what a hero!

Well at the risk of being labelled a suck up I am yet again praising my awesome husband! Starting my new job yesterday meant that he had all three kids both Saturday AND Sunday evenings from 12ish until around 10pm. Saturday included getting all three kids and himself out of the pool at swimming lessons and everyone dressed. Apparently the princess did the nudey run out of the change rooms prompting Mark to have to do the nudey run to collect her haha! Then the challenging time of dinner preparation, dinner bath and bed all alone. Sounds easy enough for those who put their kids in their rooms and close the doors but all three of ours require parenting to sleep and the littlest guy is most often breast fed to sleep. But he was up to the task. When I got home Saturday evening he was still slinging the little one but the other two were asleep in their own beds. Saturday night I got home to ALL children in bed!!
And to totally glorify him..... I have slept until at least 9am for the last 3 days!!! Rest assured the kids have been up, usually before 6am but I haven't heard them! I did reward him with a sleep today for a few hours :)
He still doesn't read my blog so don't worry his head won't get too big :P

LOL ok, so I'm just going to stop reading your blog LOL. Jealousy is not my colour...

Don't get me wrong, I can't complain - Buzz is fantastic with Savannah and in fact will be looking after her all day today (bar the feeding), but still. OH...MY... GAWD!

What a true marvel your Mark is. Sadly not all Aussie guys are like that....hmmmm....

Don't worry if you are sucking up, he is your Hubby and you have to get on his good side.

So when is the bitching about him coming? LOL
