Ride more.
Pick two days each week, one during the week, and one on the weekend.
During the week, do an additional 10 mile ride after work (in addition to everything else you're doing). After a few weeks, you might want to start doing this 2 or 3 times a week after work.
On the weekend, go for a longer ride ... 25 miles to start for 2 or 3 weekends, then up it to 30 miles for a few weekends, then up it to 35 miles for a few weekends, etc.
Since you have little ones, load them up into a bicycle trailer and take them with you on the after work and weekend rides. The extra weight of the trailer will be good for you.
On an evening ride, ride 5+ miles to a park, run around with them in the park for a little while, then ride back. On a weekend, take them to a distant park or the beach or something, run around with them there for a while, and ride home.
