In the last 15 weeks this dad has taken on a whole slew of new responsibilities. 

~In addition to kitchen clean up and dish duty, he has learned to fend for himself on the days there isn't much on the table. 

~He has taken on our laundry pile as we continue our 3 loads a day habit.

~He happily entertains the kids while I entertain a 7 o' clock bedtime.

~He incorporated grocery shopping into his weekend routine.

~He has changed his shampoo, soap, shaving cream, and deodorant scents several times in an attempt to please.

~He puts up with our new two hour afternoon nap routine without asking "What'd you do all day?"

~He tackled the windows, walls, tub, toilet, and floors with gusto just in time for the Spring sunshine.

All this while experiencing some sympathy symptoms of his own.

While keeping a secret (which has never been his strength) until we were ready to share it with you.

Share what, you ask?

...this dad will forever more be the father to 4!
