I am planning an escape to the grocery store and Target after my toddler goes to sleep. DH will be on on bottle duty with the newborn!

No I never have, I usually get things done during the day. I imagine once future kids add into the mix it won't be as easy to go to the store anymore

I'm on the couch exhausted when lo goes to sleep. But I only have one lo so grocery trips aren't bad with her.

It depends....sometimes I'd rather lug him around with me to errands so I can use his sleep time to sit on my behind!!
Today DH was home so I did both sitting on my bum and errands without LO.
I really can't imagine having 2. We want #2 very soon but I'm going to have to get creative with time management and spacing the day.

Nope. I like getting things done during the day so I do nothing at night!

DH and I often run errands on our date nights when my sister comes to watch LO on Friday evenings. When LO was younger I would run errands at night since it was overwhelming to get everything done during the day with a baby.

When DH is home, yup! Preferably nap times though, I wanna hit the couch myself after both kids are in bed! There was a time when I would leave my errands specifically for DHs off days so I could get baby free time! Putting P to sleep was just a curtesy to DH. Lol

Yep. When DH is home I'll run to the market after the kids are asleep.

I like to do my errands during the day because lo and I love getting out of the house. I use her nap time during the day to sit on my butt and watch trashy tv/play on the laptop. And at night once lo is asleep i usually get into bed and read a book until I fall asleep. I only have one lo so I bet once I have another I'll be begging dh to stay home with the kids so I can have some alone time at the supermarket!

Yup. The first time I did this I was so excited I hit up 4 different stores I needed to go to.

No, I have me time or couple time, then go to sleep!
I do most errands during the day, preferably while my eldest is at school and before my toddler's morning nap.

rarely--i usually just want to have a glass of wine and then go to sleep. my errands usually have to wait for weekends or my work at home days.

Nah, I still go to bed between 9 and 10! She is easy to run errands with. I don't do much in the evenings.

Usually I nap with them, but occasionally, I'll go grocery shopping or something.
