Last night, Joe and I went out for a date night. Not just a "hey can someone watch our kid so we can go grab some dinner alone" date, but an actual honest to goodness date. As in, I actually curled my hair and put on make-up *gasp*. We met up with another couple from my mom's group and saw a movie then went out for some food & drinks (well not for preggo Danielle & I)afterwards.
As we were getting ready to take Julianna to her Aunt Sandy's for the evening, I realized the last time we had been to a movie was before I was even pregnant with Julianna, over 2 years ago. Then I thought even harder and decided the last movie we actually saw in a theater was Pirates of the Caribbean: The World's End. Yep, 2 years ago. It's been 2 years since we went out with the sole purpose being that Joe and I have fun doing adult things.
Now we have had plenty of chances to do some adult only things, but they always have a not so fun purpose. The last time Julianna was babysat was 2 weeks ago and her grandma K watched her so we could clean the garage. Not exactly the fun you could consider a date.
So last night was a nice change of pace & we're hoping to have more date nights soon. If we don't get out now with only 1 kid, what are we going to do come spring when we have 2 of them?
Good for you! How sad is it that the last movie I remember seeing in the theater was Disney's Cars.. Yeah over 3 years. We did go out to dinner when my mom and dad where up last month and that was awesome! I hope you two get out some more before the baby gets here! :)
