Not always, but pretty close :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-72602 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:55:17 +0000 Grace 72602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes.

Now that I'm prego I'm usually resting on the couch so he comes and gives me a kiss to wake me up. Our dog does the greeting, she runs down to meet us at the steps and walks up with us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-72123 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:52:27 +0000 oliviaoblivia 72123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He walks me home from work. So I never get the at the door treatment, but I do look forward to our walks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-72103 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:36:04 +0000 mrsjyw 72103@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, we greet each other most days... sometimes we'll be upstairs or in another room so it takes a minute, but we always greet the other person coming in... </p> <p>When I was growing up, I used to run out to greet my dad at his car (we lived in a townhome complex)... there was this one time that I ran out to greet my dad, he was helping someone in their car with "directions"... lo &amp; behold, my dad was being heldup with a gun!!!! I will never forget what he looks like to this day... my dad gave him his wallet and he drove off... it was crazy. (sorry for the tangent @mr.bee) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-72007 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 02:59:47 +0000 looch 72007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, because as soon as my son hears the key in the lock, he is off like a rocket looking for his father, so I follow and greet him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71660 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 19:07:35 +0000 eeh 71660@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Umm that would be a big fat no. I never know when my husband is coming home, it could literally be any time of the day or night depending on when he went to work. And he's straight up crazy if he thinks I'm getting out of bed at 3:00am to greet him at the door. Just not gonna happen. If he's home and rested when I get off he'll meet me at the door, especially if I have a lot to carry in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71616 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:17:33 +0000 daniellemybelle 71616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: That sounds very formal and old-fashioned, in an endearing way!</p> <p>We never did this. My stepdad came home from work at a different time each day and sometimes he was already home when we got home. </p> <p>Now, we have a small apartment so it's not hard to come greet one another. We get really excited to see each other anyway (vom, I know) so it's pretty natural for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71601 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:10:58 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 71601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I greet him at the door on the days that I'm not picking him up from work. I'm usually working in the kitchen when he comes home. The back door opens into the breakfast nook so there would be no way I could miss him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71565 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:48:46 +0000 DillonLion 71565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We commute to work together! So I can't really answer this question :) But we kiss hello and goodbye when I get in/out of the car before and after work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71559 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:45:58 +0000 tequiero21 71559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i usually greet him at the door. if he's home first, he doesn't usually greet me lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71547 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:35:44 +0000 MsMamaBear 71547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, always. Usually with Baby Bear if she isn't sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71537 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:27:20 +0000 heffalump 71537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A lot of times the dog, lo, and I sit on the front porch to wait for hubby to get home. We never greeted my dad at the door, but I think it's fun to make a big deal when hubby comes home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71530 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:18:48 +0000 chopsuey 71530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I greet him at the top of the stairs </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71526 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:13:40 +0000 Rescuemom10 71526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not usually but sometimes. The dogs do though. Its a mad pack of wagging tails and wiggling butts to anyone who walks in! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71506 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:47:22 +0000 twodoghouse 71506@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not usually, but the dogs always greet us at the door! Sometimes when my husband is late and I'm hungry and don't feel like cooking, I will wait for him with the dogs at the garage door so that the moment he comes inside I can pounce on him and say "Hey, take me out to dinner!" I might try that tonight... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71503 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:44:52 +0000 mediagirl 71503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do greet each other at the door. He usually comes home after me, he will come up to me and give me a kiss....sometimes after greeting the dogs. :) I will do the same for him when I come home. If he's sitting, I just find him and peck him on the head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71502 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:43:48 +0000 Mrsbells 71502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No I just keep doing whatever I'm doing and say hi to him from whereever I am. He will usually say "where are they" referring to me and the baby and I'll be like "we are in here!" with a big smile on my face.<br /> But sometimes he gets home first, so it depends </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71499 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:42:19 +0000 prettylizy 71499@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We carpool most days, so we get home at the same time. If we take seperate cars and I beat him home, usually I'm making dinner by the time he gets in. I'll usually tip our dogs off that 'daddy's here' if I see him pull in so they'll go sit in the window and watch him walk up our driveway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71486 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:18:36 +0000 Andrea 71486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. I don't even know when he gets in the door. I am normally in the family room by the time he gets home and I can't hear what is going on by the front door from there. And the LO is always asleep so she can't greet him. But it will be a nice habit to form once she has a later bedtime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71481 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:13:18 +0000 yoursilverlining 71481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no, but the cat always greets us at the door!!!! If you take too long getting from car to door, you can hear her wailing at the door for you to hurry up and get inside. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71477 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:11:18 +0000 Rubies 71477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When hubs comes home, he always walks in and says, "Cello..." (play on "hello")...Then I say, "Hi ho-neeeeee"...and meet him at the coat rack in the front hall. </p> <p>When I was growing up, we had to go greet my dad at the door. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/spinoff-do-you-greet-your-so-at-the-door-when-they-arrive-home-and-vice-versa#post-71473 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 16:07:48 +0000 mrbee 71473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my dad came home, we would all greet him at the door. I would hang up his coat, and the other kids would put away his shoes and umbrella.</p> <p>When I come home from work, the cat greets me. Or usually I've picked up Charlie from daycare, and when we get home he starts running around and the cat hides.</p> <p>Do you greet your SO at the door when they arrive home (or vice versa)? Or if you both work, do you guys greet each other? </p>
