Jacobs First Date

Monday 17, 2009
So this was Jacobs first official date. I met his date at a bird family function the day before. We were celebrating Tiffanys homecoming. Her name is Shannon and she is working on her Masters and she is only 20. She is really an awesome girl.
This was probably one of the most fun dates I have been on. We went to craigos and sat in a booth. Then we all loaded up our plates and had a speed round of eating. So everyone had 10 secs to eat as much as they could and then pass the plate to their left.
After that we tied our hands to each others and had to feed the other person. This included giving them a drink or wiping their face is they needed it. This is a great ice breaker for first time daters=) Then with hands still tied we got up and loaded more food onto our plates. Then instead of sitting across from each other we sat next to the person that we were tied with. Dallin and I were having a pretty good time.
Finally our wrist started hurting so we untied our selves and got up to get dessert pizza. We pulled out our game of Fact or crap and if you answered the questions right you got to take a bit of your pizza. Shannon won. Jake had two slices and it was a close second between him and Dallin and I was dead last. Its ok because I am not a huge fan of dessert pizza. After that everyone felt huge and fat. Dallin went to go play frisbee, i fell asleep on the couch watching a show about people that carve flowers out of fruit (amazing by the way, food channel) and Jake and Shannon went to play frisbee golf. It was a fun night. I am glad we got to go on a double with jake, he is an awesome guy!

Afton loves Dallin

Afton was sitting on Tads lap with her hand resting on Dallins elbow. I took this picture at the perfect moment when she turned to look at Dallin and smile. She loves Dallin. her most favorite thing to do is take off his sandals and either try to put the back on his feet or figure out how to put them on hers. She is so cute!!!!

MOVING!!

Dallin and i are moving into a two bedroom apartment across town and we are both really excited for the new apartment but also very sad to leave the one we are in now. It has been a great first apartment to us. To bad Garrison will never be able to use the room that i spent hours scrubbing the floors. =) The good news is that we will live right around the corner from Tad and Cara which i am most excited about. Especially to hang with Cara all the time. Sorry Tad you will be at work. I am sure I will see you every now and then. shesh. Anyways we still have lots more to pack which freaks me out. i didnt realize how much stuff(crap) we had. My plan is to declutter before Garrison makes his way out which I think will be soon since I have been having contractions for the past two weeks! Cross your fingers.

Contractions

Today was the first day that i can remember that I have been able to feel any type of contrations at all. I guess i was just being paranoid, because i am to the point to have the baby but after having contractions all day i kinda freaked out. It hasn't been anything big I am sure they are just the Braxtyn Hicks contractions, but it was a little to real for me. Anyways I just wanted to make a note of this for myself as well as for those that like to read and follow along on my blog. No new pictures to put up yet. We dont take enough pictures around here I guess.

This past week i worked a ton which could be another reason why my body was having those contrations. Stress!!!!!! Anyways i am excited to not be working full time anymore! I can't wait for Garrison to come!!

The "IHOP Experience"

So for those that were at Ihop after we picked Jacob up here is how it was all resolved. Both headquarters and the store owner apologized sincerely. The funny thing is that Dallins dad came into town this weekend and really wanted to go to Ihop. This experience was 100% better. I did learn one thing from the whole experience. Never order specials from the stupid blackboard.
