Mr. Mom!

Yesterday Drew was off work, so he decided that he wanted to keep Anna Kate. I knew that he was definitely capable of this task, but I knew that he had no idea of how busy "staying home" would be! First of all, she usually sleeps until 7 or 7:30, however yesterday she was ready to begin her day with daddy at 5:30! (I was already at work!) I got home at 3:30 and he was feeding her, so I offered to take over. I promise I only had her for 2 minutes and I look over to find this....


Gotta love the pacifier on the leg! You can't see it in the picture, but he also had spit-up on his shirt! Priceless.

So after feeding Anna Kate, I walk into the kitchen to find this.....

a half eaten hot pocket! I yell from the kitchen, "Drew, what did you have for lunch?" He said, "aw man, I forgot that I was eating lunch." I cracked up, since there are many days I think why am I so hungry? Oh yeah it's 4:00 and I have yet to finish my pop tart!! Needless to say, he quickly discovered that staying at home did not mean watching tv all day! I think he now has a new appreciation for moms! He did a great job though. He managed to do 1 load of laundry and put clean sheets on the bed (since she had spit up all over him and the bed at 5:30am!) Good job Drew!! Gotta love him for trying!
