I was out cold with an awful flu bug a couple of weeks back and I was completely out of commission all weekend. I did get up to nurse the baby in the morning because that was easier than pumping, but DH was on his own them all weekend. He loved the QT, but pretty tired after playing/watching them all wknd!
He probably won't be alone with them again until my momcation next month!

Yesterday during my evening workout. I've been going to the gym three times a week, and I leave the kids with him during that hour. I'm going on Saturday to dinner and a show with some friends, so he'll have the kids then too.

He'll have her alone all afternoon. It averages about once a week, though. He had her Saturday and Sunday afternoons, too, though this week.

Momcation!!!!
My DH gets the kids for hours at a time often. The last time he had them overnight was when I went to Boston last year.

Wednesday night I went for dinner and drinks with friends.
He has our son alone for usually a few hours every weekend and one night a week for an hour or two (once LO is in bed I no longer consider him to be "alone" with him since he sleeps like a rock).

DH watches DD alone 1.5 days per week, and most afternoons after my mom leaves and before I come back! I actually solo parent much less than him!

All of them? Never.
I do stuff with just the baby sometimes. He can manage the older girls but I can't leave him in charge of all three without one being asleep yet. He had them while I got dressed this morning and all hell broke loose.

last night I had an evening work event. And I went to the gym on Monday and Wednesday evenings. He does bedtime alone a lot now that we've weaned

A few weeks ago DH watched the kids in the morning while I ran errands by myself.

I went to the store for an hour last weekend but I can't remember the last significant stretch, which is kind of comical because I'm always taking off with LO to go visit friends or weekend trips or whatever lol

He's never had them alone overnight.
But he's with them for at least a couple (2) to several (7) hours every day while I work.
And then he usually does bedtime solo once a month or so when I do something with my girlfriends. (When #3 was 3 weeks old he had them for 7 hours while I went wine tasting with my friends.)

@mrsjyw: Everyday all day, lol. DW is on her parental leave now and I am back at work. SNIFF!

He's on leave with the two of them every day for a month, now that I've gone back to work. Then DS will go back to day care and he'll just have DD to deal with. It's tough for him, but I think he's doing better than I was!
