Ideas for an at-home date night?

[dckate]

I've been sick all week, was gone last weekend and DH and I are both exhausted. Not leaving the house much this weekend sounds pretty amazing!

That said, I want to plan a date night at home for Saturday. Just thinking of ordering special dinner after B hits it around 7:30, and either watching a movie On Demand or starting a new series.

Any other ideas? And, any movie or series suggestions?

What do you guys like to watch? DH and I have watched Orange in the New Black, Downton Abby, the various comedy shows like Mindy Project, Parks and Rec. Sometimes a new show or movie seems more like a date because it is not your regular shows. We recently watched the Chef movie- the food in it is amazing about a Chef that starts a food truck in FL and drives it to CA. We do Sunday night wine night, and have a bottle of wine.

privacy beat me to it. I was going to suggest boards games. Fun way to get a little competitive. I like wine and board game combo.

If you want to get fancy, you could always check out the Dating Divas website. They usually have some super cute at home date ideas. I always think I should do them but then I realize I'm lazy and pregnant, lol.

We like to do fondue for a special date night at home. We usually do just cheese and chocolate.

We have this one:

Awesome ideas!

Might have to put them On the back burner as DD started vomiting out of nowhere tonight...

I don't really "like" this but DD also started vomiting out of nowhere tonight! Three times so far.

Oh no!!! B is much better now, and I hope your LO is, too!


We made popcorn, sat on the couch and started True Detective. It was great!!

I watched about 2 minutes of True Detective before I quit. I might give it another try but I'm so tired of seeing naked dead women on TV. DD has vomited 3 times already this morning.

At least I didn't win the worst mom award yesterday. DD threw up, a ton, all over me and I started heaving. DH ran in and grabbed her but I was about 20 seconds from puking on her. Luckily once DH had her I could step away and gather myself without throwing up. I don't handle vomit so well! She threw up all over me again this morning but it didn't bother me quite so much today. Luckily yaya was close and could help me.
