Couples need to always schedule time to be ALONE, otherwise you drown in a sea of parenthood. Hire a babysitter, or ask someone reliable in the family to take the kids one night a week starting immediately, so the two of you can have time alone. This time can be spent going to a movie, out to dinner, or cooking a nice dinner at home where you can both relax, and talk, and be a couple again without the responsibilities and distractions of the little ones around. On your "date night" make it special. Dress up, put on perfume, do your hair, it'll help you both re-connect on an adult level and hopefully rekindle your love for each other. It will also help you appreciate your kids more when you get these little breaks from them now and then. I hope this helps you out.
