Any Ideas On What To Do On The Weekends With Your Husband And 5 Month Baby When It Is .?

A five month old wouldn't enjoy the zoo, but if you want to go, five months is a good time if the baby can sleep in a stroller. If your little one must take a nap in her/his crib, then forgo the long outing. Five month old babies are amused by anything, as you know, but only in small doses. I think you should try to find local places that take only a short drive to and from - that way you maximize your time at the place you want to be, and your baby probably won't fall asleep in the car on the way back if it's a short trip. I recommend just staying in your yard (if you have one) and playing or gardening; there are lots of things outside that would interest a five month old. Buy a bag of rice and dump it in a bowl; let him/her mess around with it outside, then hose it away when s/he is done. Buy a flat of cheap annuals along with whatever other flowers/vegetables you would like to grow; give your baby a clump of flowers (minus much of the soil) and let him destroy them (it's a great learning experience). You may want to take off his clothes before you do that.  :o)  The thing about outings with a baby is it can be more tiring than you may think.

It's a never ending battle to keep things exciting, isn't it? I am a firm believer that doing things together and doing things for each other (like making a nice dinner, buying a small gift, etc.) are keys too keeping a fun and loving relationship. Doing things you both can enjoy like: a hike, rock climbing, going to a concert/theater...whatever your interests are. Find something for both of you to do..I personally like playing sports or doing something active with my husband because it helps improve our "team work", and if you can work together while playing sports or something that requires a sort of team like atmosphere, then working on your relationship will be easier.\nEven something like doing yard work or cooking together can create a bond.\nGood luck, I hope this helps.

At 41, I still remember that feeling your husband has.  He's 28-29 and missing his youth.  He has a baby and resposiblites.  "Oh, for just one night to be young again."  Problem is that you can't go back.  He'll see only a few of the people he used to hang out but it won't be the same.  It probably will be only one time that he goes because it's just too sad. \n\n He needs a something new that is exciting that you can do together.  Come up with an idea for something like that and hit him up with it a week or two after his night out.  \nEnjoy

Have her come over and have arrows leading to the bedroom, then go to suriseparties.com, check out what they have, order something different, and have a good time.  Try drawing a nice bubble bath for her, and wash her hair,etc. Make a nice dinner in the nude. Just spend a nice nite together watching movies, drink a bit of wine, or beverage of choice, and let things go. I did the arrows and IT WAS GREAT, had the wine, chocolates, and well we got a movie and just got up to eat lunch.  Had a great time. The surpriseparty.com, has a LOT OF GREAT ideas.  LUCK and have fun.

Sometimes we get so caught up in our daily routine we forget how we got there in the first place.  There are ways to rekindle the passion: go out on a date (just the two of you) once in a while, make a "just us" evening once a week like sitting and listening to music together.\nMy partner and I usually designate Friday evenings for "us" time, we sit and watch a movie together (no matter how silly the movie is).

Yeah, been there, done that, got the T-shirt! What you need dear lady is a babysitter and a date! Get Grandma and Grandpa, best friend , sister, brother, whoever is your most trustworthy babysitter to take the young'un off your hands (and mind) for a night you and hubby can both make the time for- go out to dinner (budget dinner is just fine, just make it romantic), go for a walk after, hold hands, remind each other why you got married in the first place, and then go home and light some candles!

This is really sweet. Creative is good. I think you are on the right track with trying to find something special and a surprise. I think doing something together would be nice, without the child (no offense, but every mother could use some adult only time I am sure ;) \n\nHow about a mini vacation? Have the grandparents baby sit a weekend, and take her somewhere. Does not have to be far, maybe rent a hotel there in your town even ( a nice one, a hot tub in the room is always a plus), take her to a nice dinner (dancing is nice too). If you can afford to, or leave in decent distance to a large city, like Chicago or something, consider going there and getting a room. Then go out on the town. Depending on what city you go to, you can go to sites online and find out what there is to do, and cater your activities to things you would enjoy. Many large cities have horse drawn carriage rides around town as well. \n\nIf that is out of the question then maybe get a gift certificate to a spa for the day for both of you to enjoy together. Or you take lessons in something you both enjoy together, maybe dance or some sort of art lessons. \n\nThis is what my boyfriend and I have decided to do. We are taking the money we would spend on a gift and putting it together and planning a vacation in the spring. If you could afford to, maybe spring for a nice trip. You could always put the plane tickets in a huge box and wrap it ;)

When you have kids, that can really take a toll on your relationship. Try arranging date nites. No matter what comes up. designate a specific evening of the week (month)...how ever you choose and use that as your "date nite". Get the in-laws or your parents to watch the kids and treat yourself and hubby to a romantic evening.

Hi, I have some suggestions. You can go fishing. That is always a winner for everyone. When it gets warmer out the kids, and you can swim, if it's permitted. You can go bowling. Or skating. And at home, you can cook out, and invite friends over. there's the library. there are other things, I'm sure, but there are a few suggestion. I hope you all agree on something, and have a great time, whatever it will be.
