Dating

I truly don't envy people who are still in the 'single & dating' phase of life. It was great while it lasted, but the kind of dating I prefer is with my one true love and best friend! We haven't always been too good at getting out, but we've recommitted ourselves and are loving it! It's refreshing to have a conversation with each other before it's so late that we're both tired. And eating dinner without having to get up 16 times or prod a child to eat for 30 minutes, is quite a treat! This month we've averaged 1 date a week-WOW- lucky us!!

HOW FUN! What a great idea and so important. It's always nice to know that you still have things to talk about when you aren't swarmed by children. :)

Cute picture of you two. That's so great that you've made it a priority and have stuck with it.

You keep going on those dates! They will be few and far between in a few months.

That is awesome Em. We try to go out once a week too. :) I agree with ya on being with your one true love and best friend!! It's so much better than the dating games.

Good for you guys. I also DO NOT miss dating. It is so nice to be past that stage in life. If Kevin goes first, I think I'll just die alone instead of trying to date again.

Woo-Hoo, dates are fun. I'm glad you've been able to do them. Lucky gal :)

It totally agree! We really don't have the money to go ut all the time and pay for a babysitter. And we don't really have any friends here to swap with. So I started watching a neighbor's child in the mornings while she goes to school, I use that money I make to pay for date nights! I have to arrange the babysitter, and activity--but it's worth it! I love going out and having quite time with Bryan--it's so important!

Good for you! We've not been good about dating, but I know it would do us good. Thanks for setting a good example and I hope you continue loving those dates!
