DH and I get our "me-time" most nights after DS goes to bed, and I had a couple of momcation wknds in April, but I haven't had an afternoon to myself in a while!
I am getting my hair done in a couple of wks before baby #2's arrival. I took a half day from work and plan on eating, shopping, and pampering myself!

I get quite a bit of it. I just took a mid morning break and went to Starbucks. I'm trying to soak it all in before the baby comes!

I just went away to a resort this past weekend with some friends for ones 30th birthday. We had a spa day on Saturday and pool time and an amazing fancy dinner! It was so nice! It was my first trip since DD was born 16 months ago!

Can't remember! That's okay. We are in survival mode, LO's birthday this week, then moving in 2 weeks and haven't started!
LO doesn't sleep much, so when she's alseep it is my bedtime too!

Sunday - DH took LO out for breakfast and then errands running so I could have a chunk of time to do whatever I wanted. I didn't do anything exciting, sigh, but I did get a bunch of stuff done I needed to get done.

Last December, for 48 hours, in which DH called me the entire night the first night because Will was sick. Not since DH started his new job in January have I had more than about one hour sans baby or work.

Luckily M naps pretty well so I get some time each afternoon. My parents are coming over tomorrow and I'm going to take a leisurely walk through the mall with some Starbucks

I took my first weekend away this past weekend. Dd is 15 months and the first time I have ever left her overnight. I got to sleep in a big fluffy hotel bed all by myself, slept in until 10 and didn't have to wake up and do anything for anyone. Took multiple long showers, ate room service. It was awesome! I was dreading being away from her but it was so good for me. I feel so refreshed!

This past Saturday! I had a friend in from overseas so we spent the day in Oxford whilst DH took the kids over to his parents' house and hung out there with them. I was gone for five glorious kid free hours - the longest I have EVER been away from either of them whilst they were awake!
Other than that, we have a regular babysitter who comes over for an hour or two one afternoon per week whilst I run errands or go to the gym - this is a brand new thing though and we are only on our third week of this arrangement. So far, I am liking it!

A couple of weeks ago. Sometimes DH takes DS to see his grandma and I stay home. I miss them awfully, but I've been sick a lot lately, and resting at home while no one's jumping on the bed goes a long way.

Yesterday, I got my eyebrows threaded and went to sephora by myself. Bliss.

I went out to dinner and a movie with girl friends when pitch perfect 2 came out. It was mostly awesome but I had dh worriedly texting me the first 45 min of the movie bc he couldn't get lo to bed

True me time? I think right before Easter in April when I last had my hair done.

A couple weekends ago when DH got me a night at a hotel and a day of spa treatments for my 30th birthday, it was magical! He is always so good about making sure I get enough "me" time.

Like you (as always), DH and I get a few hours after ds goes to bed.
Two weeks ago, I had my hair done, so I had the whole afternoon to myself!!

In April I got a haircut and a massage. Since then, the closest I have gotten to "me" time is on the toilet or in the shower. So...April

I went shopping for an hour with my sister on Sunday....Saturday evening went out to dinner with my siblings. Before that it was ages. My older doesn't nap anymore so I only have "alone" time when he's in school a few days during the week - but I'm always cathing up on chores or taking care of the infant on those days ; )

Sunday I went shopping with my girlfriends during nap time and then my husband took our LO to do the grocery shopping while I hung out on the couch.

Sadie's a good napper, so I get a little each day. I actually got a nap myself today! I also went out last night for drinks and painting with some of my girlfriends, and after a couple weeks of solo parenting, it was FAB.

I had a random half day off work last week and kept it a secret from DH and nanny. I don't know why I kept it a secret. I guess I work so much I feel like time off work should be spent with DD.
Anyway, I got my eyebrows waxed and ate frozen yogurt. It was lovely

I don't consider time at night me time, even if I am sitting and watching a show, lol.
I try to take a day off from work once a month. I get a ton of stuff done, plus with my son in school for a few hours, I even get some alone time!

I get "me time", but it's always a short amount of time. Occasionally, I'll go to dinner with my friends or take an hour to walk around Target alone. It's very rare I get a half day or a whole day to myself.

Last night. Got a mani/pedi in preparation for a wedding that I'm in this weekend.
