Dating with a new born

Just because you have a two week old doesn't mean that you can't have a date night...right? Right!
It just means that instead of going to a fancy restaurant you go to a kid friendly place (which in my book is a place that won't look at you funny if you pull out a boob in the middle of dinner because your little one is meowing that she's hungry). It means that instead of going to happy hour you get to go out for a happy meal. And instead of going to the movies you get to go to the drive-in - which is exactly where we went on Friday night!
After picking up some take-out and making sure we had lots of pillows for breast feeding we trucked over to the drive in to watch one of the dumbest movies ever made: House Bunny. Unfortunately all of the other movies playing were either violent or scary...so House Bunny it was. Honestly the movie wasn't what it was all about. We were more into the reclining seats and freedom to breast feed at whim (along with trying to explain what the playboy mansion is to Dereje from the comfort of our car).
The only glitch in the date was that it is still really hot in Phoenix - which was pretty miserable for a short while, but it did cool off a bit making it manageable through the movie - but not manageable enough to stay for the double feature! Maybe next time - I think that we will have many more dates to come at the drive-in - we're pretty hooked!

Which drive in did you go to? I am trying to think of the one near my house in Scottsdale...but I can't remember the name of the main road. We always talked about going there but never went....
