First Date Again :)

Yesterday, Eddie and I went on our first date since we had our baby boy five and a half months ago. The last date we had was on our first year anniversary about a week before I gave birth. For some people dates after having children might be the last thing on their minds. But for us, we made a promise that no matter how many children we have or how old we get to be that we have to make an effort in our relationship and to not fall into the trap of a "redundant marriage."

We've always had this tradition of lunch/dinner and a movie. Very cliche, but it's something we enjoy doing together. We attempted to do this movie lunch/dinner and a movie after my confinement. But Zafry was too young and couldn't be too far away from us for too long. However, since Zafry is older and is more comfortable with Mama, Papa, Kakak and the kids, we decided a movie marathon was in order.

We decided to watch Sherlock Holmes 2 and Mission Impossible 4. And decided not to take any chances and bought the tickets on Thursday after work even though we were planning to go on Saturday. We chose Sherlock Holmes 2 at 11.10am then Mission Impossible 4 at 3.20pm. That way we'd have time to have lunch and walk around between the two movies.

When we sat for the first movie, I looked around and saw younger couples, obviously on their first few dates. The way they talked and giggled... hey, I was once that girl too a few years ago. I wondered...if people were to look at us, would they know that we have a five and a half month old baby boy patiently waiting for us? I asked Eddie and he replied, "I don't give a shit what they think." Hahaha...true. As long as we're happy :)

Lunch after the first movie - Happy :)
