Niiiiice!! DH is off for the summer, so he's been super House Husband. Too bad he doesn't understand that while these things make my life less stress ful... they are not necessarily "romantic"!

I can tell he's been really trying to take on more so I don't stress as much (dealing with getting quotes for house stuff we need done, etc, etc, etc) and he did take yesterday off so I didn't have to (someone needed to be home to deal with the raccoon issue). So that's been nice.
He reassured me the other day, after learning that his ex before had a baby in January, that he wouldn't trade me or our situation for anything. That he loves even if I am broken, which I tell him I am, and that one day and one way or another we will be parents to a two legged baby.

Um, everything! I've been a total bump on a log lately. he cleans the house, does the laundry, feeds the cat, cleans the litter, gets dinner, etc. Plus he doesn't bug me when I want to watch crap TV and sits on the chair instead of trying to snuggle me on the sofa like he prefers.

He invented what he calls our "tea time" for us several times a week...he makes ice tea right when he gets home from work, fills a bowl with pretzels (and measures out 2 ww points worth into my own little bowl) and a little side of mustard, and our backgammon game and we sit outside playing our game, drinking our tea, and talking about our day. It's really sweet, and I totally love it.
He puts J to sleep (if he is not working) and gets up with him for his night feeding AND if J wakes up before 6:45am he gets up with him so I can sleep till my alarm goes off.
He also brings me flowers 2-3 times a month and always makes a point to tell me I look beautiful. I love him.
He let me sleep in on Saturday--apparently I was exhausted and didn't drag my butt out of bed until after 10am. (I was in and out of sleep if that makes a difference.) He also went out and got one of my favorite take-out dishes on Saturday.
Re: What has HE done for YOU?
Ha!
No, but seriously, he did tell me the other night that I am an amazing mother. That made me happy.
