I think that it is awesome that your husband helps you with the chores, lucky...(your name says it all
I too feel like I should do it all because I am home and don't think he should do chores when he gets home. Maybe I will try to ask him to do a little more around the house because it is driving me insane. A while back he told me how important a clean house is to him, but needless to say with a 15 month old running around it is so hard to find time to make things look the way I would like for them too. He makes comments sometimes about the way the house looks, or that he needs some of his clothes washed, and it really frustrates me because he doesn't do anything around the house and it is not like I didn't notice that the laudry was piling up or anything. It is like he assumes that it is my responsibility to do all of the housework and raise the kids and his is to work outside the home. The way I see it, my job is raising the kids, his job is working outside the home, and OUR job is maintain a clean atmosphere. Maybe I am off the deep end here, but my mom raised us with the same atmosphere as yours, lucky, and a game of tag or barbies or whatever is always more important than a perfect house. Besides before I know it my baby will be all grown up and even then there will still be laundry to do and dishes to wash.
