Date Night:: It's Love


My littlies have gone for the week up to visit my Mum and Dad. They were BUSTING to go. They love spending time with my Mum and Dad. And I cried.

I welcome the chance for date night, but the house is unusually quiet, and life feels awfully empty without my smalls.

We've called. We've Skyped. I've missed them. I've even kind of missed Tiny's midnight visits.

Nevertheless, Matt and I have enjoyed hanging out together. Date night. Dinner at Fratelli Fresh, meandering the streets afterwards. Window shopping after the shops are all closed. Chatting. Hanging out in book shops. Curling up on the couch watching a movie uninterrupted. An impromptu dinner in the city together.

Tomorrow the little peeps come home and I'm so excited to be spending all weekend with them. I can't flipping wait.

Before we went away we were on a very strict spending plan to save for our holiday so didn't do date night much. A few days before we left Corey said to me that when we get home we should start doing date night once a week. We are going to start next week! I am so excited. I know with the wedding coming up and plans to have kids it won't last too long but date night will be awesome while it lasts.

Nor, how lovely that the smalls had such a great getaway!

And glad you had some lovely time with Matt. Cafe Sopra/Fratelli is a family favourite. The ragu bolognaise is out of this world!

Have a super weekend xxx

Cried? Really you must be a nicer mumma than me. I'd be crying for sure but they would be TEARS OF JOY from a night or two off the hook and on my own (or with the husb...oh to read a book or have an uninterrupted shower/sleep).....bliss! Green with envy
