Date Night

This weekend we had a fun date night: me and the boys, and Jeff and Little Princess. Big Man's school had their annual night at Classic Skating. I thought it would be fun to take the boys, but didn't want to have to worry about Little Princess there. She'd want to be right in the middle of everything, but she's too little. So Jeff took her on her first daddy-daughter date.

We told Little Princess about it earlier in the day that only her and dad were going on a date. She thought about it for a minute and then said-I'm so excited. It was cute. It's funny to see her little mind working sometimes. They ended up going to the mall to ride the carousel, window shopping, eating some pizza, and then to feed the fish at Cabela's. Jeff said she was so funny walking in the mall. She really liked the jewelry and shoe stores-what girl doesn't right? She had a fun time. When I was a little girl and went on daddy-daughter dates, my mom would tell me as we left-no kissing. So of course before we left the driveway, I would kiss my dad. I did the same thing with Little Princess. I told her no kissing, so of course she gives Jeff a kiss. She definitely loves her daddy.

The boys loved their night at Classic Skating. It sure has changed a lot since I was a kid. You can now ride scooters on the skating rink. That's what we did since I didn't want to deal with skates. The boys had a blast. There were several friends from our ward and from Big Man's school, so they had fun keeping up with them. After they tired of their scooters, we went and played games for a while and then ended the night in the bounce area. They'd come check in with me where I was sitting and they were all sweaty and out of breath. They were playing hard. It was a fun night.

Saturday night Jeff and I watched the movie Inception. I'd heard how good it was from several people. I enjoyed it, but WOW. It was pretty intense. I'm not quite sure it's a good movie to watch right before bed AND being 8 months pregnant (when I already have weird dreams). I was up several times with bizarre scenes running through my mind.

It's now Sunday night and the weekend is ending with me catching a cold. When I was pregnant with Little Princess, I had four colds in the first four months of my pregnancy. This time around, I've only had one minor cold-until now. It's gotten worse as the day has progressed. I can hardly breathe I am so stuffy. I've taken a few Sudafed and they help for a while, but then wear off. I just hope this cold passes quickly.
