Dean & I had the best “date” last night. I have been really trying to make sure we dont come home from work and fall straight into bed from exhaustion, although I’d love to, but that always makes for a long miserable night for me. So I have been trying to make sure we always have plans or at least something to do outside of the house, even if it is running to the grocery store for a little bit. So last night, I amazed even myself and made a very nice ravioli dinner, and it was ready shortly after Dean arrived home from work, which is another miracle in and of itself because we usually argue over what to have for dinner because I am usually too tired to cook. So as I was finsihing up preparing dinner I called to get movie times and told Dean what was playing. We decided to go see the new Jurassic Park movie, even though neither of us remember seeing the second one. And I didn’t realize til after the fact that the movie just came out yesterday, so here we are planning on going to see a movie the night it comes out, I was impressed with our plans. And after seeing the movie I was glad we went. It wasn’t anything great, but it was worth going to see, but it seemed short, Dean says it’s because the ending comes to quickly, you are expecting more and then it’s over. And after researching the matter, of course he came home and checked it out online, but this movie was shorter than the first two Jurassic Park movies.
So we had fun, ate way too much popcorn and let me tell you, if you really want to sit through a movie during your last month of pregnancy do not order a drink! I was so mad at myself, we went to see Shrek about a month ago now and I made myself sit through it, holding til the very end my urge to run to the bathroom, but there was no holding back last night, I didnt want to miss anything but Caleb kept moving around and I already had a full bladder so I had to run out to the bathroom. But it wasn’t one of those movies that you miss too much – thank goodness. But I was still frustrated with myself, I should have known better than to try to drink and sit through the movie.
After the movie ended, to our amazement it was only around 9:00 and still light out so we called Dean’s sister to see if we could go over for a swim. By the time we got there the sun was setting and the water was getting chilly, but the half hour or so we spent swimming did wonders for me! I felt really good afterward. Then we hung out with them for a while, and their 6 kids, new puppy, and 2 hamsters! Now that’s a full house!
By the time we got home it was 11:30 and I was ready for bed, and it didnt take long for me to doze off. All in all I’d say we had a great night. Thanks Dean! It’s so nice to still go on dates with the man you love. Yes, okay, I have been smitten by the love bug lately, but I have found myself so much more in love with my husband over the last few weeks, I dont doubt it has something to do with the hormones, but who cares, I am loving every minute we get together, even if there are only a few more weeks of peace and quiet together. Tonight I think we are going to the Warren County Fair, hopefully it wont be too hot out today.
I have my ultrasound and an afternoon dr’s appointment today, I’ll fill in later how it all went…..
