Dh is doing his usual getting up early with baby everyday during the hols as he does not see her alot during term-time (yes I am very lucky) older two have now went down stairs as well and it now sounds like there is a riot happening.

Torn between going and joining in with crowd control or shall I stay cosy in bed and shout for a coffee to be brought up to me?

Stay in bed Smile I'm mning from my bed too

Your DH sounds like such an INVOLVED parent. How lucky you are. Taking care of the baby. Sorting out two older children who want to remove each other's limbs will be water off a duck's back to him.

You might want to wait a little before you place the order for coffee, though.

Sorry mrsgypsy, I'm assuming that is sarcasm but I'm afraid it's lost on me.

I caught up on Facebook before going back downstairs this morning, despite the fact dd was shrieking like a lunatic and I could hear dh arguing with her about how she DID have to wear trousers. Its good for them to bond :D

MrsGypsy · 03/04/2012 09:40

No, not sarcasm! Sorry!

More like you can have a chuckle in bed at the thought of your DH dealing with what you have on your plate every day!!

I don't think I am lucky that my dh "look after" his baby. She is half mine and half his, we both love her equally so the looking after part is shared.

I AM lucky that for the two weeks Easter leave her gets up at 6.00am every morning with her even though I am also on holiday.

I think that the op means that she is lucky that he is about to do the morning shift and not having to shoot off to work first thing. Or at least that is how i read it.

Give them half hour and then they will have bonded and peace might have been restored. otherwise intervention will be needed and appreciated by all parties.

x-post with the op. need more coffee.

Enjoy Fudgy

mning from bed here too - its snowing outside!!!

Text him asking for coffee!

PineappleBed · 03/04/2012 09:50

Stay in bed! If you helicopter over him you'll make him think you think he's not capable and he might give up...noooooo!

That's what I think when I hear screaming, she's as much his as yours.

Depends what you mean by ww3. if it actually sounds as if he's having a miserable time, rather than just normql chaos,you could go down and help- just like you would if anyone else was having a miserable time doing something. He doesn't sound as if he needs "training" or whatever. A partnership's a partnership.
