date night

last night my mom agreed to watch Zephyr while we went out for a while.
we went out to dinner, and were going to come home and take a nap before picking him up, but instead we decided to go grocery shopping. grocery shopping on date night? that never used to happen but we're starting to see that if we don't utilize our time correctly we'll never get anything done.
i kind of miss when we used to go out to dinner, talk about what we had done at work or at school (when we were going), then go to a movie, then maybe go for drinks before making out in his car. lol
but that was before we moved in together, got engaged, and had the baby. it seems like an entire lifetime ago. we're no longer single, childless people. now we are parents so, our date night went like this:
- dropped off the baby
- talked about the baby on the way to dinner
- ate dinner really fast because we were starving (its really hard to fix something to eat while trying to keep a baby from crying, so by 5pm we still hadnt eaten anything even though we got up at around 10am)
- talked about how much we missed the baby on the way back from dinner
- went grocery shopping
- put up groceries and hung out for 15 minutes
- picked up the baby
- spent most of the night trying to get the baby to sleep


i did get a few good night kisses, so i guess the evening wasn't a total bust.
*sigh*
i feel like a mom now!
