It has been several months since I have been to a movie. I used to love going to movies at the movie theater. Then when movie ticket prices went up so high, I decided that it was not worth the money to go and decided that renting movies was way cheaper. Then we moved away from the city and had our first child and I am dying to go to a movie at the theater. I think I will get a babysitter for this Friday night and surprise my husband with a movie date. I am glad we have washington high speed internet so I can look up movie times. I have only left my daughter with a babysitter two times since she was born. She is eight months old now and she is pretty attached to me, so I always feel bad for leaving her with a babysitter. My mom keeps telling me that I need to leave her for small amounts of time more frequently so she will get used to being away from me, but I do not see the need for her to be away from me right now. Hopefully she will be okay while we go to the movie.
