When we do this it helps me remember that my husband is also a priority as well as myself.

Our dinners and nights are just like this too and I applaud you for make a date night once a week! We aim for once a month and both do a good job letting the other have their own "me time" with girls/guys nights out or for me it is getting out and exercising some times. Thanks for a wonderful post and great yummy recipes too.

Never fails. <br /><br />I have two kiddos..one is 11 and the other is 2. I was a single parent for 5 years. Now, I am engaged (hence the 2 year old) but I still feel like a single parent as my fiance is no help with the kids or house or anything else. So no, no date nights..I'm to tired for them! lolMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03235829669008335381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505544608932186547.post-18341065769701196832012-07-30T22:41:39.010-07:002012-07-30T22:41:39.010-07:00Love this!

Maybe when our 2nd was a year did we decide to schedule 2 date nights a month and made them a priority. We had so much fun, each one of us would plan and surprise the other. Our date nights have died down now that I'm 35 weeks with our 3rd, but I know how important it is to have the and to make sure we make time for each other. It makes dealing iwth everything else so much easier. Hopefully we transition back no prob after this one makes his/her arrival!Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13825499605116840387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505544608932186547.post-38152682702774709872012-07-30T11:08:48.530-07:002012-07-30T11:08:48.530-07:00I agree!

We went out of town for the night on Saturday and we had a blast together. Even though I feel like I need to spend as much time as possible with my kids since I work so much, I also need to spend quality time with my hubby. It's all a balancing act and if lettuce on the head is the worst thing that happens then I'd say you are doing pretty damn good!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02174440878961737417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8505544608932186547.post-40599563730936474062012-07-30T10:08:33.755-07:002012-07-30T10:08:33.755-07:00Lindsay I seriously spit my tea out while I was re...Lindsay I seriously spit my tea out while I was reading this. The image of Ronin screaming, Max running around like a madman and wolfing down your dinner is just the perfect description of real parenthood. I think before I became a parent I woefully underestimated how your life would change, but now, I read this and I'm like: TOTALLY. Granted I only have one, and one day I'll have TWO and then I'll really get it. Haha.
