Just One Birthday Girl

My twenty second birthday came and went without the arrival of our little one.  Sharing a birthday month is new to me but to share the day too was going to be too much 😉  I think Jacob would have enjoyed the joke so he took me out bowling for my birthday.  We found a wonderful little duckpin alley is West Haven.  The balls aren’t bigger than a shotput and the pins are like 1/3 the size of normal pins.  Jacob had never enjoyed this New England treasure and he knows how much I love games.

We spent the evening watching a child of one of our favorite couples so they could have a date night.  Jacob had fun testing out his new lens on a moving object, even if it seemed impossible to get a non-blurry picture.  The little girl is just an angel and was very good at getting out of going to bed by giving out don’t-put-me-down-or-I-will-die grips hugs, so we just played all evening.  What a blast!  Jacob is so ready to be a daddy, I see it all the time now.  I’m just trying to enjoy these last few diaper-free moments of this stage of my life, plus unlike Jacob, I get to be with our little girl all day long and don’t feel the need to separate just to meet her.  But that day is coming soon, I can hardly believe it to be honest.  But duckpin bowling didn’t do the trick, sorry Jacob, you’ll just have to wait on her schedule.
