Kevin and I had a great night. "Grandma Debbie" came over to babysit and we went out to dinner and a movie. We decided on Harry Potter, having missed other movies we would have liked to have seen (primarily "Up"--I'm bummed we missed that one). And the advantage of seeing a movie at the last possible minute on a Wednesday night is that we were the only ones in the theater--for the 7:00 show! It was good though. I really liked this movie--actually a lot better than some of the others. We ate at a little Italian restaurant we really like, and it was quite nice to get out for a bit without Theo, especially after such a trying last two and a half weeks since my surgery. We need to do this more often. Luckily we have an abundance of grandparents and honorary grandparents to babysit for us. Honestly, things are so insanely expensive--babysitters run about $10 an hour and movie tickets are $10.50. If we ate at a nice restaurant with, say, $20 entrees, then a single night out to dinner and a movie would cost us over a hundred dollars. Sheesh!
