Tomorrow

Tomorrow (Monday 7/16) is our 2nd anniversary!

Last year we spent our anniversary in NYC, visiting a friend, eating at Nathan's on Coney Island, and spending way too much $ on steak at Ruth's Chris Steak House (the best we've ever had...we can't wait until the one in Middleton opens!)

This year, because of my condition, we couldn't travel quite so far from home. So we went to Fitchburg and Middleton. (If you're not familiar with the area...I actually work in Middleton. It's pretty close!) Anyway, we went to see Harry Potter 5 on the IMAX and it was GREAT! We both really enjoyed it. We then went to Hooter's for dinner. I'd never been there, and the food was really good. Of course after all the movie goodies, I wasn't too hungry, but I ate it anyway! Still not very hungry, we went to Coldstone Creamery for dessert. I'm glad I only got a "like it"! It was a beautiful night and we sat outside to eat...it really was perfect. To be completely honest, there was no real "reason" for us to get a hotel room just 25 minutes from our house, but we did. I've always thought of it as a bit of a luxury...so my husband booked us a room. I probably would choose otherwise next time I'm 9 months pregnant. It just wasn't comfortable sleeping (as always lately) and my husband forgot his breathing machine so he snored all night! But, we were close to some shopping, so I got to buy some "necessary" goodies this morning. (I'm making the birth announcements myself, and had to buy some supplies!)

Anyway, on our way home he said "Do you have the Lowe's gift card with you?" and I said "No, but we can go get it!" So we headed home to grab it and found my goodies from Babycenter had come...a monitor, baby bjorn and bf'ing pillow among other things. So exciting! In the meantime, my husband's mom called to ask us over for dinner tomorrow night.

We headed out for Lowe's (the closest is over an hour from home) and used our gift card to get a smoke/carbon monoxide detector and some other stuff.

Heading back home, we stopped at Fuddrucker's for lunch/dinner. I love that place, and the one closest to my house CLOSED. I was mad about that.

Anyway, it's not NYC, but it was a pretty good anniversary weekend overall!
