Last night on the way to IKEA

I told Dave to turn the wrong direction.  He started giving me a hard time about it, which is funny because it will never cease to amaze me that Dave finds his way home from work every day, so horrible is his sense of direction.  So Dave puffs up his chest and says to Alex, "Tell Mommy men are better at directions!" 

As we're making the u-turn to head back the correct way, Alex adds, "Listen to the mans!  I'm gooder at directions!"

Sure, little buddy.  Let's just hope you got the built-in GPS gene from your mother.

OMG! Too funny!
In our household, I'm the one with the sense of direction. The Hubs is just like his Mother....lost without a clue!

What a doll he is!!!
However it must be said that in my own experience mans is rarely gooder with directions and mans is always badder at FOLLOWING directions when the womens is right in the first place!

Mans also will never admit that they is lost!

Too funny! What is it with them anyway???

My husband just admitted (after 5 years of marriage) that I am the one with the built in sense of direction. I can always find my way!

But, he hasn't admitted to being wrong?? Go figure. I still don't like the car rides to new places because we always end up getting into an argument about which way is the right way or which way is N ect. Drives me CRAZY!!!!

Alex knows three routes to and from work. In all other instances I am in charge of directions.

Too cute!
Now...what did you buy at IKEA?

That boy of yours is just too cute for words!! I'm wondering what you got from Ikea also. How are things going with the house?? Have a fabulous day!

DH's favorite line -- "I always get where I need to go!"

Um, yeah.... who cares if your two HOURS late?!!!

It really sucks when we're on a car trip, though. He sleeps the whole time I'm driving, but I don't dare fall asleep while he's driving, for fear we'll end up in Canada or Mexico.
