Weekend Update

So Brian and I finally had a chance to celebrate our 4-year wedding anniversary on Friday (our anniversary was the 21st). We started it off by feeling incredibly old: Up until that point we had used friends/family for babysitting on the rare occasions we’ve had the chance to go out. Well this time we hired a real babysitter. After I left her all the instructions and emergency contact information, showed her around the house, introduced her to our remotes, etc., we left. After we closed the door and started the walk to the car I said, "omigod, we are officially old." I remember when IIIIIII was the babysitter and I thought the people I babysat for were so old! *sigh* It was bound to happen, I guess.

And then after all that, the babysitter stole our remote! Saturday morning Brian went downstairs to watch some TV and he couldn’t find it anywhere. About ½ hour later our phone rang. It was our babysitter who was so embarrassed because she had just found our remote in her purse! We got a good laugh out of it.

Anyway, we had a very nice date. We went to dinner and then saw "Fantastic 4." It was OK. Brian liked it better than the 1st one, I liked the 1st one better. It was really nice to get out to the movies again. We used to go to movies ALL THE TIME and I think the last time we went was in March. We’ve been deprived!

And because our date was on Friday night we had to move "Friday Night Game Night" to Saturday. They are so fun. We’re becoming obsessed.... We bought 4 more games this weekend!

We also bought baby gates this weekend. Chase is now becoming more mobile. Not only is he rolling all over the place, he’s starting to scoot on his stomach and the way he’s bringing his legs under him to push off made us realize, "Wow, crawling is not too far away!" Time to start the "baby proofing" process around the house!

Last night Soapbox had our first night of auditions for our next show and we had a pretty good turnout. 1 more night of auditions to go and then we can cast the show and start rehearsals next week! Hard to believe we’re about to do this again!

I think that’s it for our weekend update. Hope everyone else had a great one!
