Jimmy Fallon Game Night!

Today I’m SUPER excited to talk to you about my all time favorite game night activity we've ever had... and we have the awesome Jimmy Fallon to thank for that.  Jimmy Fallon Game Night! If you are not a night owl or if you aren't on social media, you are probably unaware of the many clever games Jimmy plays with his guest stars. You poor poor deprived person! These aren't just silly/lame games he plays. These games are hilariously EPIC.  This is actually the second time my friends and I have planned this activity for our husbands because seriously... it’s so much fun and its definitely not your typical dinner and a movie date night.

Thanks for watching!

It went so smooth in fact, that I feel a little silly writing a 'birth story' when it wasnt anything but peaceful. But then maybe a reader out there needs to hear how awesome childbirth can go so.... here ya go!  With this being our third go around, our doctor approved us to be induced a week early. The timing was perfect as Gavin's mom is a teacher in Utah and it was her spring break. She flew in on Monday April 4th and watched the girls for us when we went in early Tuesday morning to start the process. We arrived and they got us all set up in a jiffy. I wasn't dilated much but was about 90% effaced. The pitocin was given and we were instructed to just wait. Can I just say how awesome it is to just hang out in a quiet hospital room with your hubby?! We ate popsicles, watched our latest Netflix tv show obsession (White Collar. Um... LOVE!) We discu...
