  • Someone to give you a break more often
  • A bigger vehicle
  • A bigger house
  • More SAHM friends
  • More kids!
  • Nothing, my life is PERFECT!

I would like hubby to help out more. I realize that he works very hard and deserves time to relax. BUT (there always is a but) I work hard trying to keep the house running smoothly and some days one thing will not get done, such as the dishwasher will not get emptied becasue I was playing with my son and daughter. So after dinner instead of emptying hte dishwasher to put his dirty plate in he'll leave the plate (scraps and all) on the table, walk away and go watch TV. Which would be ok if he would distract our DS (14 months) so that I could empty the dishwasher without the little helping hands going for the sharp utensils. But no I'll ask him to get Jordan and he'll say Come Here, which Jordan does and then he turns right around and comes back to help. My DH just sits there watching tv and ignoring the fact I'm trying to put glassware into the cupboard with a little boy carrying a plate AND a spoon attached to my leg!!!!

He works from 7am to 3pm and when he gets home his day is over. I work from 600am (when DS and DD wake up) until 10-11pm. And all I would like him to help with is to play with the kids so that I can fold laundry, empty the dishwasher things like that. Other than that my life is perfect.

More sleep time is what I voted, but a maid would also be really nice! LOL!
