Re: GTKY
1. What is your favorite romantic movie? changed my first answer. How could I forget my favorite is Pride and Prejudice.
2. On a typical night what do you wear to sleep? only panties nothing else. I can't stand feeling wrapped up in pajamas and I would never be able to sleep!
3. When you have a +OPK and its time to make some magic what do you wear to bed? skimpy lingerie/ nightgown/ t-shirt/ nothing at all......? I love lingerie. I think it helps me get in the mood as much as it does DH.
4. Favorite cheap/fun date idea? I've been trying to think of some new ones so I hope to see some good ideas here. DH and I like to go star gazing in the summer with a bottle of wine.Married October 2009. Me 29 H 28.
After 1 year of infertility, our little miracle was conceived via our 3rd IUI on May 5, 2013.

Tank top and underwear, unless I'm cold then pajamas.

We never go on dates. Our idea of date night is renting a movie or watching a few episodes of a tv show on the dvr. I think the last "cheap" fun date we went on was maybe to a museum or the zoo.

Ahhh, sadly we live on opposite sides of the US! I live in Alabama and we are about a 4 hour drive to the beach which is still fairly close, but I'd love to be closer again. I grew up in Panama City Beach, FL and we go back any chance we get.
