Ideas for romancing my wife?

We have 2 young children so get very little time together. I sometimes write messages on the mirror,leave love notes around the house for her to find,and buy flowers,but I am running out of ideas. Anyone have something meaningful that I could do?

Update:

Great answers everyone.

    Women give us hints of what they like. Pay attention to what she does with you. Its usually little things,(little touches, little gifts, etc.) Its hard sometimes, because we find it annoying and it isn't what we want. They have a big thing about wanting us to want to do something without being told, so they don't tell us what they want. Drives me crazy, but remember this is about her, not you. Seems to me your ideas are already pretty good. A trick I learned was to remember her favorite color, smell, taste, fruit, you name it. You can then buy her some silly little thing (doesn't matter what it is) that is her favorite color, smell ,etc. and tell her you were thinking of her when you bought it. They like that. Oh, they like touches that don't automatically lead to sex. (don't know why, they just do). So if you massage her, don't grab her boobs! Seems to spoil the moment. They like to be told that you love them, think they are wonderful, etc. So, tell her those kind of things. Be real, though. They can spot if you're phony a mile away. Oh, one more thing that works for me. Take her somewhere where you have to dress up. Have her take your arm, open her door, hold her chair. They love that. Lastly, no matter how bad you want to have sex, take it slow. They want to believe you are doing all this because you are really romantic. If you move too quick, you blow it. If you do it just right, you'll get lucky anyway. Good Luck!

    organise for someone to take care of the kids away from your home. then surprise her by doing the bedroom up with scented candles and rose petals and treat her to the most amazing all over body massage she has ever had!! you dont have to be an expert on massaging just knowing that you went to so much effort for her will be enough to please her!! after the massage I shall leave up to ur own imagination but when your thru dont forget to kiss and cuddle her and tell her you love her and how beautiful she is...if that doesn't add romance to your relationship then I dont know what will!!!!! best of luck!!

    Well yesterday my husband texted me from work, "do not make plans next Friday and Saturday, check Macy into the dog hotel and do not ask any questions". I don't know what tricks he has up his sleeves, whether we are going on a weekend trip or he has something nice planned for home, but he's got me excited!

    Send the kids to grandmas for the night and send her on a intimate scavenger hunt. Start it at the door. It will be fun and break routine.

    i agree with the massage idea!. I love it when he massages me.. but when he does it from his own volition. And when he does it with all his heart and love.

    Also, say sincere, sweet things to her. caress her skin, on her arm, or her neck and back. whisper sweet things into her ear. look into her eyes and wipe the hair off her face and say i love you so much..something like that

    Hah just ideas..=)

    Try to have regular dates.

    Try to be a couple, not just a family.

    Communicate, hold hands while watching tv, tell her she's beautiful.

    You know how this works :)
