Our first date night of 2012 . I hope to have more of these to keep on top of our hopes , dreams and tasks for the year .
First of all for all you alittle comparsion on what date night means with children and without children .Ready for a laugh or two .
Date Night with Children now means
-lining up a babysitter willing to watch three children or four if everyone is home .
-pumping milk so you can leave baby
-having( no joke) the IKEA reusable bag full of stuff such as bottles and baby cereal etc , pj's, extra panties for girlie in potty training, bibs, lotions as my children have sensitive skin , inhaler , extra winter clothes , skate bag for oldest lessons , and list is really quite endless.
-try to find your "good" underwear now ladies with children you know what I mean once that do not have the elastic wore out or ripped , not the maternity once you are still wearing cause they are comfy ,or the ones that are so see through really whats the point . Now for any mother that has children if you have not have this problem when do you find or I guess make the time to shop for under garments cause I must say its my least favorite thing to do .
-taking the breast pump on the date so I am not ready too explode before I get home
-Finding a purse to use on the date as I have been using a diaper bag since well almost four years now
-oh and yes now date night starts at 4:00 so we can beat the crazy supper crowd as I am not good with crowds (point out we are going out Tuesday Night big supper crowd HEHE...)I will also admit that we were at home with kids and in bed and tucking ourselves in by 9:45 pm . Besides little man was fussy so that so not the end of our night but most definitely the end of Date night .
Once we got the kids dropped off must admit it was great night of catching up with the radio off all the way down to Minot . No kids crying or fighting !We enjoyed a great meal at the Olive Garden with dessert . (White chocolate raspberry cheesecake was yummo !!)
I must say after we did drop kids off I may of suggested that we go home and have a quiet nap but glad we didn't . After supper we headed to good ole Target for some much needed underwear sadly no ,but maybe next time . But did get some new workout clothes !So it was nice to not have children with me in the change room though and wandering a round target with two free hands was amazing too !!!
Now to date night before kids .....well usually you don't leave til 9:30ish pm and get home in the am too . Is there such thing as bad under wear then either . Purses match the outfit. Instead of breast pump its usually Push Up bra.
UNTIL next date night.
