A weekend without the kids. What to do?

First of all just gather up out of your memories what your husband likes the most then try and do that for him..Like if he likes to eat you can cook some favourite recipie of his and you both can have a cosy candle light dinner together, or if he likes to watch movie you both can have watch some good movie having popcorns and sitting close to eachother or just you both can spend dome good time in some tranquil place hand in hand..remembering the days of sweet old memories..

i think it`s good news for both of you maybe visit the place when you and him meet in the first time

Well, hubby and I pop some popcorn stash it in zip lock bags, make some drinks and head out to the drive in but I'm not sure you could do that this time of year where you are. Maybe cook a candlelight dinner? Or recreate your first date?

Is it really eager to want to have the time for you and your husband since you have kids? if it's ture, my wife and me should be to treasure ourselves time more, as we will soon meet our soon-to-be-borned baby, by then, maybe as you said, we will be hard to have oursevels time alone. Anyway, thank you for your remind!

My wife and I don't get a lot of chances to spend time with each other without the baby around either. Then, once we pay for a sitter we can't afford to go out! It's easier to send the baby off somewhere and then stay home and do things together. One of our favorite activities when we have a night at home is to make a nice dinner together. For example, we'll buy all the pieces necessary for sushi and make it ourselves at home. It's never as nice looking as at a restaurant, but it's a fun thing to do together. We've also invested in an inexpensive fondue pot, and sometimes we'll do chocolate or cheese fondue on these nights together. I think our best night was the lobsters, but that was only possible because we had some grocery store gift cards. Nice dinners are much less expensive if you make them yourself. If you and your husband cook together, it's a fun activity and a nice meal! My wife and I will also sometimes be old-fashioned and play board games together. It might not seem like an exciting thing to do, but it's a lot of fun. You end up laughing and interacting in ways that movies or video games don't allow.

Head out to a nice restaurant, have a GREAT dinner, then head home and cuddle up on the lounge with a movie or 2... Its a rare occasion to go to a restaurant and just be calm... especially with kids! :P

what about getting some movies from the library? hubby and i are in the same boat at the end of Feb. as both of our daughters are going to a winter retreat with our church. can't wait!

Go out, have fun, enjoy eachother. Might be it's not what you expect from it since when you are used to children you keep "hearing" them.
