Some Trivia

This is from 2004 - we went on a last-minute trip to Boston and it was so fun!

I was tagged by my friend Stacy. I am going to do a shorter version because I have posted so much this week already. Here are some details about me and Ben:

How long have we been married? 7 years

How long did we date? 7 months (and were engaged for 2 1/2 months - it was fast!!)

    How old is he? turning 30 on May 23rd

    Who eats more? Definitely Ben. (but he eats way more healthy foods and enjoys them... I force myself to eat some healthy foods but crave the sweet stuff too)

    Who is taller? Ben by 9 1/2 inches :)

    Who sings better? Ben Ben Ben

Who is smarter? Hmm... Ben has the Ph.D, but I feel like we're both smart in different ways that complement each other.

    Whose temper is worse? I think it's a tie.

    Who pays the bills? Definitely me. I love getting the mail and I usually pay the bills the day they arrive.

    Who does the laundry? We usually do the laundry together at night after Eli's in bed. It's hard not having laundry in our unit - we have to do it in the basement of our building (shared with other people)

    Who drives when together? I do, mostly just because Ben takes the train to work so the seat is always in my spot - right up to the steering wheel :)

    Who is the first to admit when wrong? Ben. I'm trying to be better at that though.

    What is my favorite thing about him? I love watching Ben interact with Eli - he's very fun and creative in coming up with games and things to play with our little guy. Ben is also really good at coming up with something to eat by looking in our fridge/cupboard (whereas I just stare at everything and want to order takeout instead).

    I think this picture from Ben's graduation last summer is so funny. First, the cap is pretty hilarious. And Eli is showing off his powerful lungs at one month old...

Jeff and Ben are exactly alike and you and I are alike....Jeff can make a gourmet dinner out of nothing and I look in the fridge and cupboards and see nothing to make!

I agree with Khania - Ben doesn't look bad, but the hat is funny! I like the first picture of you two!

I love the grad pic. I think the phd graduation getup is so dorky looking. And I love Eli! So cute (though he looks pretty angry!)
