How do you feel about the balls in your life?

alli&dan · April 2013

I'm irritated. He's constantly acting butthurt over the fact that B prefers me for most things. She wants me to hold her when she gets hurt. She gives me lots of unsolicited kisses, when he has to beg for them. She likes to sit with me at night and cuddle before she goes to bed. She prefers that I wash her hair.

I understand his feelings are hurt, but I don't know how to get him to understand that she's not doing these things intentionally to hurt him. And as a result he is acting cold and moody towards me. What am I supposed to do?

Not cool, DH. She's going to have lots of "daddy do it!" phases too. Can you maybe find one thing that can just be "theirs" to do? DH does 90% of baths in our house, and J definitely prefers it that way.

I have nothing but praise and sunshine and rainbows and glitter for my DH. He's finally happy and excited about moving and starting a new job, he's proud of himself, and what he's been able to accomplish in 5 short years.

The only downside is no waffles Damnn you AF.

I love them I just feel to yucky to do anything about it. He's been so great with helping with M and letting me veg out while he's off. Today is his first day off, and he stayed up to make sure M got his meds on time last night while I slept. He's a great man and my best friend.

he really is amazing. He's been cooking dinner 2 nights a week which is awesome.

However, Sunday, after he had grilled us up some burgers, I went to clean the kitchen and found the soggy paper from the ground beef package and a few pieces of raw ground beef, sitting on my counter, right up against my clean dish towel and the dish drying rack. WTF!?

That made for a bit of a fight because he just kept saying he was going to clean it up later and I couldn't seem to stress to him that is is never okay to do that, even for half a second. Gross.

I'm pretty happy with them. I wish he had cleaned or given L a bath while I worked today (I hinted that they both needed done), but I can't complain too much because he usually does clean while I'm at work. Overall, we are in a really good place right now.

I did try this with bathtime since he's home with us now in the evenings. I still have to wash her hair. She cries when he washes her hair, but we do it the same way. Ugh, toddlers!

I'm borderline like and annoyed.
He is seems really insecure. Asking if I love him. I just want to shake him and yell "yes!"

He's helped me with a few things that he wouldn't have done in the past.
