Last Saturday, my oldest daughter and I took a break from the house {and the twins} and went on a date night. We do this as often as we can, to reconnect and have a girls night out. So, we bundled up and went to a hockey game!
Isabelle loved having her fill of game-snacks {the best ice cream in the world!}. And my favorite? I cherished just holding her hand, since mine usually have a twinlin in each. It was a fabulous night, and our city won!

She looks so much like you. I think it’s great that you spend one on one time with her.
I’ve never been to a hockey game, and always wanted to go to one!

You should, Alissa – it’s a lot of fun!

Tricia @Nightowlmama says
so important to take time with older children when there are little one’s. I am sure she enjoyed the day with mommy
Jennifer @ Mom Spotted says
Good for you! Johnny and I try and have ‘Johnny/Mommy Days’ but they are incredibly hard as hubby looks at it as a chore to watch our youngest all by himself.
Mimi says
What a great way to spend your day!!
Rhea says
That’s really awesome. What a sweet thing to do together and you know she really cherishes that time with you. Go mom!

I love that you have date night with your daughter. Every kid needs some one on one time with Mom.
Sara@MommaFindings says
I cherish my times with my daughter and she begs me to do it more often. … I need to do it more often! 🙂
mindy says
I love that you carve out that special time for her. I need to do that more with my oldest son that kind of gets left out in the hurricane story of his little brother’s life.
Happy WW!
Tarasview says
I love it 🙂
Jenn @ Beautiful Calling says
They grow so fast. What a neat idea to have a date night with her; I may “steal” your idea with my four-year-old.

Owen's Mom says
What a wonderful chance to make some fabulous Mom & Daughter memories! Fabulous.
Karie says
Hello gorgeous! So glad you and the big girl got to escape. I know Grant and I try to as often as possible, but sigh, work and the kids. It is always nice to get away with them so they have their special time away from the chaos of the twins. You look so happy. Love and miss you! xoxo
