When It's dinner time do you sit down at the table in your Kitchen/dinning room or do you sit else where? Do you and your DH/SO eat together or at different times?

We eat at our dining room table close to 5/7 nights. On the other nights, DH is usually stuck at work or we eat dinner after Reid goes to bed. We try to do family dinner as often as possible

Depends. Usually it's me and the boys at the dinning table and my husband on his computer right by us haha. Or else if the boys are in bed or not around then we both eat dinner at our computers (Side by side) and send each other funny links to things haha.

I'm pretty casual about it but I do love family dinners

since we moved, on the nights both of us are home, we eat in the dining room. When I'm home alone, I usually eat in the living room.

We almost always eat together at our table. Sometimes we'll eat on the couch/coffee table together if its just a pizza or something quick, not messy.

We always eat together. When I'm working, it's usually a quick meal in front of the tv. On my nights off, we usually make a real meal and eat either in the kitchen or the dining room... there's really no rhyme or reason to it.

We eat together nearly all nights. Our dining room table is a crappy, wobbly hand-me-down that we haven't managed to replace yet. So we tend to just sit on the couch to eat. Hopefully we will get a new table sometime within the next year because I much prefer the table, especially once the baby is here.

We don't really eat dinner. We usually have a snack at dinner time.

We sit together (all 3 of us) at our table. I think it's important to eat together as a family at the table. Before Oliver we usually ate watching TV in the living room/family room.

On the couch! DH and I usually eat at different times due to his schedule. If we eat together, it's half and half at the table or on the couch. Depends if theres something on tv or not

We eat dinner on the couch most nights, unless we are eating something super sloppy... We do plan so start eating at the table for all meals once the baby is here and able to sit with us, though. We think it's important to have family meals together. We should be eating at the table now, but, well, we just got in the habit of watching TV while eating. It's one of the few times we actually watch TV during the day.

After your baby comes it will be much easier to eat at the table rather than in front of the TV. It's way to hard to feed a baby out of the highchair! Now it's habit for us to all sit at the table. We only snack in front of the TV.

we dont have a dining room so we sit on the couch/loveseat to eat dinner. we use tv tables or what we call 'eating pillows' LOL, the pillow goes in the lap, the plate goes on the pillow. it works pretty well! i hope we get a nice huge dining room when we move, because if we had one we would eat there for sure. i usually always wait for my dh to get home from work to eat too.
