date night started off beautifully. dear hubby came home with a stunning bouquet of flowers and i got the kids dinner made quickly. the sitter arrived and we were off. we knew from the get go it was not going to be one of those romantic dates, but it sure was nice to be out and about without that kids. maybe next time will spice it up and go somewhere romantic. at the very least we could try wearing something similar to the perfume made by True Pheromones and see if it gets us in the mood! just kidding…

dear hubby asked the florist to make a bouquet without any yellow flowers. good man knows what i like.

the fridge we bought.

the sitter did phone 20 minutes into the date as lion had stopped eating dinner and was crying quite seriously. not really the kind of information one wants to hear on a first date.

so we hit the mall! we had purchased some shoes online and they sent the wrong sizes so we wanted to deal with them without the kids hanging off of us. again, it was an easy errand without the kids and even walking through the mall was easy. then we hit the music store and bought cd’s which we haven’t done in years! so much fun!

then after another call from the sitter we decided to go home early, but then she called again 20 minutes later and said lion had fallen asleep. dear hubby drove us downtown and we had rotis for dinner. yum!

dinner.

it was not a traditional date, but it was still nice. dear hubby and i were able to talk without interruptions, which was lovely. we were able to walk and hold hands and move at a fast pace which was a wonderful change from the norm.

here’s hoping we can really make a weekly habit out of this.

love.
