Mr. Mom

The dynamic in our house (mom’s role vs. dad’s role) is pretty typical I think. We do complete each other. John works out of the house full time plus. I work part time at work and the rest of my time is spent running the house and taking care of the kids. My days and nights totally hinge on multitasking. Like while cooking dinner I sing (boy am I a good singer too…heheheh) to the girls. I know this is a good strategy for learning but during cooking I do it out of necessity for entertaining. After working all day John comes running in and just gets to be mister funny guy. Which is good because not only is it a good stress reliever for him but also I lack in the silly dept. So yesterday I took Av to a b-day party while John and Cami stayed home. They had a great time together and he had her eating dinner when I got home which was nice. He had this long story to tell me about this diaper he had to change and how she peed in the middle of changing it. Poor John. Later after dinner I noticed a funny odor in the air. Rotten egg Cami was back so we headed upstairs to change her. I laid her down on the changing table and then noticed it was soaking wet. PEE! So yes he did take care of changing a pee soaked Cami but got distracted before cleaning up the pee on the changing table. Nothing in a million years would have distracted me from cleaning that up right then and there. He is the fun one I must admit. After I changed Cami we went outside to join Av and John. Av was dressed in snowman one piece footed PJ’s, purple croc on one foot and a rubber boot on the other but her hair was still in perfect pigtails with Gymboree bows from the party. Boy did both John and Av think it was hilarious.
