Get a sitter!

I've mentioned the book "Marriage Fitness" by Mort Fertel, I have really liked this book. I read recently some suggestions for date night. He suggested being religious about it. If you'd like to go out weekly, once a month or twice a month, hire a babysitter. Don't call them every week, just have them booked for how often you'd like to go out. They just come, no extra effort to find one at the last minute!

Now, I know we only pay a babysitter once in a while because we have family close and they love our kids. So whoever watches them, friends, family or girls in your neighborhood-just talk to them and have them put it on their calendar for the "third Friday" every month. It is pretty hard to find an excuse not to go out when you know the babysitter is on their way!
