Very odd evening, in that we were our normal self, minus physical affection.
H got home while I was folding our clothes. He helped me bring them upstairs. When I was changing, he entered the room and, I don't know why, I got a little embarrassed and said I was naked (btw, if I weren't pregnant I would totally have used it to my advantage, and he would have forgotten about ow a long time ago, but right now I look like a balloon). He lingered and started changing too, which I find a little intimate for two people who sleep and shower in separate rooms.
We went to our favorite restaurant. S1 is teething and is a little monster, so I knew that the restaurant would be an adventure. Last week H got irritated with everything and acted like a jerk when S1 was acting up.
Today he sat next to me and when I told him to go sit somewhere else because the sun was in his eyes, he said he wanted to be near S1 to help.
Throughout the meal we talked, entertained our son and he even walked around with him, because our boy was so fussy.
After the meal I suggested we get a movie at red box. That was always our thing on Fridays and I thought he'd say no because it would be too familiar, but he agreed.
At home he played with S1, bathed him and we sat down to watch the movie. He sat very close, so close that our shoulders touched, but after a while he went to lay down at the other side. I asked him to rub my back because its been a real mess with this big belly and he did it for a while.
Throughout the movie we cracked jokes at each other and made comments, just like the old times.
He asked whether he should paint the master bedroom tomorrow. Btw, I still don't know why he is taking on so many house projects. He has been on a mission to fix everything in the house and, no, he doesn't want to sell the house. He wants me to continue living in it, even if we separate.
He fell asleep, so I turned off the movie and came upstairs.
