Tim and I have not had any alone time in eight months. So on Saturday we sent the princess to be with Grandma for a few hours so we could go out on a date. How refreshing! While I love my baby girl more than life, it was so nice to go out with my husband and not have to worry about her for a few hours. We didn't do much...dinner and grocery shopping. Ha! Grocery shopping is actually considered a date when you have a baby. Little did I know. But it was wonderful.
Over the last few weeks I had started to feel distanced from Tim. This seemed to make it better. I felt reconnected and refreshed. So now I'm on a mission. Once a month (at least) I plan to make an unbreakable date with my husband. No baby. No worries. I feel like our marriage needs it. And ultimately Reagan needs it, too. She needs parents who are happy and stable and loving. We have to take care of our relationship just as much as we take care of her. It's what makes a happy family unit. I can't wait to see how it improves our family!
