"Tag"

Thanks to Camille, we have been tagged. It is a good thing because I haven't posted for a while and I need to let everyone know we are still alive.
Note: I have changed some of the questions.

What is his name?
Julio (now) - Vince (then), long story short, same person different name - one that is more...him.

How long have you been together?
11 1/2 together - 9 1/2 years married

How long did you date?
1 and a half years

How old is he?
27 -what can I say, I like younger men (by 3 months)!


Who is taller?
Julio's license says 5'6, and if you talk to him he will say 5'8, the truth we see eye to eye at 5'4.

Who can sing better?
Either one of us could be on American Idol. At the beginning of the season where they make fun of people.

Who is smarter?
Julio - but to my defense I have been in toddler mode for 2 years, not a lot of adult conversations. I have a better memory and navigation skills.

Who does the laundry?
I do, and lately Jordan is helping. I like to keep up on laundry, Julio would put it off until there was nothing left to wear - I am not saying he is a procrastinator...it is a little worse than that.

Who is the first to give a kiss or hug?
Julio, he jumped the gun on our first encounter. But uncharacteristically of me, I am responsible for the second. Great memories.

Who pays the bills?
Me, have I mentioned Julio procrastinates?

Who mows the lawn?
I do -- it is my yard, I love gardening - I am still learning but it's a great release.

Who cooks dinner?
Me - seriously for everyone's health - me.

Who drives?
Both - I am a really bad back seat driver so Julio doesn't like to drive with me. When we travel we are a great team. Julio Drives and I navigate -- if only I could get my rights and left right, luckily Julio knows my directions.

Who is more stubborn?
Julio by far, with Diego a close second.

Who asked who out first?
I would assume Julio. We lived an hour apart (long distance) so we communicated through old fashion letters. After three months of just writing our work/school schedules opened up for a New Years date.

Who is more sentimental?
I would have to say Julio. If we remember the special dates - Julio. He is much more thoughtful on a daily basis too.

Favorite type of T.V. shows?
Julio is sports, sports and reality. I have been disappointed with the current comedies so I have fallen back on reality - Top Chef, America's next top model, American Idol, Survivor, etc.

Who has more social skills and can read the other like a hawk?
I have both. Julio can turn on his social skills, but lets be honest it is a struggle and reading people in general - not his forte.

Who has more siblings?
I do, unfortunately Julio doesn't have much of a family outside of us.

Who wears the pants?
It depends on the area/issue. For the most part we share, I run the household and Julio runs everything else.

Enjoy and I would like to "tag" Cher and Nicole!

So Jessica told me Vince changed his name to Julio a while ago and while looking at her blog I noticed yours. Since I am somewhat of a blog stalker I came to check how you guys have been doing. And what do I find? Julio telling people he is 5'8!! I am 5'7 and distinctly remember him NOT being taller than me =). Keep dreaming Julio =)! Your boys are also so ADORABLE! Oh by the way this is Kristin (Sloan) Singleton and you probably have no recollection of me, but I had to comment on Vince thinking he's 5'8. I haven't seen you guys since HS, but I am guessing he didn't have a sudden growth spurt =). Your comment made me laugh!!
