October 12 = Date Night

Gramps & Mimi kept all the kids tonight for us and Zachary and I went clothes shopping and then to dinner at Coddington Brewery.  I got a Bellini- how pretty!

July 21 = Last Date Night

First, here's a picture of my favorite pair of sisters in the world:

Today, a new set of movers came to pack up all our furniture and the boxes!

Kayleigh did a great job of relaxing in her swing with all the moving madness around her.

We had our last date night before the big move- we went to Park Tavern- yum yum yum.  This was called a frose- frozen rose.

July 13 = Date Night

So this is a post with no theme at all... here's just some pictures from today!

Such a big helper:

 Eating lunch is hard:

We got to go out.  This is sad but I can't tell you where this is- don't remember it at all and it's only been two months...

She's thinking...

Saw this and laughed out loud- the cat looks more like Joey but has more of Marley's mentality I think.

And a convenient explanation for why I can't remember the date pictured above...

June 5 = Date Night!

Kayleigh's bow came today!

Also, the kids' favorite child care worker at the gym sends me pictures every once in a while- I'm not a snapchat user but she sent me these snapchat pictures with funny filters- gotta love them.

Zachary and I got to go out on a date tonight!  Last time we went out, we left the dog at home and in the crate and she was up all night so we looked for somewhere to eat where we could take Miss Rosie with us.  She was a hit!

Also, for your entertainment- here's a video of the kids singing along with a video from this Youtube channel that Liam's teacher used in ECI- she sent home a list of things they used throughout the year so I pulled it up on the TV and it may be one of the best things I've ever done as a parent... great entertainment for them and for me!

April 19 = Rough OT Day

So as I was getting the kids into the building for Liam's OT appointment, I noticed Liam was wearing his big brother shirt and Malia was wearing her big sister shirt.  This was not intentional but I thought it was cute!

Malia is starting to really question why Liam gets to go into the fun rooms for his appointments and she has to sit outside in the waiting room.  Today, she was distraught about it.  When Liam came out of his appointment, she snuck in and had her own fun.  She did not want to leave.  And this almost 8 months pregnant mama didn't have the easiest time persuading her otherwise.  I called Zachary on the way home and told him I'm never doing that again.  From now on, if I don't have help with Malia, I'm canceling his appointment.  

I was very excited that Zachary and I had a date night planned after the nightmare of OT.  We went to Chart House on the water in Annapolis- very pretty and very yummy!  I also snapped a picture of the baby bump because I'm starting to realize it won't be there for much longer...

January 30 = Date Night

Mo asked us a few weeks ago when a good time for her to come up to Maryland would be.  We immediately responded- this weekend would be great!  We love to have the grandparents up to spend time with them and for them to spend time with the kids.  We got a bonus tonight though in that Grandma turned into babysitter and Zachary and I got to go out on a date!

We had dinner at Brio and then went to Target... because Target makes everything better... and we went to a hiking store... Eastern Mountain Sports?  I can't remember what it's called but Zachary loves it.  It was so nice to get away for a few hours and be able to have a conversation without it being interrupted.  Oh and to go out to eat and not have to be stressed the whole time- that was really nice too!
