steve and i went on a date this weekend. i hesitate to even tell you how long it’s been since just he and i did that–especially for two people who dated regularly before a baby. ok fine, i’ll tell you! this is the first since parker’s been born (!!!!). (this one might’ve been the last one?) i know, i know. it’s ridiculous. there are a million reasons, though none seem that important when it’d been as long as it had. we got in the car and looked at each other like, “WHAT THE HELL ARE WE DOING THIS IS AWESOME.” like maybe we were two people hoppin’ in our runaway car to take off for the great unknown with a car full of cash? actually what i really did say to him as we drove away was, “oh you!! you’re the guy that i made that baby with!” i remembered that i am not just a milkmaid but a lady! a wife! i even wore heels! and lipstick! and yeah, i might’ve kept a close eye on the phone in case i got a call to come home because parker was awake and being all demanding as babies can be, but no call came. it was just the two of us enjoying one another’s company. so, i guess the benefit in waiting forever to go on a date post-baby is that you’re realllllllly excited when that date comes.
it was awesome. i really love that man.
(and, on a much smaller scale, i really love that sweater.)
dates are so important but its hard to find the time. I love that sweater! where you ever a model? you could be one. 🙂
Glad you guys were able to get out on a date 🙂
I went to the link for the jeans (love them – they look great) and they were sold out. Bummer!

@emily baker, being a nanny there was prob a treat — such a nice place! (and you know, i may just take you up on that some day!)
Hooray for you two! Don't have babies yet- but I think the thing I will miss most is date night (and probably sleep)! Oh, I love that sweater too!
i have been lusting over this sweater for ages. i may have to get it for myself as a little christmas gift. and yay to the date night! xo
You guys are just the cutest with your date night. And that sweater is divine.
this is going to be me and my mr 🙂
Hooray for date night. Mark and I do not go on enough dates. You and Steve were always great at going on dates. Get back on that horse lady.
Also, I blogged about the exact same sweater today on my Nine to Five blog: http://style9to5.blogspot.com/
YAY! So glad you guys got some alone time. Hope it was a marvelous time. 🙂
oh my goodness, you guys. get in that getaway car more often:-) xoxo
Dates are so needed! It took forever for my husband and I to go on a date after my daughter was born. First, it was just too hard to get away with the incessant nursing and her constant need for us. Then, I was ready but we couldn't find a good babysitter. We finally found one who is awesome and for the last few months, we've been able to go on a monthly date. It's been great! We're soon going on our first overnight date since our daughter was born (she's 18 months now) to celebrate our anniversary. I'm excited! We are having another baby in a few months so we'll probably be stuck at home again for awhile. Makes me appreciate these dates even more!
thank GOODNESS you guys finally had a sexy date!!
i had to throw in the word sexy. because im sure it was. its you and steve after all.
I swear you guys are the sweetest couple. And you look totally hot in that sweater.
so glad you guys got out.
obsessed with your sweater! so glad you guys FINALLY got a date night! i hope he called before the 3 day rule, it's a stupid rule, i hate that rule 😉
