Date Night.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Jason & I went out to dinner on Saturday. I worked from 7-1pm & soon after we went up the road to see our friend/Matti's godmother. We had a few things we wanted to do as well. Babies R Us is doing their Trade-In event & we were going to get another Britax seat for the new baby. We decided to wait a little bit for it and walked around the store to see if we were interested in anything. Matti kept busy with the toys that were there. We decided to get Matti a toddler bed so that we can get him used to that. His crib converted to a toddler bed, but once the new baby comes, we will need the crib. So, we might as well start the transition to the NEW bed now. They didn't have the one we wanted so they gave us our coupon and told us to go to Toys R Us. Matti was in love with all the toys while we looked to make sure it was what we wanted. After that, we decided to head to Chuck E Cheese! Matti's godmother & another friend were going to stay there with him while we went to dinner. Jason didn't want to miss Matti's first Chuck E Cheese experience so we stayed for a few minutes. He was having such a good time & what was even better is that he got to have his favorite---PIZZA! It was getting close to 7 so we decided to scoot out and head to dinner. At this point, I still had no clue where we were going. Jason reveals that if hadn't eaten chinese the night before, we were going to this little Japanese place. For some reason, I really want sushi so I told him I didn't mind. He said he had another place and we'd grab sushi later on this week. :) Finally, we get there & it was a steakhouse I'd been  dying to go to! So, I was really excited, haha. We had to wait a little, but it was fine since they give you a bag of peanuts to munch on. It was also nice because we were able to just sit and talk. Finally, we got called up and sat down at our table. We already looked at the menu and were ready to order. Jason ordered a steak that we would split and I ordered steak kabobs for us to split as well. And a salad. The service was great and we got our food really fast, but as soon as I got my salad, something didn't agree with Baby Bean. My appetite left and I could only eat a little bit. I figured that I'd be okay once my dinner arrived. Nope. I couldn't handle the smell of my food and I found myself struggling to eat. I had to keep pushing my plate away. I felt so bad! We've been looking forward to date night & I was really looking forward to my steaks, haha. I told Jason to just eat while I tried to hold it together. We left about 10 minutes after we received our food. I kept apologizing to Jake, but he was really sweet about it. I told him that we are not to go on any dates until I have passed the first trimester. We got in the car and he plopped a bag in my lap. I was laying back and didn't realized it was a gift for me. We usually don't get each other gifts for Valentine's or any other holiday so I told him I didn't get a chance to get him anything. I wanted to, but I just haven't found anything. He said it was fine. I started opening it & I finally realize what it is. A DSLR. Anyone that knows me knows that this is something I have been wanting for a very long time. I didn't expect to get it now. All I know is that I'm in love with it and I can't wait to learn how to use it to get the best pictures. I've been playing around with it since I got it. When we picked up Matti, I took a few shots. And also at a bridal shower I was at yesterday. Jason is too good to me :) Matti seemed to have a great time and was pretty exhausted when we got there. He spent most of his tokens on a train game...go figure! We can't wait to take him back.

Lol, I like how you just casually tossed in there at the beginning "once the new baby comes...". Congratulations! :)
