A Surprise Date!

My husband sent me a text message on Thursday afternoon, telling me that I was busy ALL day on Saturday no questions asked. I was soo excited! He knows I love surprises and I had been mentioning that we needed a date.

So today we woke up and had our neighbors over for breakfast. They conveniently have a newborn baby that I got to snuggle with. Then we dropped Isabelle off to Steve's parent's house and our date began!

I kept asking all sorts of questions that he wouldn't answer except to remind me that I wasn't supposed to be asking questions.

First we go out for lunch. Well actually first we drove to the bowling alley which was insanely packed so we deiced to eat lunch first. Anyway he brought me to our favorite Chinese food place. They have excellent food, great service, and it is always really quiet and relaxing when we eat there. Oh and at lunch we talked about when we were going to try for baby #2 and it was earlier then I had expected which is ALWAYS a good thing!

Next, we find a different bowling alley and I bowl terrible and he bowls really stinkin great. We had lots of fun. There was a kids birthday party there and they shared some of their cake and ice cream with us! Yes! Free dessert!

Next, we stopped home and got warmer clothes on and then we went downtown to go ice skating. This was super duper fun! I haven't been ice skating in years! Steve is a pretty good ice skater so he is really fun to watch even though I secretly hope that he falls so I can laugh at him. Ice skating was great it was nice to get exercise while having fun. I ended up running into a little girl and falling on the ice we were both fine and Steve got to laugh at me.

The end of our date was perfect. We picked up Isabelle and we went to the movies. We saw Tangled. It was super cute. And this was Isabelle's FIRST movie. She loved it. Steve knew that I had been dying to take her to the movies but I was trying to wait until her 2nd birthday. It was really wonderful.

I had such a great time on my surprise date and I love my husband so much. I feel so loved and appreciated that he would take the time to think about me and what I want to do and plan a whole day for me. I am the luckiest girl in the world!

  2. There has been some talk about this August but we will see. That would put the baby due near June so I would have finished both semesters of student teaching and graduated and hopefully landed a job. The landing a job part could be difficult seeing as I would be 5 or 6 mths preggo when I graduate. I'm not so sure employers are looking to hire a new teacher who is 6 mths pregnant in the middle of the school year.

    Previously when Steve and I talked about it we talked about the following August so when we were at lunch the other day and he mentioned trying for baby #2 this August I was pretty shocked. But our neighbor just had a baby and I think he has baby fever. :-)
