saturday nights are not what they used to be

in Parenting after a Loss

it's funny that it no longer matters if it is a weeknight or a weekend.  we pretty much just sit around on the couch regardless.  kind of makes me sad that we can't just go out (to dinner, movies, etc.) like we used to. 

(not that i'd trade having hadley for any amount of nights out, i just feel a bit stir crazy lately).

what's everyone up to tonight?

    I am just hanging out tonight with Jax....Scott is going to a poker tournament so I will be drinking wine, nesting, and possibly watching a chick flick! :)

    Scott and I did our fare share of partying up until getting pregnant so staying home and relaxing is a welcomed change for us. :)

    Home alone, DD is asleep already, and I'm avoiding my ex on facebook. He always IM's me if he sees that I'm on.

    May, I felt incredibly stir-crazy the first two months.  Eventually, you guys should see if you can find a good sitter to watch little Hadley so you can go out... have dinner, catch a movie.  It's amazing what a night out of the house does for the soul.

    We're not doing anything tonight.  DH is at a brownie dance with his daughter, so it's just Maya and I solo.  My dad might stop by for a bit.

    DH isn't feeling well tonight - so I think we're going to camp out in the bed with the baby and a movie (and our laptops).

    I'm going to finish the baby booties for Avery tonight too

    Nothing but watching tv. I thought today would have been a great day to get out, but DH was to comfy on the couch :(

    We just finished dinner...DH made a nice home cooked meal, which are definitely hard to come by these days.  We are going to put Emma to bed in a bit and then will probably just relax and watch some tv.

    Yes, the beginning is just sitting around on the couch feeding the baby, isn't it? LOL, I watched so much tv and read so many books when we first brought Aidan home because all I did was feed him bottles and let him sleep on me :)  It's really easy to take a newborn out to dinner and a movie, though, since they're so portable and sleep so much, so don't feel like you can't do that stuff!
