Friday nights. We used to always have Friday night plans, celebrating the end of the week. Now most Friday nights we stay home, doing chores and futzing on the computer.
Kind of all of it, but I don't mind. I love the feeling of companionship, and just being comfortable with you. Sure, everything is exciting at the beginning, but it's also terrifying and awkward.
Nothing has changed. Things are always exciting and changing. However, I do think we have gotten so busy with kids, jobs, maintaining health and fitness that we have had a little less time available for building "relationship muscles." However, we are both aware of this and always looking for opportunities to put a little more into this area.
Everything.
Our conversations have gotten humdrum...I really wish that we could go back to our intellectually stimulating conversations. He's sexy when he argues and I know he (secretly) loves it when i prove him wrong.
Eating out on weekends - shrimp tacos at Bajio once a week, mmmmmm. Now weekends are leftover time.
We used to have a lot of 'free' time together, and do random things. Its a lot busy now.. hopefully 'those times' will come back :).

Sloppy h*ad and no baked goods recently.
we were more sexually active before we were married. We also went on more adventures and explored more.
After looking at the carefree lifestyle of school and the ability to just have a new adventure an whims notice. Being an adult sucks and a constant fight to just keep some of the energy that was there in the beginning. It's like being married for 80 years but we only have ourselves to blame to our success or failure in keeping it exiting.
Grown-up time. Formerly know as 'all the time'.
Talking on the phone. We used to stay up till like 3 am just talking!
