what does...

He comes home, has a quick cuddle with Jack then goes off to the computer for an hour, asks when tea is ready then plays with Jack for 1/2 hours and puts Jack to bed. Other than that, I do everything

On weekends I get one sleepin morning but he's so noisy that I'm always awake anyway. And once I'm up I look after Jack, DH does whatever he wants basically. He's never grasped the concept of shared parenting, but he will pull his weight if push comes to shove, he just knows that he can throw his weight around and I'll put up with it cos he keeps us sheltered, fed and otherwise happy

Despite it all, I went back for another He's a lot better than he used to be though, he comes from a screwed up household where his mother thinks the father should be allowed to take off for a week, shack up with random chicks then come back as long as he brings her flowers At least I don't have THAT problem!

DH gets home, gets changed and then plays with Oli pretty much until its time for his bath. I get him undressed and ready for his bath, whilst DH runs the bath. DH baths him and then I get him dressed, then DH does the bedtime bottle and puts him to bed.
I do all the cooking and cleaning generally, but he does a LOT of stuff with Oli!

I am very lucky, DH gets up to him for his early morning bottle most mornings (normally about 6ish) then DH goes straight to work and goes straight back to bed after his bottle, so I get to wake up at my leisure! Oli normally wakes properly at 8ish. On a weekend we get one sleep in morning each!

 

Mine is home half a day with Issy .. goes to work in avo (while Grandma watches Issy) .. then gets home in time to bath her, except on a Monday when he has evening classes.

On the days he is at home (Im home on a Wed) .. he does the washing and whatever housework needs doing, looks after Issy and studies as much as she allows him too.

Because im home before him .. I usually do dinner and I also feed Issy, I would bathe her but with my ever expanding bump its a tad uncomfy so he does that when he gets in.

On weekends .. I tend to hang out with her so he can get some study time in.

In saying that before he started studying he basically ran the house including cooking and I just went to work and earnt the money to buy the bacon for him to cook

For now, while we don't have kids, DH comes home, grabs a beer and plonks himself in front of the TV. If he's hungry, he helps me cook tea. He mows the lawns maybe once every 8-10 weeks (he's SHOCKING). I do everything else, although he will help with the dishes if I ask him to. On the weekends, if we have racing, he starts getting the car ready about 10.30am and I go round about 4pm (I just muddle round home until then, or do things I want to do). He does make me a Milo in bed every morning before work, and I make him a coffee on the weekends.

When these two arrive, things are going to change dramatically. He knows he will have to start pulling finger, I think he's just making the most of it while he can. He's already said he will bring them in for their first feed when he gets up for work (I don't get up till later) if they're awake, and little things like that - and he will be doing the night feeds. And I have put my foot down and said I don't care what else happens, I WILL have a dishwasher by the time these two arrive, I don't care if it's 2nd hand, but I am NOT having dishes sitting round doing nothing or feeling the pressure to do them all the time. It's a non-negotiable and I don't care if he doesn't agree. It's what is happening

DH comes home, gets changed and then plays with Ella while I have a bit of break and do dinner. He then baths her and then hands her over to me to dress her and get her into bed. I cook dinner most nights (a lot of it I prepare while Ella is sleeping), but he does the washing up. On the 2 days that I work he gets her up in the morning and dresses her, while I have a shower and then I feed her breakfast.

Gets home washes his hands, has dinner with us. Plays with boys untill bathtime, baths boys & gets them ready for bed.
He doesnt do much housework or cooking(unless I ask)
Mornings he will get my early riser up, dressed & breakfast & will wake me when his is about to leave for work

Charly .. I actually prefer SD to do the bedtime routine too .. only because he has been doing since I went back to work, so its kind of "normal" for her to have Daddy do it ..

She likes to "push it" if Mummy puts her down .. as she figures Mummy will get her back up lol

He gets up at 6.15 get's ready for work, gets Ryan up and changes his bum, at 6.45 kisses me goodbye that's my que to get up, then leaves at 7am.

He gets home at about 5.20pm says hello explains his whole boring day then gets in the shower. I plonk R in with him then I start dinner. He'll yell when he's done and I get R out and put him in the lounge to crawl around for a bit. Dh put's R's jama's and nappy on and feeds him a bottle, then one of us will put him in bed for the night at about 7pm.

During the day I do all the cleaning, washing, bake, weed the garden, do the shopping and look after R of course.

Dh mows the lawn every second weekend and he vacumns coz our hoover is SHYT! and he does the dishes at night.

  

I guess I am one of the lucky ones. My DH is cooking tea as we speak, and we generally share the cooking pretty evenly. He makes heaps more mess than me, so whoever cooks cleans up too.

He is quite good at being oblivious to housework and washing, but will definitely do things if I ask him, and even though sometimes I have to ask a couple of times, he isn't that bad. Once a week or every ten days we do all the housework together.

He does most of the garden stuff, and I sort out all the bills.

He will def def def be a hands on dad, he is going to stay at home when i go back to work for about a month, so that will be cool (can't see multitasking being a strong point, but hey, I can't have it all!!)

DH works nights and isn't home until 10:30pm so Michaela's long since been fed, bathed and put to bed and I've tidied up the house.  I leave for work at 6:45am and he is sole charge from then until midday (when he leaves for work) during which time he gives her breakfast, morning tea and lunch, dresses her, keeps the house tidy and does the vacuuming and dishes and any washing, keeps her entertained (which always includes story time and he's also big on 'educational' time) and if she's going to kindy in the afternoon he gets her ready for kindy otherwise he gets an activity set up for her nana to do with her in the afternoon so she's not just plonked in front of the tv.

He does all this and then goes to work to manage a team of staff for several hours (and he's good looking too, man did I hit the jackpot or what!)
