Baby Freedom :)

So, I just popped into my email, and found an invitation to view a website from a couple we met on our honeymoon - Dave & Alyssa. Why is this relevant?? Well.....

Rob and I missed dinner the first night, in the restaurant on the ship - we were exhausted, and just ate at the buffet and went to bed. On the cruise, they assign dinner seatings, but if you miss it there's always the buffet. The second night, we decided to try out the restaurant, when we got there, we met a wonderful couple from California. They were also on their honeymoon and remarkably like Rob and I - but to be honest, I think that Dave and I were more personality alike, and Rob and Alyssa - poor Rob and Alyssa had to deal with Dave and I the whole time LOL

Anyways, we hit it off immediately, and they became friends - it was nice to have another couple we related to, in our age bracket, that was so much fun! And wouldn't you know it - they wanted kids too, and we're planning on trying right away. We had more in common than we thought!

So, our running joke - or at least one of them, was: First to get pregnant gets to name their baby "Baby Freedom", in honour of the Carnival Freedom Cruise Ship.

So, fast forward to the email invitation to their website - they're pregnant too! Due only a week or two after us - so, lets raise a glass (or a couple bottles of wine, each) to Dave and Alyssa: Congrats on Baby Freedom!
