Stuff my husband has done

[yogini kiki]

How come we are always talking about mom fails?

Yesterday my husband gave our kid pesto, romesco sauce and coconut rum mango sauce because he thought it was baby food.  He still thinks he is the tits.

Tell me about silly things your husband has done---

My DH left my son on the couch while he "checked on something important" and LO "took a tumble". So to translate DH language...he left the LO unattended and he fell off the couch. Which I have warned him about umpteen million times. Grrrrrr.

@lizziebennett mine did the same thing! He sat her on the couch and turned to get something and she slid right off. It was one of those slow motion moments where I had to see it but couldn't get there in time

But I bet your husbands were both like....eh, stuff happens, I am still the best dad around.

My husband sleeps through the night.... No matter what, just lays there snoring.... I have to admit I have thought about using the pillow.

This morning my husband was talking to the baby (who was up all but two hours last night) and goes...."You need to sleep more buddy. You didnt sleep last night"  Which leads me to believe that he was in fact, pretending to sleep all last night while I was up with the baby.

Yes, bc literally later that day he left LO unattended in the high chair w/o the tray on where he could have fell on the hard floor from a pretty high position.  I flipped my shit.  #facepalm

H nearly tipped DD right out of her infant car seat bc he was swinging her and forgot to buckle her in. We were in a busy parking lot.

[acarpediem]

Every time I'm trying to get LO back to sleep, H tries to play with him. He stimulates him just enough where he is barely awake and then grumpy because now no one is playing with him. H then proceeds to say, ok gotta get ready for work now. I then have to deal with an epic meltdown every morning. Why do men pick the worst times to play with the baby.

A long time ago, D fell off the couch under my supervision. Despite knowing how bad it upset me, FI brings it up ALL THE TIME. Any time she whacks herself in the head, "Don't worry, her head has seen worse." Any time she is rolling around on the floor, "Don't worry she's been there before."

Your FI would be wise to wear a cup every second of every day.

My first thought reading this was, "How would that protect sudsy's DD's head?" I need more sleep. ?

Another falling off the couch...I was hooked up to the pump and slow-mo tried to catch her while spilling milk everywhere with my boobs flopping all over.

H has bumped her head on the roof of the car more than once putting her in her car seat...then blames on him being so tall. No, you're just not that careful.

We talk mom fails and make sappy commercials to showcase how awesome being a dad is. Just the title of dad alone is enough to erect a statue in their honor

Every day

Mine does this too, and then feels the need to ask me each morning, "how did DD sleep last night?"  It drives me insane.  If she suddenly isn't waking up 3+ times a night, I will be sure to let you know, DH!  Until then, just keep enjoying your uninterrupted 7 hours.

My H is usually pretty good but last week I was very tired one day and his response was "well didn't you sleep between wakeups?" I didn't even know what to say...

[tinkl0ver]

We were running late for an appointment and I needed to get dressed so I told SO to get emma dressed, passed him the outfit I wanted him to put on her and left to get ready. It wasn't until we got to the car I noticed he put her outfit on backwards. It was a footed jumper thingy. How do you put a footed outfit on backwards?

[sweetpies]

While I went to a sorority meeting, DH decided to run a quick errand without first feeding LO or taking milk with him. DH called me up and was frantic because he couldn't figure out why LO kept crying. I never had to say a word, because listening to LO wail was all DH needed to remember never to do it again.

I know H has done some stupid crap because he is nowhere near perfect, but honestly he is way more protective of the boys than I am. I let J do all kinds of stuff that H will say no to and I let him eat food that falls on the ground. Or when Max was first born he would yell at me to put him in the RNP in case I fell asleep even if it meant Max woke up and screamed for an hour. I guess that was a stupid thing he did.

This would be husband - in fact he's worn socks like that, out, in public. Close enough right?  They both are white and grey

First world husband problem - MH does the laundry and folds it, and puts it away where it doesn't belong.

(As in, the 5 mo baby girl clothes mixed up with the 24 mo baby girl clothes mixed up with the 2t boy clothes....how can you *not* know what clothing goes to which kid?)

He thought one of them was just inside out!  But to be fair, I didn't even notice until LO's lunchtime feed.
