Not five minutes after we’d kissed her goodnight, Julia appeared in the kitchen.
“You forgot to give me a hug and a kiss, Mummy. Daddy too,” she added.
El Staller Supremo, she is.
“No I didn’t, Julia,” I said, opening my arms. She walked over to me and hugged my waist. “You’re just saying that because you don’t want to go to bed.” I kissed the top of her head, caught her grin from the corner of my eye. “Go give Daddy a hug and kiss, and then it’s back to bed, okay?”
She nodded and went down to the den, where Dave was sitting on the couch. She jumped on his lap. “I’m out of love, Daddy,” she announced.
“Don’t worry, sweetie. I have lots of love for you.” He kissed her chin. “I’ll fill you up with kisses on your chin. I’ll give you all of my love.”
Julia looked at him. “No, you can’t! Then there won’t be any love left for Mummy!”
Dave glanced over at me, a sly grin spreading across his face. “That’s okay, Julia. Me and Mummy can make some more love,” he said.
I looked down at him from where I was sitting at the breakfast bar and rolled my eyes.
“Okay, Daddy. That’s good. When will you make it?”
“Tonight, Julia,” he said confidently. “Alllll night long.”
She smiled, satisfied. “Will she know when you’re giving it to her?”
Dave smiled back. “She sure will.”

I’ve said it before, Dave came to this earth to chew gum and kick ass, and he’s been out of gum for a while.

That’s awesome.
But, when you say this is a reason you love having kids, do you mean Dave too?
;)
February 8th, 2008
When Julia is old enough to figure that one out, she is going need years of therapy…..lol
February 8th, 2008
Dave and SB would get along just great.
February 8th, 2008
Whoa! All night long!!! I’d be pointing out when he doesn’t make it, lol. All talk, man, all talk, hehe.

February 8th, 2008
SNORTTTTTTTT!
Dang I’m impressed Dave. ;)
February 8th, 2008
Did you tell him he was flattering himself? I don’t think I could resist, personally.
February 8th, 2008
HA!!! My favorite post so far this year!
February 8th, 2008
i can’t wait till she reads this one day…”ewwww daddy, gross!” will then one day later turn into supreme admiration for you both.
February 8th, 2008
What are you doing in our house spying on us?
Too funny.
February 8th, 2008
Dave is too funny.
February 8th, 2008
That is fantastic, until she repeats that daddy and mommy will be making more love tonight.
February 8th, 2008
i’ve got me THREE supremo stallers!
February 8th, 2008
That is so wrong on so many levels. Which is probably why I’m laughing so hard.
February 8th, 2008
Bwa ha ha ha!! Just to, you know, pay him back… you could yell,
“HONEY, IS THE LOVE IN YET?”
tonight in bed.
February 8th, 2008
Oh, I can’t wait til she repeats that little conversation to a teacher or relative.
February 8th, 2008
Oh Dave. You and my man are cut from the same cloth. You gotta be a monkey in the chinese calender…just gotta be.
February 8th, 2008
If I ever meet a man like Dave (but old enough for me and not so big on farting) I’m gonna marry him. Pronto.
February 8th, 2008
Let’s hope she doesn’t remember this ;)
February 8th, 2008
They are both cheeky little monkeys.
February 9th, 2008
*Ahahahahahaha*
This is totally something my husband would say, too!
Let’s just hope she doesn’t repeat it….and believe me, she’ll wait for just the right embarassing public moment to do it ;-)
February 9th, 2008
Your husband rocks. lol
February 9th, 2008

I LOVED THIS!
February 9th, 2008
My husband would have loved to get an opportunity like that :)
Wanted to tell you that I made the Shepherd’s Pie recipe you posted in the comments on Mrs. Chicky’s blog, I modified it a bit and my whole family LOVED it. I posted about it on MomCooks and gave you a link-thanks for helping add to my list of recipes my family will eat!
February 9th, 2008
HA! it’d be pretty sad if you didn’t know when he gave it to you….
February 9th, 2008
hahahahaha
But of course, if she were to remember this conversation a few years from now….she might not find it quite as amusing.

February 9th, 2008
I love the way we as kiddos flee bedtime at all costs, and then, years and deadlines and dark circles later, we run to it, can’t wait! for it.
(Hilarious. Chris would have thrown in an obligatory “That’s what she said.”)
February 10th, 2008
Heh heh.
Ya, Boo and Dave would get along just fine….
February 10th, 2008
Thanks for making me laugh today.
February 10th, 2008
Well, now, that’s just HILARIOUS!
February 11th, 2008
Oh it was all good until I had a flashback to some cheesy 80s song (was it Air Supply?) about “makin love out of nothin at all.”
Nauseous now. Just nauseous.
But I love your sassy man. : )
February 11th, 2008
Wow. That is just naughty!
February 11th, 2008
HA – you better hope she doesn’t remember snippets of that conversation when she’s a teenager – straight to therapy for her!
February 11th, 2008
LMAO
Oh good sweet lord.*snort*
