my favorite time of day


i love bedtime. its my favorite time of the day. no matter how good or bad my day has been, i know that the one constant is bedtime with my husband. its a time to relax, catch up on our favorite shows and just talk about whatever. we are both equally reality junkies ;) so the DVR fills up quick. its easy to watch TV together cause we like a lot of the same shows. he may not admit it, but he likes to watch Jerseylicious just as much as i do! 

my son is a night owl, so even after a nice bath, he can stay up forever. i try to dim his lights, have him watch one of his movies and at least get under the covers of his bed! the later he stays up, the worse he is in the morning =/ i have yet to find a way to get him asleep by 830. any suggestions?! 

it took me 4 1/2 years to get him out of the bed with me. [it isnt as bad as it seems, we lived at my mom's house then and i didn't like sleeping alone either.] once we moved, he has slept every night in his own bed. this seemed to only make room for our cat and within the last months, we now have a dog who shares the bed with us too. we got rid of one kid and gained two animals =/ what happened there?! its like, first one to the bed better claim their spot or else they will be scrunched all night long, LOL.

but back to loving bedtime... i am so not a morning person. never have been & never will be. i love nighttime, i love laying in bed relaxing after dark. if feels good to just do nothing after a crazy day. sometimes, i catch up on my book im reading at the moment or type away at a blog. i need my pink & brown blanket and no pillow. im not a fan. he on the other hand has his pillow and barely a sheet over him. one of these days im investing in an electric blanket. i am ALWAYS cold and he is ALWAYS hot! i want the heater on and he wants the door open, fan blowing! despite our differences, it just works :) it makes us who we are as a married couple. even when we lay in bed in complete silence, it is never awkward. 
i guess you would call that comfortable love<3
how many can say they have that?!
