Tag, You're It!!

I was tagged by my friend Alisa and thought that "Couples Tag" was kind of fun so here goes. It was actually so funny doing this with Rod. Enjoy!!

How long have you and your significant other been together?
First date February 7th, 2003 that brings us right too 5 years.

Who eats more? Without a doubt, Rod eats the most but those rare times when I eat the same amount as him, I always make him take an extra few bites so I don’t feel like such a pig!

Who said "I love you" first? We’re having a hard time remembering this (that’s so bad huh, aren’t you supposed to remember things like this?)

Who is taller? Rod, coming in at 5’10.75” (he’s making me put the .75, he needs all the help he can get!)

Who sings better? Definitely Rod, he won’t admit it but he can harmonize even when he’s just goofing around. (I can stay on key though, you’ve got to give me something here!)

Who is smarter? Well, depends on the subject matter. Maybe we’ll just call it a toss-up.

Who does the laundry? What does this include? I always put the laundry in the washer and move it to the dryer but if folding the laundry is included in this then we both do it, folding laundry is our little “TV watching activity”.

Who does the dishes? Rod does the dinner dishes but I’m the one who keeps things done during the day and I’m almost always the one who unloads the dishwasher.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? Looking at the bed, Rod does (seems like I’ve seen that most husbands sleep on this side).

Who pays the bills? Definitely me! Rod wouldn’t know what to do if I died, periodically I have to run him through the process just in case something did happen to me!

Who mows the lawn? Rod

Who cooks dinner? I do, but Rod helps out by pouring the milk and putting the butter on the table, that’s his idea of “getting dinner ready”!

Who drives when you are together? Always Rod. He hates it when I drive, he’s a total back seat driver with me!

Who is more stubborn? Rod laughed at this and right away said “You!” What’s he trying to tell me?

Who is the first to admit when they're wrong? This one’s hard. I don’t know if either of us ever admit it, we’ll just eventually get over it. We usually end up taking blame at the same time after we’ve realized that we need to make-up.

Whose parents do you see the most? We try to avoid both of them but it’s kind of hard when we live within 10 minutes of each.

Who kissed who first? Rod kissed me first, two days after our first date. I used to tease him and tell him that if he really respected me then he would have waited longer, he just couldn’t resist, I guess.

Who proposed?
Rod, isn’t that the man’s job?

Who is more sensitive?
I think that anyone would say it’s me. Isn’t that a good thing? Although, Rod really is a little “softie”, I’ve seen him cry a time or two:)

Who has more friends? Rod thinks it’s me, I don’t object, I love my friends!! Rod has tons of friends too but he’s just not that good at keeping in touch with them.

Who has more siblings? Well, all things considered, I have 8 siblings (do the Russians count?) and Rod has 4, I’ll take this one.

Who wears the pants? I’ll admit it, I’m kind of a control freak, so I’ll take full responsibility here, isn’t it okay that I like things the way I like them?

My turn to tag you! Here goes:
Katie S.
McKenzie W.

Hi Rod and Katie-
I don't know if you remember me- Meghan Armstrong (Lane) I was good friends with Brenna. I found your blog through Meghan Durahm. We were in the same ward in Ohio.
It is so fun to see all of your pictures! Your kids are ADORABLE! I love Brynn's name! I will have to tell Shane about your blog. He is in law school in Washington. He's really bad about keeping up with his friends too! Cute family!!!
-Meghan
