Why My SO is Awesome

KatieEl · June 2017

Why are you keeping your SO around this week?

KatieEl · June 2017

DH is taking both kids out for the morning so I can feel crappy (and pack) in peace.

For making breakfast so that I don't have to.

Brought me home a big Portuguese steak that I was craving last night.

My DH because he gets up with DD every morning and give me a good 30-45 min by myself to puke and be miserable without having to concentrate on another human

This is my favorite thread every week!
I've been complaining about DH lately because he's on a stupid diet, but I still find him awesome 99.9% of the time. He's awesome because:
1. He washes my car every other weekend and fills up the gas tank.
2. He asked me to take a bath with him the other night just so he could "hold me" (that one got me all teary...).
3. He takes over DD duty as soon as he gets home from work every day.
4. He does ALL of the laundry.
5. He is sweet and understanding even when I'm a hormonal monster.
6. He texted me yesterday, "how are my three babies?" And it took me a minute to realize what he meant. That one got me teary too. Stupid hormones.

DH is crushing it today! Got up early to take my car to get it washed and get an oil change, picked up lunch for us, and now he's unloading the dishwasher!

Oh, and he started my coffee before he left with the car, so it was ready when I woke up with DS.

I am working today and my DH is getting our house ready for a cook out tonight. We are having a couple friends over and he is doing all the shopping, prep work and cooking for this. I will get to show up and attend ... and maybe help with clean up after

He went into beast cleaning mode and tackled projects I've been waiting for him to do for months!

Yesterday I spent the day with my family, my parents picked me up and we went to my sisters place and DH stayed home until late afternoon then he picked me up.
Well, while I was out enjoying the farmers market and lunch with my family, he did laundry, cleaned the bathrooms, cleaned the kitchen, vacuumed, AND grocery shopped. When I asked what he did and he told me everything I was like "you didn't have to do all that!" His response: "I know, I just wanted to bless you" I could have cried.
(Oh, and now he's making me breakfast. How did I get this lucky?!)

Ok, gotta fix that username haha

DH made breakfast and isn't saying much while I sit in the chair and let DD2 nap on me. She used to sleep so well in her crib and lately only wants to sleep on me or next to me.

Bacon and French toast for breakfast and cleaned everything up! He's the best

JuliaGoolia719 · June 2017

He's awesome, in general. He puts the seat down, he does the laundry, he takes care of the dog in the mornings so I can sleep to name a few reasons.
He is also in the middle of taking classes to switch jobs and become a court reporter so that when the baby comes he won't be working restaurant manager hours and will actually be around. Bonus is that this job also pays on avg about 10k more than he's making now which will just about cover daycare costs lol.

Mine is out of town today for work this week but he folded a bunch of laundry and did some other chores before he left.

jakobaby · June 2017

I had DS with me all day running errands. When I pulled in the driveway, DH had the mini pool filled up and ready for DS to play in as a surprise. He had a towel ready and a chair to hang out with him. It was the cutest thing ever.

Truth be told, I am romantically speaking a very cold and emotionally distant person (just being honest!), so DH wouldn't believe it was me if he read this post, but I so appreciate the fact that he is doing what needs to be done to see to it that we can get this new house. I assume it is mostly because he knows how much I want it and how I believe it will be great for our growing family. I can't believe that despite the fact that he already has a great job (and makes $18,000 more than I do and more than I probably will ever make in my field--cheap higher ed!), he is on the cusp of getting an even better one... it will cause a lot of stress for him as it involves traveling and just new knowledge. I'm so impressed with him... the company has been looking since January and he is the first person who has gotten an offer!

cyanope · June 2017

Haha...I think we may be the same person, @EmilyLove25. My brother's nickname for me is CHB (which stand for Cold, Heartless B****...yeah, he's a sweet boy). But, when it comes to DH, I can get gushy!

My sweet hubby has really severe ADHD (seriously, I have found the remote control in our refrigerator before). He is extremely forgetful and generally not so great about cleaning up, etc, but since I have been pregnant, he has been trying extra hard. He has been keeping the dishes done, cleaning the cat litter daily, and vacuuming to keep the cat hair at bay. Also, he has been super-understanding about my lack of patience with my step-daughter. She is also ADHD and on the autism spectrum which can make her difficult at the best of times, but because I have been so tired my patience has been wearing thin. He has been great about stepping in and taking over when he can tell I'm about to lose it.
