29 reasons why i am in love with my husband.

because he includes Taylor in everything and lets her do things I probably wouldn't.....

because he's got to be the coolest easter egg dyer around....

and taylor adores him. (and so do i)

because he's a gangster. ha!
because he has my kiss tattooed on him. =)
because he looks AMAZING all dressed up....
for the feelings this picture brings me.... the best day of my life, marrying him!!!
because he is an amazing kisser.

because he went to high school musical on ice with us and sat in the first row, and chased me around with taylor and him yelling "WE'RE WITH THAT LADY RIGHT THERE!!! THE ONE IN THOSE JEANS AND THAT SHIRT WALKING FAST TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM US!!!!!", through that megaphone he's holding....
because he toasts apple cider with us on new years eve.... no big parties.... just the 3 of us at home for our first new years together....
because i never thought i'd want another child again in my life, until him.... and then our first little boy came along. this was Lewie's very first picture at 9 weeks and 6 days. jason and i couldn't stop looking at this picture.
because he's so much fun in the snow. (him and Tiki sliding down the hill on a disc)
because he is SO fun to be around, and can make me laugh at any moment and like no other human being on this planet!!!

because he is just SO incredibly handsome!!!
because of moments like these....
because even when i was as big as a hippo, he still loved me and told me i was beautiful and doing a great job, everyday....
because he pushed me around in a wheelchair with balloons in his pocket on the 4th of july so i could be part of the street parade too. =) (and he let me stuff my face with icees)
because only HE would keep his hat on while i had surgery.
because this was the view from my hospital bed when Lewie was born.... it makes me smile everytime. =)
because he is such a loving man....
because he takes one for the team....
because of images like these....
because he helps me give up control and lets taylor be a kid.... and get dirty... when i'd probably be freaking out right about now.
and then when i give up control, he makes me see the wonderful results.... like taylor's incredible pumpkin. =)
because he gives me beautiful flowers for no particular reason at all.
because this picture makes me smile.... it's a feeling of completeness that i've never ever felt before....
because he's fun and playful....
because he's incredibly thoughtful....

because who else would have a hydration center on their side of the bed for me to pick up after.... constantly....

because he's beautiful every... single.... moment, and he doesn't even know it....
because he is my very best friend in the whole wide world and i give thanks every single day, especially today.... 29 years ago he was born....

Happy Birthday my love.

I love you more than I will ever be able to show you in my lifetime....
