Surprise Date

I love surprises and love when Ryan surprises me with a date I don't know about. Yesterday I was so excited when he said he had a a surprise date. He ended up blind folding me and taking me to Papa Johns (where I haven't ate in about 6 years). We ordered the pizza and came home to find that he had our table with a candle lit dinner.

This is the perfect date for me, he knows me so well! We enjoyed are salad and pizza with some good tunes in the background. He said ok now your job is to go upstairs and get your PJ's on and then come find out the rest of the surprise. So I rushed upstairs and threw on some sweats and came down stairs to find we were going to make homemade popcorn since our microwave hasn't let me pop popcorn since we moved here. :( Our microwave no matter what I do always burns our bags of popcorn. I was so excited that we got to watch a movie together with our first batch of popcorn since we've been married with some oranges :)

Update: Sunday I am 37 weeks yay!

Was that my water breaking?

So today at church I was talking to our neighbor when all of the sudden I felt a trickle of water run down my leg, almost like I was wetting my pants. But I know I don't wet my pants anymore so I went and pulled Ryan out of the nursery where he was substituting. We decided to be on the safe side to go home and call the hospital. Sure enough the hospital asked us to come in and get checked. I was nervous that my water broke because we still have 4 weeks and this would be too early.

They admitted me in and checked things out. Good thing I wasn't in labor quite yet. It was good though to get a tour of the labor and delivery unit where I'll be going so when the time does come I know where I'm going.

On our drive there I couldn't help but realize how fast my life really is changing and how exciting this is. I also am glad I've got this little bit longer before she comes to enjoy it just being Ryan and I.

Car seat sewing project

Yesterday afternoon I got the fabric from my mom in the mail and just finished the car seat cover. So much fun! However, I still need to go buy the elastic to go in the bottom to keep the cover down so the wind can't blow it up. I am definitely not an expert sewer so making this without a pattern involved a lot of unstitching, Lol :) But I'm so excited for my little girl to sit in there in 5 weeks :)

I also had a hard time figuring out how I was going to make the window so I could just lift up the flap and see her without lifting up the whole thing if we're outside in the cold. My slits for the buttons to hold it down were pretty sad but I'm just impressed I did it. Yay :)

Tuesday I also patched Ryan's levi's. I don't know if this is the nesting stage or just having fun with my christmas present but it's so much fun.
