First-Last Date

I have been intending to blog about this for a few weeks...

Before Bean was born, Hubs & I decided that we were going to start going on a date every weekend up until his birth. We made this decision in August and decided to start in September. Bean was DUE to arrive on October 8th. We had our first date planned out. We were going to go to Olive Garden for the amazing "Never Ending Pasta Bowl". For a pregnant momma, this sounded like a dream come true! The first Friday in September was quickly approaching and we were SO excited to start our little pre-baby dates...when I WENT INTO LABOR! Bean was born on the first Thursday of the month, needless to say, we did not make our "first-last date".

Soooo the week of Bean's birthday this year, I went to pick up Hubs for a quick lunch date. We have discovered that lunch dates work FAR better for us than dinner dates. Bean is awake & hungry, lunch is cheaper, and lunch is usually served much faster than dinner. Hubs & I head out for lunch and he takes us to Olive Garden for the Never Ending Pasta Bowl! It was the first Friday in September. While we were eating, we came to the realization that we were actually on our "first-last date". Granted, Bean was with us on the outside and now there is somebody else on the inside...but at least we finally made it on our "first-last date"!
