In Character... As Promised!

Troy and I are not nearly as expressive as Topher {he's a theater director and an acting coach, so what do you expect?!} but we had fun play acting regardless.

Keep in mind that I am 8 months pregnant, unglamorous, chunky, with hair undone and a face without make up; but these weren't meant to be glamor shots! Consider yourself warned ;-)

Here are the results *Click on any picture to see larger*:

Stacy said: You and Troy are on a blind date (pretend you don't know each other) and Troy is instantly head over heels, but you are not one bit interested.

This actually would never have happened- on our actual first date we went and got Subway sandwiches, went to a nearby park and ate a picnic lunch under a tree. Troy really did have butterflies and couldn't even finish his sandwich {which if you know Troy is practically unheard of- he loves to eat!}. We talked for a few hours and I didn't check my cell phone once {actually because I didn't have one at the time, but I still would have been focused only on him}!

Jenn said: You're in the delivery room, and lo and behold little Chloe isn't a Chloe at all. She's a Calvin (or some other boy name)!

After I read this scenario, I seriously had a nightmare that night of this exact run down of events! Most of my close friends will know that I was disappointed at first when I found out that Peyton was a boy because I had always wanted a little girl to doll up. {I of course love Peyton to pieces and wouldn't trade him for anything now!} So this time around when the nurse practitioner and the ultra sound technician both said it was a girl, I was a little in disbelief and actually didn't believe it for a while! I had mentally prepared myself for a boy this pregnancy too, so it took a definite change in gears to think in girl mode! And if Chloe had been a boy, she would have been a Colton. :-)

Jessica said: You and Troy just discovered that Peyton made the family breakfast...served on the floor, milk included.

This is really what we would look like- although, depending on the severity of the mess and if Troy wasn't around to help, it might have been a little more on the angry side! Troy really would be laughing because that's what he does whenever Peyton gets into shenanigans. Troy would find it hysterically funny, I would just think about the clean up process!

Aidan said: You walk into your new house to check on progress only to find one of the workmen christening your shiny new, white porcelain toilet. And he was sitting down, not standing up!

Okay, yuck. [Really!]
I give Troy a hard time when he leaves 3 hour stink bombs in our bathroom let alone some foreign behind leaving me housewarming gifts in my new toilet at the house! And that's a sight I really hope I never stumble upon. :-)

Thanks for all of the fun suggestions guys! Maybe we'll do it again sometime if you come up with more!
