My husband and I have "naked weekends". We send the kids to their grandparents and we stay naked all weekend long. We also have lunch "dates" while the kids are at school. We try to go places and do things together that we've never done before. We still write love letters to each other and if we argue we hold hands. It's very hard to stay mad at someone when you are holding hands.

Always tough. Instead of being a romantic couple, you are parents. Your emphasis has shifted. You guys need to read a book called "For You Both" by Lonnie Barbach. She is the leading sex therapist in the country today. I have a good friend who uses her books...she's a sex therapist! So, buying this book is way cheaper than her $85/hr rate. Get it cheap in paperback, on Amazon.com.along with some of her other stuff, to rekindle your romance. Can be at your house by Thursday..... Lots of hints and ideas to redirect your affection....toooooo many for me to list here. Good luck. The book is worth every dime!!!!

Plan a night out, an overnight that is, once a month or as often as you can afford it.
Find a good sitter, plan a nice dinner out, and find a local hotel/motel that has a nice spa suite.
Otherwise your intimate time together gets so dicey that it starts to lose it's flavor. Kids crying, walking in on you two, etc...
Trust me, it REALLY helps to have a night away when you can.

For a man, treat her right. Maybe a nice dinner, back rub after wards and don't forget to tell her how much you love her. We women like that.
For a woman, follow the same thing I mentioned for a man but add nice, sexy lagerea. My husband likes when I do that.

Those weekend cruises work well. A cruise from Los Angeles to Ensenada Mexico is only a couple hundred bucks each.

raising the kids right helps a lot. If they are a big stres for her then romance suffers. work on the romance and help with the stress.

trust me its WORK. The last thing on your womans mind is sex. THE LAST THING. Its not her fault. Try finding a family member to babysit and take her out to see a movie..somthing she hasn't done since the kids. Stop obsessing about sex, shes not in the mood. Be understanding, stop pressuring for sex. She still loves you and finds you attractive, stop thinking about sex. She'll get back in the game,.if you stop asking for sex. She'll come to you.

prioritize! a couple need time together to keep it alive just the same as the family need their time together,,both are important but you have to make time that is just about the parents,,you are still the same people you just have additions to the family,,you havent split up.
