Tuesday August 4th was the hubs and my 2 year anniversary. We've been together for 6 years, married for 2 of those. I can't believe it's been that long but at the same time it feels like it's always been him and he's always been there.
As kind of a joke gift I got him a pack of Hanes white t-shirts and a bag of fortune cookies. (The traditional 2nd anniversary present is cotton and the modern is China.) For his "real" present I got him a popcorn popper. Just last week he decided it was better for us if we pop our own popcorn and bought a big bag of seeds, however, we don't have a heavy skillet or whatever type of pan it says to use. This popper is neat because butter sits in the top and melts onto the popcorn while it's popping. When it's done, you put a cover on where the butter was, flip the whole thing over and take off what was the bottom. It is it's own bowl!
Being the wonderful thoughtful guy he is, hubs got me a gift card for an hour long maternity massage at a swanky spa downtown. I'm trying to decide when I want to go. I want to go now but I thought maybe I'd save it for a couple weeks.
They day went well. We slept in and took our time getting ready to go anywhere. We went out to lunch at a cute little cafe not far from our house called The Rosewood. He had a ham and bree sandwich and I had turkey and bree. (I would have preferred ham but ever since I've become pregnant , ham upsets my stomach.) Then we went to Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. I was a bit outraged by the price, $13 per adult, but when we got up to the window the lady asked if we lived in Tacoma. Yes, we do. Andy showed her his drivers licence and I showed her mine and my checks (I haven't gotten a new drivers license since moving to Tacoma but I did change the address on my checks) and we got in for free! Turns out, once a month they have a "Free Tacoma Day" and everyone living in Tacoma gets in for free! That, along with the fact that it seems our heat wave is over and the temperature was pleasant, made it very crowded but we managed to have a good time. After the zoo we had enough time to go home for a couple minutes then head to The Ram for dinner. Hubs belongs to The Mug Club and about 4 times a year they have an event for the members. You get an all you can eat buffet of whatever style of food they decide and your choice of a couple different types of beer all of $10 each. We met our friends Rob and Amy there. We all had a good time. 2 guys couldn't tell I was pregnant until I turned sideways. They kept talking about it after I walked away from them, laughing.
OFF SUBJECT: Oh, in Target the other day I had one lady tell me I've very cute pregnant and another tell me I'm adorable with my little belly.
