i'm going to brag on my hubby for a minute

so, last night mathis had a pretty bad night. he was basically up from 3:30 until 7:30, almost hourly. i think it had something to do with it being his 1st night at home plus the fact that he is so skinny that he pees all over himself b/c he is so skinny the newborn diapers barely fit and i can't point his peepee down yet b/c of his circ... so anyway, i took most of the responsibility last night and let DH get some shut eye.

this morning, he gave the baby to my mom and did a bunch of stuff around the house. i thought i was pretty impressed until i found out that not only did he do household chores, he borught a bunch of old paint to the city recycling center. then on his way home he stopped at Target and got Mathis a bunch of newborn snap shirts and gowns b/c i had only bought a couple and we basically have to chnage his clothes every time he pees. Dh had also noticed i was running low on pads and stopped by the feminine hygiene aisle as well! he's such a sweetie!

  • No way!! He bought pads!? That's awesome. My DH would (1) not know that i needed them without me begging and (2) wouldn't even know what kind to buy.

    the funny thing about that is that he knew they were always but didn't remember exactly which kind so he bough these really funky ones- the super advanced technology always. i thought that was such a guy thing. i would never buy those for myself. i mean, they have to be labelled to know the front from the back and they come in a box.

    ?Haha. ?I sent DH and Orion to the store for pads the other day and I had to give him the old package to take with him because I knew he'd have no idea what kind to choose.?

  • that is so awesome of him! Sorry you aren't getting sleep, but it's good to hear that DH is helping out more than asked. My DH also wouldn't even know what kind of pads let alone wher ein the store they are.

    Ditto this.  What's sad is that all it would really need to be is "R, stop being a douche bag"
