My husband wants more him and I time together?

Do you have family or a friend who can either come over or take the kids for a couple hours? If not, look into hiring a good baby-sitter. One with recommendations that you can trust. You need to listen to your husband. This is obviously important to him. And kudos to him for speaking honestly to you about what he wants. You two do need some alone time together. A whole night in a hotel room, a nice dinner just the two of you, some drinks...would be wonderful! If you can swing it financially, then go about planning it. If you cannot swing a whole night for some reason or another, then work on getting a couple hours together...dinner, a movie, etc.

You have to know that in a marriage your spouse comes first and the c hildren comes second. You need to find time for each other. I have a friend that has been married for 10 years and she goes on date nights with her husband once a month on a Friday. She gets her mother to come and baby-sit their 2 year old. I myself been married 17 years and got one child and honestly I think I am going to follow suit also because children can put a lot of stress in a marriage. If as a couple you aren't happy, the kids won't be happy either.

Hire and baby sitter or let friends watch them maybe for a night or does the children's parents get them ever, what about family? If so have fun! It is very good for couples to still have alone time. Hope it works. I have 5 kids of my own...I know how hard it is. 2 are mine, 3 step-children with joint custody!

We have one child,and "OUR TIME" is important. Our son is our life and we are so happy. It's the best thing, but "BUT" we still need some time to hang out...talk...BS...find out what's going on in each other's life. We had a date the other day when my sister came down, and it was the best time ever. Went to a nice restaurant and chilled. We were going to see a movie, but decided to just walk around the mall instead. At least once a week we try, but force at least once a month...GL

ask a family member/friend to watch the children. or you could ask around for recommendations on a babysitter. have a babysitter watch the kids every friday or saturday night for date night.

That's the problem, "It's so hard." That's not a flashlight he's carrying around in his pocket. Give him a little once in awhile.
