We don't hang out with friend nearly as often as we would like. Maybe once a month if we're lucky. We are really aiming to get better at it!

I do probably twice a week for play dates with LO's. DH, almost never. He needs more dad friends!

With our life-long/college friends? 4-6 times a year, at events that are planned well in advance since we all live about an hour away from each other.
I have noticed that as we've gotten older, our newer friendships are with our co-workers since we see them so often.

Umm. Like never. It's pretty sad. She's only 4mos, but really... it's just been a ridiculously busy and stressful month. We are hoping to have a friend date in November, and Rawrasaur and I need a playdate soon!

We get together with friends at least every other week. It really helps though that we have friends that live right around the corner from us and that we are in a bowling league with. Having a standing event on the calendar goes a long way. (Plus neither of us have kids yet!)

I would say once a month with both of us going otu with other couples. I get together with my girlfriends for lunch or we make a dinner take every few weeks.

I see my friends every week for yoga and I often see a friend 2-3 times/mo outside of that. DH's friends are mostly work friends and they do happy hours or something similar maybe once a month or so. As for couple friends? Not that often unfortunately. Maybe once every month or two.

We don't see them too often anymore. DH sees a few friends at the gym and I see a few at work/daycare. Then, occasionally, I will go out with friend after bedtime, or he will, but it's really rare that we get to go out together. We don't have a great babysitting system. I would say once every couple of months we get out to dinner and bring LO.

together, maybe once every 2 months? dh is just not a social creature and his schedule is funky so it's hard to make it work. but i see my friends regularly, just independent of dh.

We have different groups of friends because DH is 7 years older than me. However, I am more social so I was able to befriend his friends' wives very easily but he is still somewhat shy, reserved around my friends. We are basically one of the last couples to start a family between both of our friends due to TTC issues so everyone has even very kind and supportive. Their friendships are what helped us through these many years so I promised myself I would never neglect my friends and make a conscious effort to keep in touch. So we have been able to meet with friends every other week. Sometimes we take turns watching baby and the other person goes solo. But if it's a good day for her like she's napped well, we take her with us. It works for us. Friends are very important in my book, especially good friends and childhood friends.

More frequently than we spend quality time alone together! Probably once every 1-2 weeks.

As a couple, maybe every couple of weeks. It's hard to find the time, because we don't have much free time together and want to have some "us" time too!

We're not on a regular schedule. I wish we would do something once a week--I really enjoy it.

I get with most of the girls at least weekly. We usually get together as couples every week, too.
