Next time you’re in the shower.  Write a note with your finger on the steamed up mirror.  Next time your love takes a shower and steams up the mirror your love note will reappear!

Sorry I’m late again, y’all. If you’ve already read Day 3, then you know why I’m a little off my game. On that note, thank you so much to everyone that sent my sweet well wishes.

OK….Day 4. Here is a tip that is SURE to bring you some much needed romance. Maybe not “during” but definitely after!

Here is a quick lil secret about me, I am a HUGE NBA fan!  My husband has taken me to many games on my birthday, for our anniversary.  He even took me to a game and then to Yao Ming’s restaurant for our anniversary one year.  Trust me, he found the “romance”!

I’m a newbie at Football.  After this happened year after year, I decided that if you can’t beat ‘em join ‘em!!  And boy did I pick an AWESOME time to join!!  Last year was AMAZING and this season is just INCREDIBLE!!!

Right now we are the #1 team in the NFL.  We are undefeated in our division.

Oh yea, see that guy?  That’s JJ Watt, he is AFC Defensive Player of the Month for Sept. after totaling an NFL-leading 7.5 sacks & 5 passes defensed in 4 games!

I think I made this after game 2 of this season!

I can’t wait to surprise, David with some tickets!!  Although, it wont really be a surprise anymore.  Yes, the hubs reads my blog posts.  But, the when and where will be, maybe tickets in the end zone so that this can happen!

So, surprise your sweetie with tickets to see his favorite team!

You could even go all out and dress up together! lol

Remember, a happy love is a romantic love!

Did y’all notice, it’s really day 4??  I’m sorry about that.  I haven’t been myself lately and it’s been going on for a few months now.  Well, I finally know what is wrong.  I have PMDD and it is ROUGH.  It’s really awful feeling so down and not know or understanding why.  It helps a bit knowing what it is, but doesn’t really turn the “downs” into “ups”.  I’ll be starting on hormone therapy soon and I can not wait to be ME again.  If you know anyone that has suffered from PMDD or have been through it yourself, I would love some advice.  It’s really REALLY hard and I do NOT like it one bit.  I am too blessed to feel this down! Ya know!!

OK, enough of the that!  For day 3, I’m sharing something I do from time to time for my husband.  Knowing how happy it makes him, I really should do it more often.  I like to surprise him with a little gift now and then. It could be something as small as his favorite candy bar or something as big as a new video game he’s been waiting to be released for months and months.

Of course it helps if we really pay attention to their wants.  Trust me, I know how hard that is to do!   When I give David a little surprise gift and it’s something he has been hinting at, he is actually happier that I was paying attention than with actually having the gift.

So, pay attention ladies.  The next time your husband starts hollering for you to drop everything and come watch some ridiculous commercial on TV, pay attention to what it is.  It’s totally OK to give them that “you must be crazy, you know I’m trying to cook dinner” look as long as you surprise him one day with what ever it was he just HAD to show you.

It’s a bit more fun if you put your little surprise in something like his work bag, the glove compartment of the car or somewhere inconspicuous but that he would find it pretty quickly.

While looking for a “happy hubby” picture of David I came across this one.  How ADORABLE are these two and perfect since Halloween is right around the corner!

Do you give your significant other little surprise gifts from time to time?  Doesn’t it just make them so happy!

A happy love equals a romantic love!

I can’t remember exactly where I heard this next tip.  I know that David has mentioned it to me a few times and when I make sure that “it” happens he’s always in a much more happy and loving mood.  He acts as if I’ve done him a great favor by giving him a little space.

Now, I don’t mean “I need some space” space. What I mean is it’s important sometimes after our significant others come home after a long stressful day to give them space.  I know we all want to shower them with attention, especially after a “bad day” but sometimes all they need is a few moments to just unwind.

So, what I do is just let him be.  He comes home, kisses me, kisses Alice then heads upstairs.  He’ll change, relax while watching TV or catching up on emails or something.  Maybe he plays video games, I’m not exactly sure what he does because, well, I just leave him alone and I make sure Alice does too.

It won’t even be an hour (most of the time) before he’s back down stairs, playing with Alice and trying to steal bites of the dinner I’m cooking.  If you ask me it’s kind of odd how much it makes him feel better.  But, then again there is NOTHING like using the bathroom IN PEACE, BY YOUR SELF!  If I think of that way, then yes I completely see why it makes him so happy.

I will tell y’all this, happy husband equals romantic “you’re going to put the kid to sleep early tonight” husband.
