A year of dates

With a new baby finding time for each other is tough. I found you can quickly lose track of who you were and the type of relationship you had.

That's why for Hubby's birthday I gave him a year-long present. A year of dates.

On the first of every month he eagerly opens a new envelope to see what date I had planned for that month. We then lock it in, find a baby sitter and off we go.

The benefit is it reminds us to find time for each other, gives our family their heart's desire to look after Mini Me and some dates are even pre-paid, cutting down on our costs.

Here are the dates we've had so far:

• July: Family weekend away to Pemberton (he can't get too spoilt now can he).
• August: Comedy night
• September: Gold Class movie night
• October: Anniversary dinner
• November: Subiaco food market & Buddha Bar dinner
