date night

Last weekend, Cindi and I took turn's watching each other's kids so that we could have a date night with our husbands. Jason and I did dinner and a movie (not all that creative, but we've only been to one adult movie since Abby was born, so it was a big treat for us). It was a weird feeling not having the little ones around. Just getting in and out of the car without unloading two children is strange. We went to Chili's for dinner and they're doing a fundraiser for St. Jude's hospital, so they had these papers with a big chili pepper and you could buy the paper (the money goes to st. judes) and color it and they hang it on their walls. We were laughing because we finally got away from kids, but what did we do? We spent the whole time in the restaurant coloring. Then we went to the movies and I wanted a coffee from their little cafe, but it wasn't opened yet. We asked an employee when the coffee shop opened and she looked at us funny and said "uh, thats been closed for about 2 years".(how old is Abby??) So, we're watching the movie and I'm loungin' back and all of a sudden the movie got really loud...I jumped up to grab the remote before it woke up the girls upstairs....Did I mention its been a really really long time since we've been to a movie?

The next night it was our turn to watch the kids and Cindi and Calvin had an event that didn't get over until midnightish so it was almost like Abby's first sleepover. She was really excited about Kennedy and Gavin sleeping at her house.

Of course they played dress up most the night. Thats what these two girls do best.
We made some pizza, played candyland (sort of) and then before bed they got to watch the little mermaid. They didn't move from this position the whole movie.
Passed out!
Jayda is officially crawling now and of course she's everywhere. Abby isn't so happy about this new freedom she has. Now Jayda can is always getting Abby's books, toys, food, ect... She can't do anything without Jayda in the middle of it. Jayda loves her big sister and always wants to be doing what she's doing.

The other day Jayda woke up from her nap and when I went to get her in her crib, there she was standing up. So weird to see her like that. But since then she's been pulling up on everything. Here's pics of her and Abby playing in the crib.
