It is perfect advice though too many couples forget to have time together, i really liked where you said "Stay connected as a couple because one day, the kids are going to leave and you're going to look around your house and only see your significant other sitting there. And it would really suck if you were looking at a stranger." I have never really thought of it that way, im glad i came across your blog on the mommy blogger facebook group<br /><br />missy (never a dull moment)Missy NADMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02708334070484959975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405937624063727621.post-842981164179637592012-08-22T15:24:50.659-07:002012-08-22T15:24:50.659-07:00Normal human beings always understand statements l...Normal human beings always understand statements like that. :) And thank you!

So I'm late on the uptake. Giving away your kids for the night is THE BEST IDEA EVER! We only have one (another to come in ~7 months, sshhh, that's not public knowledge yet), and don't live near any of our family. So every time we're at our parents' houses, or they come visit us, we take FULL advantage and get the heck away from our kid and it's wonderful. Does that sound awful? I hope not, because it's true.b.frog juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15430904581002731235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405937624063727621.post-70970101433003419892012-08-21T07:25:11.549-07:002012-08-21T07:25:11.549-07:00We can't leave her too long at the moment as w...We can't leave her too long at the moment as we're (well, not "we" as such, my breastfeeding skills are pretty much non-existent*) feeding on demand at the moment and trying not to use bottles to avoid "nipple-confusion".

By the third baby, a few weeks after he was born, we went to a wedding all afternoon and evening and I was ready to be away!<br />I'm glad you'll be able to get a break this weekend and maybe even get that hour or two alone.

As my sister, her husband and baby are staying at my Mum's at the moment it will be possible to leave BG with them and walk to the local pub to grab an hour or two alone. OH is particularly looking forward to it as we had a very hot and fractious baby during the UK's traditional two-day summer over the weekend.SiDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10396263416352531818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-405937624063727621.post-62448069007473238842012-08-17T13:57:40.185-07:002012-08-17T13:57:40.185-07:00You are so sweet!
