Reasons why my husband is great

OK these will be mostly family related and he has lots of great traits and does great things that won't be mentioned- but give me a break - we have an almost 4 month old and almost 3 year old - he's in school and I just went back to work- little is in our life but how do we pay for these kids and take care of them.
So here goes some things from the top of my head that he has done that has been extra great

1. He worked a rotation that had a 1 hour commute one way - had to be there at 8 and if he was lucky he left at 7. Whenever he came home he did everything he could to help with K or O as much as possible -including getting O to bed and offering to get up with him if he got up.

2. O started getting up lately btw 4 and 5 a.m. with nursing it just makes more sense that I should nurse him rather then he get a bottle - husband not only goes and gets O and changes him but realizes that my sleep is more disrupted then his since I am up with him longer- appreciates that I do it and offeres to stay up until 11 so I can go to bed earlier. This is big since we have talked on and off about when to stop nursing and he could easily be like "well you chose to keep doing it so you deal with the lack of sleep"

3. This a.m. O got up at 5, I tried to go get him to give husband a break - he wakes up and says oh do you want me to get him - I say no don't worry you have a test today I'll go - he says no I don't mind and goes and does it - this is huge I probably would have rolled over and said thanks sweetie!

4. Next rotation he will have to work mondays 12-8 but can be home with O in the a.m. - I said you have a lot of studying to do why not just keep the nanny there and go do some studying - he says maybe I'll do that some but he wants to spend time with his son - doesn't sound like much go to just about any mom's board and you will hear lots of stories of dad's who can't be bothered.

5. My birthday is in a little over a week he is planning a sitter and a night out for me. Not only that but he thought it would be nice to leave O for longer then usual but checked with me to make sure I wouldn't mind leaving him that long.

6. He has offered to drop K off at daycare when he can do it.

7. We decide on new sleep plan for baby who recently started waking again - I offer to stay up with him so hubby can get his sleep and he says it doesn't matter whatever you want- have I mentioned that regular sleep isn't something we have been able to count on since November.

8. He has made time over the past 4 weeks of being away so much to go out with K on his own so she could have some special time with her daddy.

9. He appreciates me and makes me feel beautiful.

10 - Yesterday the first day he got off soon - he picked K up took her to the playground, came home took care of O and K and made dinner

Well those are 10 of at least 1000 I can talk about right now

Thanks sweetie- I really appreicate all you do for me and our family.
