Our 1yo is actually pretty good about dining out! They we have a "snuggy" night where we just hang out at home and go to bed early :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680223 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 00:18:17 +0000 snowjewelz 2680223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not much different, prob just more relaxed without needing to prep for the next day? Friday nights we host people over so that part is a little more stressful. Also currently with a newborn so all my nights are the same lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680150 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 19:10:24 +0000 Corduroy 2680150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually I'm on the couch playing on my phone and DH plays video games in another room. I just started taking dance lessons Friday night. I went out for a drink with a dance classmate last night after class. It felt so weird to be out after four years of being in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680143 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 18:43:45 +0000 Tanjowen 2680143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, we are a bit non traditional in that DH usually works Friay-Monday. So weekends for me are boring. Usually in bed early and reading a book.</p> <p>LO loves Sunday nights because I let him eat dinner on the couch by night 3 because mommy is done and just doesn't care haha. :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680138 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 18:14:29 +0000 SweetiePie 2680138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Friday we usually do early dinner out with our son around 5pm. Then the rest of the night is like any other. I might allow myself to be lazier than usual. </p> <p>Saturday we have a standing sitter. So we go out to dinner either alone for date night or with other couple friends. On the one night a month or so that the sitter isn't free, we'll maybe just order in and watch a movie or watch TV. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680135 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 17:56:03 +0000 wrkbrk 2680135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsSCB: We did this before DS was born and I'd like to get back into the habit but he is wiped after daycare all week!! :shocked: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2680029 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 08:31:20 +0000 Alba4 2680029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>After the kids are in bed we'll build a fire, have a drink, and maybe watch a show. We try to get to bed by 11, since IF the baby sleeps through the night, he'll be up at 5:30! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679997 Sat, 14 Jan 2017 03:29:10 +0000 mamainthesun 2679997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If we don't have guests or invited to dinner at friends, it's exactly the same as a week night! Dinner, bed and sleep.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679982 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 23:58:03 +0000 ALV91711 2679982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Weekend nights are typically the same as week nights. </p> <p>10pm is a late night for me any day of the week. Sometimes on the weekend we will have company or go visit but since we are gone from home so much for work during the week it is nice to just all be at home together. Tomorrow afternoon the 3 of us are having family game time since DS got candyland for Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679932 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 20:12:50 +0000 FaithFertility 2679932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me and DH tonight both had a glass of wine while DD played legos and DS played on his mat we just sat with them in his bedroom and talked and interacted with them for a good hour after dinner seriously one of the best nights!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679904 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 19:11:20 +0000 gilmoregirl 2679904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsADS: It is kinda sad, but I think my favorite thing about weekend nights is not packing lunch. I hate packing lunch. </p> <p>Our weekend nights often look very similar to week nights, but with fewer chores to complete and I can stay awake past 9 pm so we can watch a little more TV. Glamorous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679900 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 19:09:08 +0000 MrsADS 2679900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Don't have to clean up or pack lunches - woohoo! Lay on the couch, drink some wine, go to bed early. So exciting. Ha ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679897 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 19:07:54 +0000 littlejoy 2679897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually go out to dinner one of the nights, but otherwise, it's the same. We do tend to do dinner with the neighbors/friends over the weekend, but that's the only different thing. </p> <p>After LO goes to bed (like, every single night), DH and I curl up on the couch and watch an hour of TV before going to bed. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679892 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:58:46 +0000 MrsSCB 2679892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually go out to dinner Friday and Saturday nights (with our son). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679887 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:52:47 +0000 travellingbee 2679887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Saturday nights we usually go out to eat, and on the weekends we are often with family like my parents. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679882 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:42:30 +0000 gingerbebe 2679882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Every other weekend we have our friends come over on a Saturday. They usually come after afternoon naps and play with the kids and chat with DH while I get dinner ready. We eat together and they play some more with one of the kids while the other is being bathed. We put the kids to bed and then hang out and play board games and everyone goes home by 10pm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679881 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:40:19 +0000 nana87 2679881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Basically the same as week nights! Sometimes we will go out to dinner or have people over, but most of the time it's just the same old dinner, bath, bedtime, then watch a little tv or crash early depending on how hectic the day was. We try to get out and about more during the actual day but evenings are usually chill and routine </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679877 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:24:08 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2679877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Typically just like most other nights. I hate having a lot to do on the weekends because I'm so exhausted from the work week. So I like chill weekends. We're also not super social and prefer to stay in :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-your-weekend-nights-look-like-as-a-parent#post-2679874 Fri, 13 Jan 2017 18:18:03 +0000 Bao 2679874@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My husband works Friday nights, so that night is pretty much like any other. Dinner, playtime, bedtime routine, put girls down and then I read or browse my phone. Typically in bed by 10pm. Sadly, Saturday nights aren't too much different...we don't do too much on the weekends in the evenings with the kids, or alone. I don't mind it most of the time though, I prefer chill over super busy. </p>
