Date Night!

Last night Dave and I had our first official date night since Little Miss Ivy came along. We left Ivy with Grandma and Grandpa McAllister and headed to the movie theatre to see "Grown Ups". I think the movie was pretty good, however, I was preoccupied with missing my little girl and constantly checking my cell phone even though I knew Grandma had things under control and would never call unless there was an absolute emergency. Dave and I had a nice (although short) date but I was ready to get back to Ivy and give her lots of hugs and kisses as soon as the movie was over. When we got back to Grandma and Grandpa's, I could see Grandma through the window walking around with Ivy in her arms. I knew that meant she was probably fussy. Grandma said she was "a little fussy" but I think she was putting it mildly. I know she'd never tell me otherwise though! I suppose it didn't help that I forgot to bring Ivy's pacifier. I'll chalk that up to the new mommy being sad about leaving her little girl.

Anyways, now that we've passed this milestone, maybe next time we'll do dinner AND a movie. Aaah, how life has changed! :)
