Yesterday was Daryl and my 5th year anniversary... crazy! The time has flown and yet it seems like I have known him forever, which is really cool. We had a fairly low key evening and yet it was just perfect (accept for the potatoes:-( ). We fed Hannah her dinner separately and then Daryl put her to bed at 7 while I cook our anniversary dinner... grilled fresh salmon with garlic mayo sauce, asparagus with a cream sauce, roasted potatoes and for dessert... cake! It was VERY yummy if I do say so myself, but even more than the food was the fact that we actually got to have a quiet conversation, eating at our own pace without 5000 questions. I love our daughter, but it is nice to have a chance just to talk to one another without her darling little voice. The rest of the evening was more of the same... conversation. I didn't realize how much I missed that. We are always asking ourselves what we did before Hannah was born. I think part of the answer is just talk to each other. Mental note... do this again:-)!
Follow-up on Baby Grover ~ everything look really good! He/she is measuring exactly where she/he should be. In fact, the ultrasound tech estimated the baby was already 7 lb 6 oz. That is one ounce smaller than Hannah was when she was born... 9 days late! I'm hoping we go a little early, although it would be nice to have at least one more week before the baby is born. God knows and I'm trying to trust Him!

Happy Anniversary! Wow! Five years already!
It was really strange being away from the kids for a weekend not too long ago while we attended a friends wedding and celebrated our 9th. Leisurely meals, feeding only ourselves, carrying only a purse, and lots of uninterrupted conversation...it was so quiet sometimes it almost felt wrong! Ha Ha. But a definate MUST DO AGAIN!
Happy Anniversary! We'll call this weekend to catch up.
