Tagged again! I just never seem to get a break...

I've been tagged twice in the last week (two different types of tags too), but Melody tagged me first, so here it is:

How long have you been together? 3 years, 9 months (only 5 months longer than when we started dating)

How long did you date? 3 months (engaged for 2)

How old is he? 25

Who eats more? Casey, but I'm hungry more often.

Who said "I love you" first? Casey did.

Who is taller? Casey

Who sings better? I do, but Casey loves to sing along to everything : )

Who is smarter? Overall, I think Casey is smarter, but it also depends on the subject.

Who does the laundry? We switch right now. He'll do it when I'm busier with work and I'll do it when he's busier with school/tutoring, but Casey does it more often.

Who does the dishes? Casey started empyting the dishwasher a few months ago, and I would load/wash, but it's back to me again. Casey despises doing the dishes. He'd rather clean the entire house anyday than do dishes.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed? I do. Casey always likes me on his right side.

Who pays the bills? We're in the process of switching all bill paying over to me for when he starts working full-time.

Who mows the lawn? We don't have one.

Who cooks dinner? Me, me, and me. We would either starve or eat out all the time if Casey was in charge of dinner : )

Who is more stubborn? I am, but Casey is pretty stubborn too. Even when he is wrong he still argues with you until you start doubting that you're right. He says sorry first almost all of the time though.

Who kissed who first? He kissed me first

Who asked who out? Technically, he asked me out on our first "date," but I wasn't very happy about it being a date at the time. We didn't start really dating until after he kissed me a few months later.

Who proposed? Casey

Who is more sensitive? Me, if sensitive is synonymous with emotional.

Who has more friends? Casey. He is one of the most loyal friends I've ever met.

Who has more siblings? I do (7 to his 3)


I tag: Janelle, Joanna, Kerstin, Tracie, and Jenna.

2nd Anniversary of My Blog!

Wow, time flies! It's been two years since my first post, and it was one of the best things that I've ever done. I love to blog and it has been an online journal of the last two years. I especially like looking back at all my previous posts and seeing what we've done. Thanks to Jason for getting me started and constantly nagging me for months until I finally put up my first post : )

On another note, today is my nephew Brady's 1st birthday (Happy Birthday Brady!), but it is also Mardi Gras!/Fat Tuesday. Now, I know we're not Catholic, but after Fat Tuesday, they celebrate Ash Wednesday, which is the first day of Lent. During Lent, they give up one thing for six weeks. I figured since I've given up drinking soda for almost a year now, that giving up something else for 6 weeks would be nothing. I decided to give up fast food. We don't get fast food that much as is, but that's what I decided to give up. Casey is following my lead and giving up soda. What would you give up for six weeks?*

*It doesn't have to be food related

"Big Boy!"

This is my latest pregnancy update. I'm now 32 weeks (only 8 weeks left!) and I had another sonogram yesterday. I don't remember if I mentioned this before, but when we found out it was a boy, the sonogram also showed him a week ahead of schedule, so my doctor said that if I went into labor around the 22nd of March (my due date is the 29th), that I shouldn't be surprised. Yesterday, the sonogram showed him 2 weeks ahead of schedule. One of things he asked me was, "what are you feeding this kid?" What do you say to that? Fruits, vegetables, whatever I'm eating at the time. I don't know. So apparently we have a big boy on our hands or I'm a little off for some reason or another. The good news about all of this is he may come two weeks early all by himself or if I'm ready, the doctor will induce me in my 39th week. I was perfectly okay waiting, but I wouldn't argue if I got to go a week early : ) As Casey and I were talking about our "big boy," I couldn't help but think of one of Casey's favorite commercials. It makes him laugh every time. Enjoy!

During my sonogram, while my doctor was taking some measurements, I started feeling a little lightheaded and was pretty close to passing out, so I told Casey I wasn't feeling so well and Casey was like, "ummm, doctor." The doctor then told me to quickly lay on my left side. Because I was on my back and the pillow underneath me was flat as a pancake, I wasn't getting enough oxygen to my brain (the reason you shouldn't sleep on your back). It took me a few minutes to feel normal again and my doctor kept apologizing for making me sick. After my appointment, we went to Wendy's before I took Casey to school since he hadn't had breakfast yet. As I finished my not so good breakfast sandwich, I still wasn't feeling very good and Casey knew what was coming, so he said I had better get to the bathroom. I didn't quite make it and it ended up all over the Wendy's bathroom floor. Casey wanted to leave it as a "surprise," but I told the lady at the cash register. She didn't speak very good english, but understood enough that she didn't look too happy. I felt so bad, but it was only the second time that I've been pregnant and couldn't make it to the bathroom in time and made a mess. That helped me feel a little less guilty.

Christmas Fun!

These are a few pictures from our Christmas vacation. We went up to Casey's mom's this year and had a great time. We also stayed a little bit longer than everyone else, so we got to do some fun things like going to see The Pittock Mansion, with each room decorated in different fairytale themes, and the Spruce Goose, which is the biggest plane ever built (but was only flown once for less than 30 seconds). Here are a few of my favorite pictures.

Pittock Mansion

Alice in Wonderland room Thumbelina room

It was a rainy day, and I think I had a more fun taking pictures outside than inside : )

The Spruce Goose
Inside the Spruce Goose. It was actually made of many different kinds of wood, including a little spruce.

Open Wide!

I feel like everyone has been leaving me in their blogging dust lately, but I'm attempting to catch up this weekend, so here it goes. This last summer, Nate graduated from dental school and is now a full-fledged doctor. Casey thinks it is so weird to know that his brother is known by his patients as "Dr. Tanner." Anyways, while were up for Christmas break, we went to the dentist to get our teeth cleaned. Nate did a great job! Thanks!

Me and my totally awesome glasses that they had me wear. It was for my own protection. I wouldn't want a stray piece of plaque to find it's way into my eye : )

Nate and Casey looking at Casey's x-rays. Casey being the curious person that he is, was very interested in this and asked a lot of questions.
