This is a tip from my cousin-in-law, Ate Jenny! She and her hubby, my Kuya Bee-Boy, are expecting a baby next year. They’re trying to squeeze in some personal time together now, way before the baby arrives. 
She has a point! Once the baby comes, there might not be enough time to go on those romantic dates anymore. It’ll all be about the baby! So now, they try to watch at least 3 movies a week.
I think that’s a great idea. January’s coming along, the future-grannies (my Mom and H’s mom) are asking me almost everyday about their future grandchild, my biological clock’s going berserk, and H always grabs the chance to spend time with our 8-yo-cousin, Max. I think we’re gonna have a baby first quarter next year (cross those fingers!) so we might as well get into movie marathon mode already. 😀 Ooooh. And well, it’s the Metro Manila Film Festival soon… maybe we can start with that!
P.S. Another thing I was thinking of was Discovery Suites’ Wellness Package. It’s a weekend for two at their hotel, with body scrubs, meals and massages in the package. I’ll check it out sometime… looks like a very relaxing and very interesting holiday gift for both of us busy bumblebees.
