Okay, so we've all been there. (Or we will be, I'm sure.) You're all prettied-up, waiting for your husband or significant other to get home from a long day at work. You've gotten all of the baby food out of your hair, and maybe even styled it in a way other than a messy ponytail or bun. Heck, perhaps you even found time to shave, exfoliate, and get all lotioned-up so your skin is soft and sweet smelling. Gone are the usual yoga pants and comfy sweatshirt, and you're wearing something a bit more alluring and form-fitting. The house is clean, the kids are asleep, and you have a bottle of wine and a nice meal in the works. Maybe all the toys are put back in the toybox where they belong, rather than being scattered all over the floor. (Have you ever stepped on a Lego? OUCH!) So you're prepared for some much needed and overdue romance, and when he walks in the door, all he seems to want to do is grab a beer and the TV remote and act like a zombie. He doesn't notice that the house is clean or that your legs are as soft as a baby's butt...He doesn't even notice that you've traded in your usual "mom uniform" for something sexier. He is content to veg out, and takes no notice of all of the not so subtle hints you're giving him. I admit. I have been there myself. Probably more often than I'd care to admit. After all, we do have a teen and 2 toddlers, and my husband works long hours. Romance? What's that? Oh wait...Yeah. I remember now. It's what had in abundance before we had more kids running around. Now don't get me wrong. My husband and I love each other very much, and we're incredibly happy together. But more often than not, it's hard to get a "rise" out of him, if you know what I mean. (Wink, wink!) Some of this may just be due to exhaustion and the stress of everyday life, but there may be another explanation as well....Low Testosterone, or "Low T". Let's face it: My husband is 35 years old, so he doesn't enjoy the virility he did when he was 17, or even at 30. (Trust me, I know...I was there for both time periods.) Dr. Sloan Teeple and his wife, Susan, have come out with a great book that explains how low testosterone can affect your relationships and what you can do about it. (Who doesn't want to bring that spark back, right?) In their book, "I'm Still Sexy So What's Up With Him?" you'll learn all about "Low T". The Teeples personally struggled with some inexplicable health and relationship problems, until Dr. Teeple had his blood tested. At just 33 years old - he found out that he had the testosterone level of an eighty-year-old man! Simply knowing this helped him get his “T” back on track... and restore his health, mood, relationship, and vitality! Quick STATS on Low “T” - Low Testosterone affects over 40% of men over 45 years old. - Only 5% of these men will be diagnosed. - Low Testosterone is nearly 100% curable. Symptoms of having Low “T” - Loss of Sexual Desire - Fatigue - Unexplained Weight Gain - Poor Concentration - Moodiness Does this sound familiar? I can sense you're all nodding your heads! Well, in addition to the new book, there is also this great blog app! It's interactive, and it can help you find out how to combat Low T, and even get some great date night ideas! Win A Date Night Prize Package! I am thrilled to announce that a lucky reader will receive a copy of the book, "I'm Still Sexy So What's Up With Him?" as well as a pair of movie tickets so you can have a great date night!

I still like the traditional dinner and a movie. I also love going to a comedy club. Nothing is sexier than laughter.

Candle Lite dinner, quite so we can talk only adult talk, maybe a glass of wine, and nice dessert. After a nice walk hand in hand and then home to just be able to sit and be together.

Have fun. Even if it's while the kids are asleep. You don't have to go out to have a good time! My hubby and I like to stay in and play card games or board games like Monopoly. It may seem kind of "kidish," but being a "grown up" all the time is exhausting. So break out the Uno cards- and maybe put a sexy twist on it.
