I really need to give my hubby some credit.  He has changed so much.  He went from not helping me out with anything at all.  He didn't do anything with Lukas for the whole 1st year of his life.  Now he actually changes diapers and spends time with him.  He helps out more around the house.  I still nag him about playing WOW a lot b/c it does still bother me but I have to admit that he's really improved as a father.  For a while I wasn't even letting myself be happy with him and wasn't sure if I loved him.  Lately, things have been a lot better though and I realize that I really do love him and that I can be happy with him.  My whole life I've struggled with being happy.  It's like I'm scared to be happy b/c I don't want to get let down but I know that's not the way to live so I'm going to try to let myself be happy for once.  I've got a great husband and a beautiful son.  I'm realizing that I really am blessed.

That is great!  I am glad that he is helping out more!  He seems like a good guy....sometimes it just takes guys longer than us to adjust to having kids and things!  I am really happy for you!

Jenna...

good for you!!!

My sis plays WOW.... it is a consuming way to spend a day LOL.

I'm like you with the over judging my husband.... One day I realized that I had to let him love me and the kids in his way. Just because it wasn't how I wanted the love doesn't mean his love is not genuine. It is how he feels his love is best expressed. It is still annoying when he takes off to the mountains for the weekend and I stay with both kids alone. If I ask for 2 hours I get a riot act about needing to keep one of the boys with me because it's too hard for him to have both (alone).

Then he'll do something so sweet that I forget what made me grumpy.

I think husbands are just like that though, it takes them a little while to catch on to the rhythm
