uncontrollably.

19. Steve has the worst handwriting I have ever seen. When we write cards to people I have to write it so they can read it!

20. He can do the perfect imitation of Batman's voice. He seriously could be hired for voice-overs.

21. We always say that our lives would be so dull without each other. Steve is constantly making me laugh.

22. He is deathly afraid of blood and hospitals. He says he'll be in the waiting room when I have my babies!

23. Steve does not know about to wipe our kitchen counters- after being yelled at several times for doing it with a dry paper towel, he always saves them for me.

24. Steve can only cook certain things really well- Top Ramen, English Muffin Egg Sandwiches, milkshakes, and smoothies.

25. He loves playing Monopoly with anyone that will play. Even though he rarely wins he is extremely competitive and will always try to get Boardwalk and Park Place.

26. He cracks his toes in his sleep and I can't stand it!!

cracking toes in his sleep? very unique! :) and i laughed with the "hate" and "Kobe Bryant" being in the same sentence... Kris is the same way! I did a post like this and felt a little excessive doing it, so I am glad to see someone else write a lot about their husband! :)

Mere, I am in bed reading these and laughing my head off. Dad wants me to leave if I can't stop shaking the bed. He is trying to sleep! Anyway, I loved reading each one - what a fun thing to write about! You are both perfect for each other! I love you both!
