Out of the house with one of your LO's? It's been too long since I've done this with either LO besides boring things like appointments or the store. It's been a long winter though, so that makes it harder. I'm making this a priority soon, I think the girls would really benefit from some alone time.
When was the last time you had one on one time with also outside of the house? What did you do?

I take LO2 out for playdates, walks, the park, library, etc. whenever LO1 is in school. Not all the time, but often enough. Sometimes LO1 will go on shopping trips with me on the weekends and he's had school birthday parties the past few weekends that I've taken him to. I really need to get better about one-on-one time with him. DH and I have 2-on-1 time with him at night while he's going to be and he just loves that!

The girls are in different schools/different schedules so I get to have lots of one-on-one time with each, which is nice. Yesterday I took DD1 to a play date and then lunch out before picking up DD2.

Uhh DD1 and went to the grocery store together purposefully. I could have left her home but I wanted to be with her. We pulled over on our way there and looked at some cows and horses and we sat on a bench and ate donuts together when we were done. She loves the store. I'm going to count it. Otherwise its been nearly a year!

My daughter and I just had a lunch date Saturday and we are going to the American girl store on Sunday. With my oldest son, it has been awhile. My second oldest boy, we went to the zoo tues and are doing "a day out with Thomas" Friday. I will have the baby with me, but when you are one of four, the baby doesn't count hahaha

I had some one on one time with the baby a couple of weeks ago when DH took the toddler to his evening class. As for the toddler, every couple of weeks I take him shopping for my parents while baby stays with my mom. He gets to go in the car and the shopping cart, so I think it's quality time

Almost every weekend, but that's just because DH is scared of having 2 kids at once, so if I have a Target run or something I take one of them and include a fun activity, too (stop at the park or something). LO1 frequently runs errands with me after I pick her up from school, before we go pick up the baby.

When I was pregnant with DS I would take DD or on Starbucks dates and park trips often. Now that DS is here I think t will be a while before I get to take DD out solo, but I'm looking forward to it!
