DP is on day ten of annual leave. Last night he was asleep on the sofa by ten when I got downstairs from putting the four children to bed. He stayed in bed until 8.30 this morning while I had got myself showered and ready, put a load of washing on, made two packed lunches, fed the four month old, got the other three DC up, ready and fed. I took the DC to two separate schools leaving the toddler at home with DP but taking baby because she had a doctor's appointment.
I took baby to the doctors, ran several errands in town and returned home 1.5 hours after I left. Toddler was still in his pj's and DP was still sitting around in his pants. I had to park away from the house because the bin lorry was blocking the road (usually I can be seen driving past to the driveway) and so I approached the house without DP knowing I was back. I could see DS from the street emptying the craft drawers in the kitchen onto the floor and DP was in the other room on his phone.
DS hadn't had breakfast or had his bedtime nappy changed. DP hadn't done anything since I left. I changed both children, made DS breakfast and fed DD then hung the washing out before taking them both out to meet a friend at a local adventure playground. We were gone for three hours and all it seemed DP had managed to do was cut the grass. I then changed and fed the children again before walking the dog to collect the older children from school.
When we returned I made them a snack, hoovered, got the washing in, fed and changed baby, did half hour of ironing, played with the DC outside and then we needed to go food shopping. DP didn't utter a single word during food shopping, he left me to handle the DC and plan all the meals - he just trailed behind with his hands in his pockets.
When we returned he put the shopping away while I fed and changed baby and then I cooked tea while listening to two older DC reading. Baby was sleeping and toddler playing alone so DP had hands in pockets again. During tea I fed baby and helped DS then DP washed up while I played with the DC outside.
I then ran them a bath, washed them all, got pyjamas and clothes for tomorrow ready, read stories to them all and took them all to bed. I now have baby sleeping on me and DP is falling asleep on the sofa, again. I was up with DD at least five times last night and DS three times but still up for the day at 6.45. Aibu to poke him and tell him he's been bloody lazy today and does not have the right to be tired?!
